Melanoma cells break down LPA to establish local gradients that drive chemotactic dispersal. [PDF]
The high mortality of melanoma is caused by rapid spread of cancer cells, which occurs unusually early in tumour evolution. Unlike most solid tumours, thickness rather than cytological markers or differentiation is the best guide to metastatic potential.

In silico analysis of missense mutations in LPAR6 reveals abnormal phospholipid signaling pathway leading to hypotrichosis. [PDF]
Autosomal recessive hypotrichosis is a rare genetic irreversible hair loss disorder characterized by sparse scalp hair, sparse to absent eyebrows and eyelashes, and sparse axillary and body hair.

Lysophosphatidic acid receptors in cancer pathobiology.
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptors (LPA₁ to LPA₆) are G protein-coupled transmembrane and mediate a variety of biological responses through the binding of LPA, such as cell proliferation, migration, morphogenesis and differentiation. Previously, high secretion levels of LPA were found in blood and ascites from patients with aggressive ovarian cancer.

Exosomes promote pre-metastatic niche formation in ovarian cancer. [PDF]
Ovarian cancer is one of the most common gynecological malignancies. Upon initial diagnosis, the majority of patients present with widespread metastatic growth within the peritoneal cavity. This metastatic growth occurs in stages, with the formation of a

Lysophosphatidic acid receptor agonists and antagonists (WO2010051053) [PDF]
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lipid involved in signaling pathways that result in cell survival, proliferation, migration and invasion. These cellular responses are a critical element of both normal development as well as pathophysiology.

TRIP6 Enhances Lysophosphatidic Acid-induced Cell Migration by Interacting with the Lysophosphatidic Acid 2 Receptor [PDF]
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) induces actin rearrangement, focal adhesion assembly, and cell migration through the activation of small G protein Rho and its downstream effectors. These diverse cellular responses are mediated by its associated G protein-coupled receptors.

Phosphorylation and Internalization of Lysophosphatidic Acid Receptors LPA1, LPA2, and LPA3. [PDF]
The lysophosphatidic acid receptors LPA1, LPA2, and LPA3 were individually expressed in C9 cells and their signaling and regulation were studied. Agonist-activation increases intracellular calcium concentration in a concentration-dependent fashion ...
