Smooth microsomes. a trap for cholesteryl ester formed in hepatic microsomes.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1980
Acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase was found predominantly (85%) in RNA-rich microsomes, the rest being in RNA-poor and smooth microsomes. However, the esterified cholesterol concentration of smooth microsomes was 2-fold greater than that of RNA-rich microsomes, suggesting the possibility of an interaction between RNA-rich and smooth microsomes.

ACBP and cholesterol differentially alter fatty acyl CoA utilization by microsomal ACAT

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
Microsomal acyl CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (AC57) is stimulated in vitro and/or in intact cells by proteins that bind and transfer both substrates, cholesterol, and fatty acyl CoA.

Abnormal subcellular distribution of GLUT4 protein in obese and insulin-treated diabetic female dogs

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004
The GLUT4 transporter plays a key role in insulin-induced glucose uptake, which is impaired in insulin resistance. The objective of the present study was to investigate the tissue content and the subcellular distribution of GLUT4 protein in 4- to 12-year-

Influence of major structural features of tocopherols and tocotrienols on their ω-oxidation by tocopherol-ω-hydroxylase

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Human cytochrome P450 4F2 (CYP4F2) catalyzes the initial ω-hydroxylation reaction in the metabolism of tocopherols and tocotrienols to carboxychromanols and is, to date, the only enzyme shown to metabolize vitamin E.

Antimutagenic effect of essential oil of sage (Salvia officinalis L.) and its fractions against UV-induced mutations in bacterial and yeast cells [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2005
The inhibition of spontaneous and UV-induced mutations by essential oil (EO) of sage (Salvia officinalis L.) and its fractions F1-F5 containing different proportions of mono- and sesquiterpenes was studied with the Salmonella/microsome, E.

Inhibition of vacuolar-type (H+)-ATPase by the cytostatic macrolide apicularen A and its role in apicularen A-induced apoptosis in RAW 264.7 cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Apicularen A and the known vacuolar-type (H+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) inhibitor bafilomycin A1 induced apoptosis of RAW 264.7 cells, while apicularen B, an N-acetyl-glucosamine glycoside of apicularen A, was far less effective.

PARP16 is a tail-anchored endoplasmic reticulum protein required for the PERK- and IRE1α-mediated unfolded protein response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs; also known as ADP-ribosyl transferase D proteins) modify acceptor proteins with ADP-ribose modifications of varying length (reviewed in refs 1, 2, 3). PARPs regulate key stress response pathways, including DNA damage

Lipid metabolism reprograming by SREBP1‐PCSK9 targeting sensitizes pancreatic cancer to immunochemotherapy

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pancreatic cancer's aberrant lipid metabolism fuels cell growth, invasion, and metastasis, yet its impact on immune surveillance and immunotherapy is unclear. This study investigated how sterol regulatory element‐binding transcription factor 1 (SREBP1)‐driven lipid metabolism affects the tumor microenvironment (TME) in pancreatic ...
