Feasibility of the preparation of cochleate suspensions from naturally derived phosphatidylserines [PDF]
IntroductionCochleates are cylindrical particles composed of dehydrated phospholipid bilayers. They are typically prepared by addition of calcium ions to vesicles composed of negatively charged phospholipids such as phosphatidylserines (PS). Due to their

Methyl carbamates of phosphatidylethanolamines and phosphatidylserines reveal bacterial contamination in mitochondrial lipid extracts of mouse embryonic fibroblasts [PDF]
The occurrence of methyl carbamates of phosphatidylethanolamines and phosphatidylserines in the lipid extract of mitochondria obtained from mouse embryonic fibroblasts was ascertained by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography with electrospray ...

Plasma Membrane Lipid Composition and Turnover in Human Midbrain Neurons Investigated by Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
The molecular structure and dynamics of the neuronal plasma membrane are essential for neuronal biology and function. We employed time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) imaging to investigate the lipid composition and turnover at the ...

Plasma Lipidomic Alterations in Fontan Circulation Reflect Cardiovascular Functional Reserve [PDF]
Background: Fontan circulation is associated with impaired cardiac output, reduced exercise capacity, and systemic metabolic stress. However, the underlying lipidomic alterations remain poorly defined.

Diannexin protects against renal ischemia reperfusion injury and targets phosphatidylserines in ischemic tissue. [PDF]
Renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) frequently complicates shock, renal transplantation and cardiac and aortic surgery, and has prognostic significance. The translocation of phosphatidylserines to cell surfaces is an important pro-inflammatory signal

Multi-Omic Characterization of Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition: Lipidomic and Metabolomic Profiles as Key Markers of TGF-β-Induced Transition in Huh7 Hepatocellular Carcinoma [PDF]
Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key process in cancer progression and fibrogenesis. In this study, EMT was induced in Huh7 hepatocellular carcinoma cells via TGF-β1 treatment, and the resulting lipidomic and metabolomic alterations were ...

Angiotensin II Alters Mitochondrial Membrane Potential and Lipid Metabolism in Rat Colonic Epithelial Cells [PDF]
An over-active renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is characterized by elevated angiotensin II (Ang II). While Ang II can promote metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction in tissues, little is known about its role in the gastrointestinal system (GI).
