Value of Ascitic Lipids in the Differentiation between Cirrhotic and Malignant Ascites [PDF]
Ascitic fluid concentrations of cholesterol, triglycerides and phospholipids, were compared with ascitic fluid total protein in 40 patients with chronic liver disease, 51patients with various neoplasms and 1 patient with cardiac failure.

Do anionic phospholipids serve as cofactors or second messengers for the regulation of activity of cloned ATP-sensitive K+ channels? [PDF]
The regulation of ion channels by anionic phospholipids is currently very topical. An outstanding issue is whether phosphatidylinositol 4,5-diphosphate and related species act as true second messengers in signaling or behave in a manner analogous to an ...

The effect of experimental hyperoxia on erythrocytes’ oxygen-transport function [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of hyperoxia, calcium ions and pH value on the composition of major phospholipids in human erythrocyte membranes and erythrocytes’ oxygen-transport function. To create a model of hyperoxia, we saturated

FADS Gene Cluster Polymorphisms: Important Modulators of Fatty Acid Levels and Their Impact on Atopic Diseases [PDF]
Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) play an important role in several physiological processes and their concentration in phospholipids has been associated with several complex diseases, such as atopic disease.

Model mass spectrometric study of competitive interactions of antimicrobial bisquaternary ammonium drugs and aspirin with membrane phospholipids [PDF]
The aim of the study is to reveal molecular mechanisms of possible activity modulation of antimicrobial bis-quaternary ammonium compounds (BQAC) and aspirin (ASP) through noncovalent competitive complexation under their combined introduction into the ...

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 ...

Research Advances in Regulatory Effect of Phospholipids on Meat Quality [PDF]
Phospholipids, a class of polar lipids with complex structure and multiple functions, are composed of glycerophospholipids and sphingomyelins. As an important component of cell membranes, phospholipids are involved in many physiological activities, such ...

Identification of unusual phospholipids from bovine heart mitochondria by HPLC-MS/MS
Phospholipids, including ether phospholipids, are composed of numerous isomeric and isobaric species that have the same backbone and acyl chains. This structural resemblance results in similar fragmentation patterns by collision-induced dissociation of ...

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.
