Does a Change from Whole to Powdered Food (Artemia franciscana eggs) Increase Oviposition in the Ladybird Coleomegilla maculata?

Insects, 2015
The limited availability of alternative foods to replace natural prey hinders cost-effective mass production of ladybird beetles for augmentative biological control. We compared the effects of powdered vs. whole Artemia franciscana (A.

CD36 Mediated Fatty Acid-Induced Podocyte Apoptosis via Oxidative Stress [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Hyperlipidemia-induced apoptosis mediated by fatty acid translocase CD36 is associated with increased uptake of ox-LDL or fatty acid in macrophages, hepatocytes and proximal tubular epithelial cells, leading to atherosclerosis, liver damage ...

Preparation of photothermal palmitic acid/cholesterol liposomes

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, 2018
AbstractIndocyanine green (ICG) is the only FDA‐approved near‐infrared dye and it is currently used clinically for diagnostic applications. However, there is significant interest in using ICG for triggered drug delivery applications and heat ablation therapy. Unfortunately, free ICG has a short half‐life in vivo and is rapidly cleared from circulation.

Fatty Acid Oxidation and Meiotic Resumption in Mouse Oocytes [PDF]

, 2009
We have examined the potential role of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-induced meiotic maturation. Etomoxir and malonyl CoA, two inhibitors of carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 (CPT1), and thus FAO, blocked meiotic ...

Post‐Translational Modifications in Cilia and Ciliopathies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes current understanding of post‐translational modifications (PTMs) in ciliary proteins and emphasizes their roles in ciliary formation, homeostasis, and signaling. This review also discusses the implication of PTM dysregulation in ciliopathies and explores therapeutic strategies targeting PTM‐modifying enzymes.

Palmitic acid stimulates glucose incorporation in the adipocyte by a mechanism likely involving intracellular calcium.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
The effect of palmitic acid on basal and insulin-stimulated incorporation of glucose into rat adipocytes was studied. Palmitic acid (2.40 mM) stimulated basal as well as insulin-stimulated glucose incorporation in rat adipocytes three and twofold ...

Engineered Tissue Models to Decode Host–Microbiota Interactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Host–Microbiota interactions in the human body. Created in BioRender. Ghezzi, C. (2025) https://BioRender.com/ihivskg. Abstract A mutualistic co‐evolution exists between the host and its associated microbiota in the human body. Bacteria establish ecological niches in various tissues of the body, locally influencing their physiology and functions, but ...

Direct interaction between EgFABP1, a fatty acid binding protein from echinococcus granulosus, and phospholipid membranes [PDF]

, 2012
<p>Background: Growth and maintenance of hydatid cysts produced by Echinococcus granulosus have a high requirement for host lipids for biosynthetic processes, membrane building and possibly cellular and developmental signalling.

FABP4 as a Mediator of Lipid Metabolism and Pregnant Uterine Dysfunction in Obesity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Obesity during late pregnancy contributes to uterine smooth muscle dysfunction, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. This study identifies fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) as a key player in the process, mediating excessive fatty acid uptake, lipid accumulation, and mitochondrial dysfunction in myometrial cells. FABP4 could be a novel uterine
