Phosphatidylserine in atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Lipidology, 2016
Purpose of review It is now widely acknowledged that phosphatidylserine is a multifunctional bioactive lipid. In this review, we focus on the function of phosphatidylserine in modulating cholesterol metabolism, influencing inflammatory response and regulating coagulation system, and discuss promising phosphatidylserine-based ...

Stabilin Receptors: Role as Phosphatidylserine Receptors

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
Phosphatidylserine is a membrane phospholipid that is localized to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Phosphatidylserine externalization to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane is an important signal for various physiological processes ...

Enzymatic synthesis and decarboxylation of phosphatidylserine in Tetrahymena pyriformis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1970
Cell-free extracts of the protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis have been found to catalyze the following reactions: Phosphatidylethanolamine+L-Serine⇌Phosphatidylserine+EthanolaminePhosphatidylserine→Phosphatidylethanolamine+CO2Net:L-Serine→Ethanolamine ...

On the coordination of La3+ by phosphatidylserine [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1989
In a recent study by Bentz, J., D. Alford, J. Cohen, and N. Düzgünes (1988. Biophys. J. 53:593-607), La3+ was found to be more effective than Ca2+ in causing nonleaky fusion of phosphatidylserine vesicles. It was proposed that this difference in fusion efficiency may be due, in part, to a difference in coordination of the two cations. That is, Ca2+ was

Phosphatidylserine, a death knell [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Differentiation, 2001
Virtually every cell in the body restricts phosphatidylserine (PS) to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane by energy-dependent transport from the outer to the inner leaflet of the bilayer. Apoptotic cells of all types rapidly randomize the asymmetric distribution, bringing PS to the surface where it serves as a signal for phagocytosis.

Inhibition of phosphatidylserine recognition heightens the immunogenicity of irradiated lymphoma cells in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Strategies to enhance the immunogenicity of tumors are urgently needed. Although vaccination with irradiated dying lymphoma cells recruits a tumor-specific immune response, its efficiency as immunogen is poor.

Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase from Clostridium butyricum.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1985
Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase activity has been characterized in membrane preparations from Clostridium butyricum ATCC 19398. A particulate fraction was shown to catalyze the formation of phosphatidylethanolamine and plasmenylethanolamine when ...

Glu- and Lys-forms of plasminogen differentially affect phosphatidylserine exposure on the platelet surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plasminogen/plasmin system is known for its ability to support hemostatic balance of blood. However, plasminogen may be considered as an adhesive ligand and in this way could affect the functioning of blood cells. We showed that exogenous Lys-plasminogen,

Role of Calcium in Phosphatidylserine Externalisation in Red Blood Cells from Sickle Cell Patients

open access: yesAnemia, 2011
Phosphatidylserine exposure occurs in red blood cells (RBCs) from sickle cell disease (SCD) patients and is increased by deoxygenation. The mechanisms responsible remain unclear.
