Sets of coregulated serum lipids are associated with Alzheimer's disease pathophysiology [PDF]
Introduction: Comorbidity with metabolic diseases indicates that lipid metabolism plays a role in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Comprehensive lipidomic analysis can provide new insights into the altered lipid metabolism in AD.

A water-soluble fluorescent phosphatidylcholine, 1,2-bis[4-(1-pyreno-butanoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPybPC) has been used to develop a sensitive, continuous assay for pure lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) in solution.

Metabolic Signatures of Lung Cancer in Biofluids: NMR-Based Metabonomics of Blood Plasma [PDF]
In this work, the variations in the metabolic profile of blood plasma from lung cancer patients and healthy controls were investigated through NMR-based metabonomics, to assess the potential of this approach for lung cancer screening and diagnosis.

Lysophosphatidylcholine-cholesterol complex.
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.

Automated workflow-based exploitation of pathway databases provides new insights into genetic associations of metabolite profiles [PDF]
Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that associate with clinical phenotypes, but these SNPs usually explain just a small part of the heritability and have relatively modest

Lysophosphatidylcholine Drives Neuroblast Cell Fate
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.

Maternal and fetal metabolomic signatures in regard to birth outcome and gestational disease [PDF]
Specific birth outcomes and gestational diabetes were shown to be associated with maternal and fetal metabolic alterations. Results of the current studies showed a higher number of associations between birth outcomes/gestational disease and fetal ...

Immunomodulatory Actions of Lysophosphatidylcholine [PDF]
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.
