Lysophosphatidylcholine Promotes Phagosome Maturation and Regulates Inflammatory Mediator Production Through the Protein Kinase A–Phosphatidylinositol 3 Kinase–p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Signaling Pathway During Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection in Mouse Macrophages

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Tuberculosis is caused by the infectious agent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Mtb has various survival strategies, including blockade of phagosome maturation and inhibition of antigen presentation. Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) is a major phospholipid

Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) Extract Alleviates Atherosclerosis in ApoE^-/- Mice. [PDF]

Mol Nutr Food Res
Oral administration of purslane extract at 400 mg/lg/day for 4 weeks reduces atherosclerotic plaque formation, endothelial dysfunction, and vascular inflammation through suppressing the MAPK pathway and activating AMPK/PI3K/Akt/eNOS pathway in ApoE−/− mice. ABSTRACT Portulaca oleracea L.

Lysophosphatidylcholine-cholesterol complex.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1982
Lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC) and cholesterol at 1:1 molar ratio form multilamellar and, on sonication, unilamellar liposomes in water. Calorimetric scannings of varied mixtures in water give evidence for the existence of a 1:1 complex of the lipids.

Berberine Suppresses Colonic Inflammation in Dextran Sulfate Sodium–Induced Murine Colitis Through Inhibition of Cytosolic Phospholipase A2 Activity

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Ulcerative colitis (UC) causes chronic inflammation and damage to the colonic mucosal layer. Recent studies have reported significant changes in phosphatidylcholine (PC) and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) in UC patients and oral administration of PC has ...

In Vitro Modeling of Age-Associated Lipid Mediator's Impact on Vascular Biology Following Platelet Concentrate Transfusion. [PDF]

Aging Cell
Age‐associated LPA affects adverse reactions and alters platelet and endothelial biology following platelet concentrate transfusion. Age‐associated LPC, S1P could be involved in adverse reactions, in platelet and endothelium biology following a PC transfusion.

Lysophosphatidylcholine Drives Neuroblast Cell Fate

Molecular Neurobiology, 2015
Neuronal differentiation plays a key role during embryogenesis. However, based on the capacity of neuronal stem cells to either generate or regenerate neurons and because differentiation stops aberrant neuroblasts proliferation, neuronal differentiation is crucial during neuropathological conditions.

Immunomodulatory Actions of Lysophosphatidylcholine [PDF]

Biomolecules and Therapeutics, 2008
Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) is an endogenous phospholipid. LPC has various stimulating or modulating activities on immune cells, including lymphocytes, monocytes/macrophages and neutrophils. Stud- ies generally revealed pro-inflammatory activities of LPC, but accumulating evidence indicates that LPC has also anti-inflammatory actions.

Quantification and Localisation of New Brain Lipid Synthesis Using Deuterium Oxide and High Resolution Mass Spectrometry

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry and mass spectrometry imaging were used in combination with deuterium oxide administration to quantify and localise newly synthesised myelin lipids in the mouse brain. This methodology, used here to show sites of myelin repair, enables the measurement of dynamic lipid synthesis in living systems and ...

Astrocytes are mainly responsible for the polyunsaturated fatty acid enrichment in blood–brain barrier endothelial cells in vitro

Journal of Lipid Research, 1998
To determine the respective roles of endothelial cells from brain capillaries and astrocytes in the conversion of circulating 18:2n–6 and 18:3n–3 into 20:4n–6 and 22:6n–3, respectively, a coculture of the two cell types mimicking the in vivo blood–brain ...
