Regulation of LPA receptor function by estrogens
17beta-Estradiol induced LPA(1) receptor desensitization in C9 cells stably expressing LPA(1) receptors and transiently expressing estrogen receptor alpha. Such desensitization was evidenced by a reduction in lysophosphatidic acid-mediated Ca(2+)mobilization and it was associated to receptor phosphorylation and internalization.

Endogenous lysophosphatidic acid (LPA1) receptor agonists demonstrate ligand bias between calcium and ERK signalling pathways in human lung fibroblasts [PDF]
Background and Purpose Human lung fibroblasts (HLF) express high levels of the LPA1 receptor, a GPCR that responds to the endogenous lipid mediator, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA).

A reflection of the lasting contributions from Dr. Robert Bittman to sterol trafficking, sphingolipid and phospholipid research. [PDF]
With the passing of Dr. Robert Bittman from pancreatic cancer on the 1st October 2014, the lipid research field lost one of the most influential and significant personalities.

Cooperation of Gq, Gi, and G12/13 in Protein Kinase D Activation and Phosphorylation Induced by Lysophosphatidic Acid [PDF]
To examine the contribution of different G-protein pathways to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)-induced protein kinase D (PKD) activation, we tested the effect of LPA on PKD activity in murine embryonic cell lines deficient in Galpha q/11 (Galpha q/11 KO ...

Autotaxin-Lysophosphatidic Acid: From Inflammation to Cancer Development
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a ubiquitous lysophospholipid and one of the main membrane-derived lipid signaling molecules. LPA acts as an autocrine/paracrine messenger through at least six G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), known as LPA1–6, to induce

Lysophosphatidic Acid and Glutamatergic Transmission
Signaling through bioactive lipids regulates nervous system development and functions. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a membrane-derived lipid mediator particularly enriched in brain, is able to induce many responses in neurons and glial cells by affecting

Focal adhesions as mechanosensors: the two-spring model [PDF]
Adhesion-dependent cells actively sense the mechanical properties of their environment through mechanotransductory processes at focal adhesions, which are integrin-based contacts connecting the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton.

Lysophosphatidic acid enhances survival of human CD34(+) cells in ischemic conditions [PDF]
Several clinical trials are exploring therapeutic effect of human CD34(+) cells in ischemic diseases, including myocardial infarction. Unfortunately, most of the cells die few days after delivery.

Identification of an intracellular receptor for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA): LPA is a transcellular PPARγ agonist [PDF]
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a pluripotent lipid mediator acting through plasma membrane-associated LPAxreceptors that transduce many, but not all, of its effects. We identify peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) as an intracellular receptor for LPA.
