Lysolipid containing liposomes for transendothelial drug delivery [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Designing efficient 'vectors', to deliver therapeutics across endothelial barriers, in a controlled manner, remains one of the key goals of drug development. Recently, transcytosis of liposome encapsulated fluorescence marker calcein across a

Blocking Sphingosine 1‐phosphate Metabolism With Fingolimod Prevents the Progression of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells Calcification in Chronic Kidney Disease

Journal of Cellular Physiology, Volume 241, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Patients with chronic kidney disease, and particularly those under hemodialysis, are prone to develop cardiovascular complications, mostly due to the exacerbation of vascular calcification. Vascular calcification relies on the transdifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells into calcifying cells.

Metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids in human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells [PDF]

, 2017
The application of human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hBMSCs) for regenerative or immunomodulatory therapies, e.g. treatment of the graft-versus-host disease, requires in vitro expansion of the cells.

Sphingosine Phosphate Lyase Expression Is Essential for Normal Development in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

, 2003
Sphingolipids are ubiquitous membrane constituents whose metabolites function as signaling molecules in eukaryotic cells. Sphingosine 1-phosphate, a key sphingolipid second messenger, regulates proliferation, motility, invasiveness, and programmed cell ...

Course of Pregnancy in a Woman With Familial Chylomicronemia Syndrome Treated With Plozasiran, a Small Interfering RNA Against ApoC3

JIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Persistent chylomicronemia is associated with severe hypertriglyceridemia (sHTG) and plasma triglycerides (TG) levels sustainably > 10 mmol/L (880 mg/dL) despite lipid lowering therapies. The main risk of persistent chylomicronemia is acute pancreatitis (AP). During the second and third trimester of pregnancy, TG levels significantly increase,

Plasma C24:0- and C26:0-lysophosphatidylcholines are reliable biomarkers for the diagnosis of peroxisomal β-oxidation disorders

Journal of Lipid Research
The gold-standard diagnostic test for peroxisomal disorders (PDs) is plasma concentration analysis of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs). However, this method’s time-consuming nature and limitations in cases which present normal VLCFA levels ...

Snake and spider toxins induce a rapid recovery of function of botulinum neurotoxin paralysed neuromuscular junction [PDF]

, 2015
Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) and some animal neurotoxins (-Bungarotoxin, -Btx, from elapid snakes and -Latrotoxin, -Ltx, from black widow spiders) are pre-synaptic neurotoxins that paralyse motor axon terminals with similar clinical outcomes in patients.

Surface loops of extracellular phospholipase A1 determine both substrate specificity and preference for lysophospholipids

Journal of Lipid Research, 2012
Members of the pancreatic lipase family exhibit both lipase activity toward triacylglycerol and/or phospholipase A1 (PLA1) activity toward certain phospholipids.

Characterization and relative quantification of phospholipids based on methylation and stable isotopic labeling[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2016
Phospholipids (PLs), one of the lipid categories, are not only the primary building blocks of cellular membranes, but also can be split to produce products that function as second messengers in signal transduction and play a pivotal role in numerous ...
