Elastic properties of polyunsaturated phosphatidylethanolamines influence rhodopsin function.

open access: yesFaraday discussions, 2013
Membranes with a high content of polyunsaturated phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) facilitate formation of metarhodopsin-II (M(II)), the photointermediate of bovine rhodopsin that activates the G protein transducin.

Photooxidation of glycated and non-glycated phosphatidylethanolamines monitored by mass spectrometry.

open access: yesJournal of Mass Spectrometry, 2013
Phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) are one of the major components of cells membranes, namely in skin and in retina, that are continuously exposed to solar UV radiation being major targets of photooxidation damage.

Phosphatidylethanolamine and Lysophosphatidylethanolamine

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1963
Abstract Phosphatidylethanolamine and Lysophosphatidylethanolamine belong to a group of phospholipids generally termed cephalins. The phospholipids are universally distributed among living organisms and are thought to be essential components of cell membranes.

Resolving the paradox of ferroptotic cell death: Ferrostatin-1 binds to 15LOX/PEBP1 complex, suppresses generation of peroxidized ETE-PE, and protects against ferroptosis

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2021
Hydroperoxy-eicosatetraenoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (HpETE-PE) is a ferroptotic cell death signal. HpETE-PE is produced by the 15-Lipoxygenase (15LOX)/Phosphatidylethanolamine Binding Protein-1 (PEBP1) complex or via an Fe-catalyzed non-enzymatic ...

Phosphatidylethanolamine Metabolism in Health and Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is the second most abundant glycerophospholipid in eukaryotic cells. The existence of four only partially redundant biochemical pathways that produce PE, highlights the importance of this essential phospholipid. The CDP-ethanolamine and phosphatidylserine decarboxylase pathways occur in different subcellular compartments ...

Characteristics of Liposomes Made by Phosphatidylethanolamine [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2016
Liposomes are vesicles made of lipid bilayer and used in study as a model of biological membranes. Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is a major phospholipid of most prokaryotes. PE is a phospholipid that is the second most present after phosphatidylcholine (PC) in the living world.

Spatiotemporal Super‐Resolution Imaging of Lipid Metabolism Dynamics in Physiological/Pathological Conditions

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A novel polarity‐sensitive fluorescent probe was developed for the selective targeting of lipid droplets, enabling precise visualization and quantification of lipid metabolism disorders using an integrated STED‐FLIM platform. This probe allows accurate monitoring of lipid metabolism in cellular and pathological contexts, such as atherosclerosis ...

Metabolic Heavy Isotope Labeling to Study Glycerophospholipid Homeostasis of Cultured Cells

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Glycerophospholipids consist of a glycerophosphate backbone to which are esterified two acyl chains and a polar head group. The head group (e.g., choline, ethanolamine, serine or inositol) defines the glycerophospholipid class, while the acyl chains ...

Cannabidiol has a unique effect on global brain activity: a pharmacological, functional MRI study in awake mice

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2021
Background The phytocannabinoid cannabidiol (CBD) exhibits anxiolytic activity and has been promoted as a potential treatment for post-traumatic stress disorders. How does CBD interact with the brain to alter behavior?

Bioprospecting Bioactive Polar Lipids from Olive (Olea europaea cv. Galega vulgar) Fruit Seeds: LC-HR-MS/MS Fingerprinting and Sub-Geographic Comparison

open access: yesFoods, 2022
Olive seeds have been considered as a new nutritionally healthy food supplement. They are rich in monounsaturated n-9 and essential polyunsaturated n-6 lipids. However, little is known about their polar lipids, potentially bioactive and chemical identity
