Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

Interfacial properties of most monofluorinated bile acids deviate markedly from the natural congeners

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
We characterized the air-water interfacial properties of four monofluorinated bile acids alone and in binary mixtures with a common lecithin, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), using an automated Langmuir-Pockels surface balance. We

Cancer therapy‐related cardiotoxicity is associated with distinct alterations of the myocardial lipidome

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Lipidome changes in anthracycline‐induced cardiotoxicity (AIC). Aims Anthracyclines are key components of various chemotherapy regimens, but their clinical utility is limited by severe cardiotoxic side effects. Previous studies have suggested that anthracycline‐induced cardiotoxicity (AIC) may be driven by alterations in myocardial lipid metabolism ...

Quantitation of cholesterol crystallization from supersaturated model bile1

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2002
Cholesterol crystallization is an essential step in gallstone formation. Although spectrophotometry and nephelometry have been used for quantitation of crystallization, potential effects of crystal size and shape have not been evaluated.

X-Ray Kinematography of Temperature-Jump Relaxation Probes the Elastic Properties of Fluid Bilayers [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2000
The response kinetics of liquid crystalline phosphatidylcholine bilayer stacks to rapid, IR-laser induced temperature jumps has been studied by millisecond time-resolved x-ray diffraction. The system reacts on the fast temperature change by a discrete bilayer compression normal to its surface and a lateral bilayer expansion.

Role of Membrane GM1 on Early Neuronal Membrane Actions of Aβ During Onset of Alzheimer\u27s Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The ability of beta-amyloid peptide (Aβ) to disrupt the plasma membrane through formation of pores and membrane breakage has been previously described. However, the molecular determinants for these effects are largely unknown.

Exploring the Potential of Liposomal Delivery of Naringenin and Berberine for Browning Adipose Tissue and Obesity Management

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Biocompatible and biodegradable liposomes were developed to encapsulate naringenin (N) and berberine (B), enhancing their stability and bioavailability. Their effects on thermogenesis and browning in 3T3‐L1 preadipocyte cells compared to their free forms were investigated.

Effect of Bilayer Thickness on Membrane Bending Rigidity

open access: yes, 2004
The bending rigidity $k_c$ of bilayer vesicles self-assembled from amphiphilic diblock copolymers has been measured using single and dual-micropipet techniques.
