Phospholipid signaling

Cell, 1995
Ten years ago, describing what is new in phospholipid signaling in ten pages of Cell would have been easy; it would have been essentially a summary of the phospho-inositidase C (PIC) story: phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphos-phate (Ptdlns(4,5)P2) hydrolysis to inositiol(1,4,5)trisphos-phate (Ins(1",4,5)P3), with the synergistic action of Ca 2÷(mobilized ...

PLTP deficiency improves the anti-inflammatory properties of HDL and reduces the ability of LDL to induce monocyte chemotactic activity

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
We reported that phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) deficiency decreased atherosclerosis in mouse models. Because the decreased atherosclerosis was accompanied by a significant decrease in plasma HDL levels, we examined the properties of PLTP knockout (

Influence of Phospholipid and Protein Constituents on Tribological Properties of Artificial Hydrogel Cartilage Material

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2013
In this study, the influence of phospholipid and protein constituents on friction and wear behavior of artificial hydrogel cartilage was investigated. A sliding pair of an ellipsoidal specimen of poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogel and a flat specimen of

Domain Growth Kinetics in a Cell-sized Liposome [PDF]

, 2005
We investigated the kinetics of domain growth on liposomes consisting of a ternary mixture (unsaturated phospholipid, saturated phospholipid, and cholesterol) by temperature jump.

Phospholipid flippases [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1988
Protein mediated phospholipid translocation through membranes has been observed in rat liver endoplasmic reticulum and in the plasma membrane of erythrocytes as well as in a few other cell membranes. Lipid translocation in plasma membranes is ATP dependent and selectively accumulates aminophospholipids on the inner monolayers.

From supported membranes to tethered vesicles: lipid bilayers destabilisation at the main transition [PDF]

, 2006
We report results concerning the destabilisation of supported phospholipid bilayers in a well-defined geometry. When heating up supported phospholipid membranes deposited on highly hydrophilic glass slides from room temperature (i.e.

Role of individual amino acids of apolipoprotein A-I in the activation of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase and in HDL rearrangements

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
The central region of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), spanning residues 143–165, has been implicated in lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activation and also in high density lipoprotein (HDL) structural rearrangements.

Phospholipid Scramblases [PDF]

Lipid Insights, 2015
The distribution of phospholipid types between the two leaflets of a membrane bilayer is a controlled feature of membrane structure. One of the two membrane catalytic activities governing this distribution randomizes the composition of the two leaflets–-the phospholipid scramblases.

Interaction of Small Ionic Species With Phospholipid Membranes: The Role of Metal Coordination

Frontiers in Materials, 2019
In studies of the transfer, distribution and biochemical activity of metal ions it is typically assumed that the phospholipid bilayer acts as an inert barrier.
