Chemogenetic Activation of G12 Signaling Thickens the Epidermis With Enhanced Barrier Function

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
In this study, we investigated the role of G12 signaling in the epidermis using a keratinocyte‐specific chemogenetic approach. Activation of G12 signaling promoted keratinocyte differentiation and enhanced epidermal barrier function by upregulating filaggrin, claudin‐1, and ceramide.

Neurobiology of the Edg2 Lysophosphatidic Acid Receptor

Japanese Journal of Pharmacology, 2001
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate) is a well-known lipid growth factor that is found widely in various tissues including brain and is reported to drive different intracellular signaling pathways. In the nervous system, LPA studies have drawn many neuroscientists' attention because it has some actions related to neurogenesis ...

Polarized effects of adenosine on blood–brain barrier integrity: Tightening from the luminal and opening from the abluminal side

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 16, Page 4761-4777, August 2026.
Background and Purpose Adenosine as a signalling molecule modifies blood–brain barrier (BBB) tightness in pathological conditions. Our aim was to investigate the direct and polarized effects of adenosine on the BBB using co‐culture and in vivo models. Experimental Approach The expression of adenosine receptors was measured by qRT‐PCR.

Lysophosphatidic Acid (LPA) Induces Plasma Exudation and Histamine Release in Mice via LPA Receptors

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
.: Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), the simplest of the water-soluble phospholipids, can evoke various biological responses. The present study examined the activity of LPA to induce plasma exudation and histamine release in mice.

The effect of lysophosphatidic acid on myometrial contractility and the mRNA transcription of its receptors in the myometrium at different stages of endometrosis in mares

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Endometrosis (chronic degenerative endometritis) results in morphological changes in the equine endometrium and impairs its secretory function. However, the effect of this condition on the myometrium remains unclear. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)

Structural insights into the committed step of bacterial phospholipid biosynthesis

Nature Communications, 2017
The first step in bacterial phospholipid biosynthesis is the acylation of glycerol 3-phosphate to form lysophosphatidic acid. Here, the authors present the high resolution crystal structure of the glycerol 3-phosphate acyltransferase PlsY, a membrane ...
