The Lysophospholipase PNPLA7 Controls Hepatic Choline and Methionine Metabolism

Biomolecules, 2023
The in vivo roles of lysophospholipase, which cleaves a fatty acyl ester of lysophospholipid, remained unclear. Recently, we have unraveled a previously unrecognized physiological role of the lysophospholipase PNPLA7, a member of the Ca2+-independent ...

Herbal choline as an alternative to choline chloride in the diet of nursery piglets

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2023
The objective of this work was to evaluate the replacement of choline chloride supplementation by herbal choline in the diet of nursery piglets. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks (initial weight and sex) with 80 piglets, in five ...

Sphingomyelin exhibits greatly enhanced protection compared with egg yolk phosphatidylcholine against detergent bile salts1

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
Inclusion of phosphatidylcholine within bile salt micelles protects against bile salt-induced cytotoxicity. In addition to phosphatidylcholine, bile may contain significant amounts of sphingomyelin, particularly under cholestatic conditions.

Dietary N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids decrease biliary cholesterol saturation in gallstone disease [PDF]

, 1992
Because fatty acid composition of biliary phospholipids influences cholesterol secretion into bile, we investigated whether replacement of n-1 monounsaturated or n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids with n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in biliary ...

Effect of phosphatidylcholine molecular species on the uptake of HDL triglycerides and cholesteryl esters by the liver.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
It has previously been shown that the hydrolysis of high density lipoprotein (HDL) phospholipids by hepatic lipase promotes the hepatic uptake of triglyceride and cholesteryl ester from HDL.

Effects of hydrophobicity on turnover of plasma high density lipoproteins labeled with phosphatidylcholine ethers in the rat

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
Rat high density lipoproteins (HDL) were labeled with a series of phosphatidylcholines and ether analogs of phosphatidylcholine. The rates of turnover of the phosphatidylcholine ethers in the rat decreased as a function of increasing hydrophobicity and ...

Does litomosoides sigmodontis synthesize dimethylethanolamine from choline? [PDF]

, 2008
Juvenile female Litomosoides sigmodontis secrete a protein (Juv-p120) highly modified with dimethylethanolamine (DMAE). In an attempt to establish the source of this decoration worms were pulsed with [3H]-choline and [3H]-ethanolamine and the radio ...

Barbiturate Interaction with Phosphatidylcholine [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1972
A hydrogen-bonding interaction between phenobarbital or pentobarbital with phosphatidylcholine in chloroform is indicated by the effects of added phosphatidylcholine on the infrared and proton magnetic resonance spectra of these barbiturates. The nitrogenbound proton of the barbiturate and the orthophosphate moiety of the phosphatidylcholine molecule ...

In vivo stability of ester- and ether-linked phospholipid-containing liposomes as measured by perturbed angular correlation spectroscopy [PDF]

, 1988
To evaluate liposome formulations for use as intracellular sustained-release drug depots, we have compared the uptake and degradation in rat liver and spleen of liposomes of various compositions, containing as their bulk phospholipid an ether-linked ...

Phosphatidylcholine synthesis for incorporation into membranes or for secretion as plasma lipoproteins by Golgi membranes of rat liver.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1987
Phosphatidylcholine, the major phospholipid of very low density lipoproteins, is packaged with triglyceride in the Golgi cisternae. CTP-phosphocholine cytidyltransferase and CDP-choline phosphotransferase activities of Golgi subfractions were higher than
