The Contribution of Cholesterol and Squalene Synthase in Cancer: Molecular Mechanisms, Lipid Rafts and Therapeutic Approaches

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A plethora of cellular signaling pathways are dysregulated in cancer cells, promoting carcinogenesis and migration. Cholesterol has recently been linked to cancer by several subcellular mechanisms, especially by its involvement in the formation of lipid rafts, which promote oncogenic signaling and cancer cell invasion. Squalene synthase (SQS),

The salt stress-induced LPA response in Chlamydomonas is produced via PLA2 hydrolysis of DGK-generated phosphatidic acid[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
The unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas has frequently been used as a eukaryotic model system to study intracellular phospholipid signaling pathways in response to environmental stresses.

Calcium signaling in plant defense

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Calcium signaling acts as a central hub in plant immunity, translating pathogen perception into defense responses. This review highlights the channels, sensors, and signaling networks involved, and discusses how pathogens subvert calcium dynamics, as well as how this knowledge may inspire innovative strategies for engineering durable crop resistance ...

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Upregulation of sphingomyelin and ABCA8 in response to TDP‐43 pathology in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis brain

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Increases in sphingomyelin in response to TDP‐43 pathology in the disease‐affected motor cortex of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) brain. Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressing neurodegenerative disease characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons and the presence of TAR DNA‐binding protein 43 (TDP‐43 ...

Songorine inhibits mitophagy in chronic heart failure via the TBC1D15/Fis1/Rab7A pathway

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and purpose Songorine (SGR) is an alkaloid extracted from Aconitum carichaelii Debx. and has a demonstrated role in cardiac dysfunction. Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a severe clinical syndrome leading to functional impairment and death, primarily due to the deterioration of energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes. However, the precise

Sensing of cardiolipin exposure on plasma membranes of apoptotic cells by EryA‐mCherry protein

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
An aegerolysin protein erylysin A (EryA) fused with mCherry binds to artificial lipid vesicles supplemented with cardiolipin (CL). This binding is much more specific than that of annexin V, which binds various negatively charged glycerophospholipids (PG, PS, PI). In mammalian cells, the CL exposition at the membrane surface represents an early hallmark

Dynamics of the CD9 interactome during bacterial infection of epithelial cells by proximity labelling proteomics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We describe the CD9 interactome in epithelial cells for the first time. The interactome is diverse and dynamic and changes dependent on infection with specific bacteria. We validate these data by showing functional interaction between CD9 with CD44 or CD147. We therefore demonstrate that CD9 is a universal organiser of bacterial adhesion platforms able

Intestinal DHA-PA-PG axis promotes digestive organ expansion by mediating usage of maternally deposited yolk lipids

Nature Communications
Although the metabolism of yolk lipids such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is pivotal for embryonic development, the underlying mechanism remains elusive.
