Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Oxysterols. Players in different metabolic leagues
In animals, cholesterol (C27H46O; 3b-Hydroxy-5-cholestene/5- Cholesten-3b-ol) is a widely present molecule. Iitially named cholesterine, cholesterol was discovered in 1815 by Eugène Chevreul.

Cholesterol oxidation: Health hazard and the role of antioxidants in prevention
Cholesterol is a molecule with a double bond in its structure and is therefore susceptible to oxidation leading to the formation of oxysterols. These oxidation products are found in many commonly-consumed foods and are formed during their manufacture and/

Are side-chain oxidized oxysterols regulators also in vivo?
Oxsterols are oxygenated metabolites of cholesterol that are short-lived intermediates or end products in cholesterol excretion pathways. They are present in very low concentrations in mammalian systems, always accompanied by a high excess of cholesterol.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

A comprehensive review on oxysterols and related diseases
The present review aims at providing a complete and comprehensive summary of current literature relevant to oxysterols and related diseases. Oxidation of cholesterol leads to the formation of a large number of oxidation products, generally known as ...

Effects of dietary fatty acids and cholesterol excess on liver injury: A lipidomic approach
Lipid accumulation is the hallmark of Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and has been suggested to play a role in promoting fatty liver inflammation. Previous findings indicate that during oxidative stress conditions excess cholesterol autoxidizes

Our experimental evidence supports a model in which ALO targets the HSPA8‐CMA‐ATP6V1A axis to induce lysosomal hyperacidification and initiate osmotic and lipidomic stress. These changes are associated with LMP and loss of lysosomal integrity in prostate cancer cells.

Oxysterols in Metabolic Syndrome: From Bystander Molecules to Bioactive Lipids
Oxysterols are cholesterol metabolites now considered bona fide bioactive lipids. Recent studies have identified new receptors for oxysterols involved in immune and inflammatory processes, hence reviving their appeal.
