The effect of desiccation on viability and membrane lipid composition of Acer pseudoplatanus seeds

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The viability of desiccation-intolerant sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus L.) seeds during desiccation was investigated by tetrazolium and by a germinability test, together with membrane permeability and membrane phospholipid composition.

Phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferase: an enzyme that catalyzes the acyl-CoA-independent formation of triacylglycerol in yeast and plants.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2000
Triacylglycerol (TAG) is known to be synthesized in a reaction that uses acyl-CoA as acyl donor and diacylglycerol (DAG) as acceptor, and which is catalyzed by the enzyme acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase.

Imiquimod‐Loaded Phospholipid‐Free Small Unilamellar Vesicles Activate the Tumor Immune Microenvironment to Treat Liver Cancer and Liver Metastases

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Imiquimod‐loaded nanoparticles (PFSUV‐IMQ) are found to decrease liver metastasis and liver tumor burden when administered intravenously. Flow cytometry, RNA‐seq and various experiments show that the anti‐tumor response is immune‐mediated by activating dendritic cells resulting in increased CD8 T cell infiltration and activity.

A New Type of LSPR Sensor Featuring Immobilized Liposome or Phospholipid Single Layer

open access: yesProceedings, 2018
We have fabricated a new type of LSPR sensor featuring immobilized liposome or phospholipid single layer. LSPR principally shows an ultrahigh sensitivity on surface dielectric environmental change due to interaction with target, but little has been ...

Phospholipid scramblase: An update

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2010
The best understood consequence of the collapse of lipid asymmetry is exposure of phosphatidylserine (PS) in the external leaflet of the plasma membrane bilayer, where it is known to serve at least two major functions: providing a platform for development of the blood coagulation cascade and presenting the signal that induces phagocytosis of apoptotic ...

A Targeted Redox‐Active Dual‐Action Pt(IV)‐Mn(II) Prodrug Displays Enhanced In Vivo Anticancer Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A new oxaliplatin‐based Pt(IV) prodrug bearing a Mn(II) superoxide dismutase mimic is synthesized and studied, in vitro and in vivo, in the context of colorectal cancer. Encapsulation of this prodrug in an easy‐to‐implement PEGylated micelle formulation demonstrated the highest in vivo anticancer activity among all the tested conditions, supporting the

Plasma Phospholipid Fatty Acid Concentration and Incident Coronary Heart Disease in Men and Women: The EPIC-Norfolk Prospective Study

open access: yesPLoS Medicine, 2012
Kay-Tee Khaw and colleagues analyze data from a prospective cohort study and show associations between plasma concentrations of saturated phospholipid fatty acids and risk of coronary heart disease, and an inverse association between omega-6 ...

Human Skin Models in Biophotonics: Materials, Methods, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses how the optical properties of human skin can be replicated in human skin models. It describes the principles, materials, and techniques used to develop artificial skin for biophotonics research. Finally, the article highlights recent advances and shows how these models improve the study of light‐skin interactions without the need ...
