B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Film Forming Systems for Delivery of Active Molecules into and across the Skin

Pharmaceutics, 2023
We have investigated delivery systems that can form a structured matrix film on the skin after their application. In a previous work, we have shown that Weblike film forming systems (also called Pouches Drug Delivery Systems, PDDS) enable enhanced skin ...

Putting the 'P' into Phospholipids

CHIMIA, 2011
Despite almost hundred years of dedicated research, the synthesis of phospholipids remains a challenge. Here, we briefly review important trends and point out possible future directions that might lead to interesting new probes for the membrane environment. An improved liposome purification and concentration protocol rounds up the article.

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

LC/MS/MS method for analysis of E2 series prostaglandins and isoprostanes

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
15-series prostaglandins (PGE2s) and isoprostanes (isoPGE2s) are robust biomarkers of oxidative stress, possess potent biological activity, and may be derived through cyclooxygenase or free radical pathways.

Sex-Specific Patterns of Diaphragm Phospholipid Content and Remodeling during Aging and in a Model of SELENON-Related Myopathy

Biomedicines, 2023
Growing evidence shows that the lipid bilayer is a key site for membrane interactions and signal transduction. Surprisingly, phospholipids have not been widely studied in skeletal muscles, although mutations in genes involved in their biosynthesis have ...

Phospholipids and sports performance [PDF]

Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2007
Phospholipids are essential components of all biological membranes. Phosphatidylcholine (PC) and Phosphatidylserine (PS) are Phosphatidyl-phospholipids that are required for normal cellular structure and function. The participation in physical activity often challenges a variety of physiological systems; consequently, the ability to maintain normal ...

Targeting the AKT/mTOR pathway attenuates the metastatic potential of colorectal carcinoma circulating tumor cells in a murine xenotransplantation model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dual targeting of AKT and mTOR using MK2206 and RAD001 reduces tumor burden in an intracardiac colon cancer circulating tumor cell xenotransplantation model. Analysis of AKT isoform‐specific knockdowns in CTC‐MCC‐41 reveals differentially regulated proteins and phospho‐proteins by liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. Circulating tumor cells

Enzymatic activities of the human AGPAT isoform 3 and isoform 5: localization of AGPAT5 to mitochondria[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
The enzyme 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate-O-acyltransferase (AGPAT) converts lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) to phosphatidic acid (PA). In this study, we show enzymatic properties, tissue distribution, and subcellular localization of human AGPAT3 and AGPAT5.
