Plasmalogens and Chronic Inflammatory Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
It is becoming widely acknowledged that lipids play key roles in cellular function, regulating a variety of biological processes. Lately, a subclass of glycerophospholipids, namely plasmalogens, has received increased attention due to their association ...

Plasmalogen biosynthesis in peroxisomal disorders: fatty alcohol versus alkylglycerol precursors.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1988
In recent years a growing number of inherited diseases have been recognized to originate from an impairment in one or more peroxisomal functions. Since it is well established that the first two steps in the biosynthesis of plasmalogens proceed in ...

Analytical Methods for Plasmalogen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
プラスマローゲンはリン脂質のサブクラスの一種で,嫌気性微生物から哺乳類まで生物界に広く分布している。プラスマローゲンの病態生理学的役割はよくわかっていないが,以前から,アルツハイマー病をはじめとする多くの神経変性疾患との関係が示されてきた。近年,体内のプラスマローゲンの変動が,酸化ストレスや慢性炎症を伴う代謝性疾患に関与するという多くの報告があり,血漿・血清中のプラスマローゲンは,これらの疾患のバイオマーカーとして期待される。そこで本稿ではプラスマローゲンの疾病との関係 ...

Oral administration of a synthetic vinyl-ether plasmalogen normalizes open field activity in a mouse model of rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2020
Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in peroxisomal genes essential for plasmalogen biosynthesis.

Plasmalogens: Free Radical Reactivity and Identification of Trans Isomers Relevant to Biological Membranes

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Plasmalogens are membrane phospholipids with two fatty acid hydrocarbon chains linked to L-glycerol, one containing a characteristic cis-vinyl ether function and the other one being a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) residue linked through an acyl ...

Plasmalogens Regulate Retinal Connexin 43 Expression and Müller Glial Cells Gap Junction Intercellular Communication and Migration

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Plasmalogens are a specific glycerophospholipid subtype characterized by a vinyl-ether bound at their sn-1 moiety. Their biosynthesis is initiated in the peroxisome by dihydroxyacetone phosphate-acyltransferase (DHAPAT), which is encoded by the DAPAT ...

Plasmalogen composition of Anaeroplasma [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1975
The polar lipids of Anaeroplasma contained 33.1 percent alk-1'-enyl glyceryl ether (plasmalogen) form. Phosphatidylglycerol was the major polar lipid (55.2 percent) and contained nearly all of the plasmalogen. The alk-1'-enyl glyceryl ether form accounted for 58.3 percent of the phosphatidylglycerol.

Plasmalogen in the brain: Effects on cognitive functions and behaviors attributable to its properties

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin, 2022
Ether phospholipid compositions are altered in the plasma or brain of patients with brain disorders, such as Alzheimer and Parkinson’s disease, including those with psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorders.

Plasmalogen loss caused by remodeling deficiency in mitochondria

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2019
31 P NMR unveils cell type–dependent losses of plasmalogen in the chain remodeling–deficient brain, liver, kidney, and lymphoblast in association with aberrant mitochondrial function and morphology. Lipid homeostasis is crucial in human health.

Targeted Plasmalogen Supplementation: Effects on Blood Plasmalogens, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers, Cognition, and Mobility in Cognitively Impaired Persons

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Plasmalogens are a specific type of glycerophospholipid found in especially high levels in neuronal membranes. Decreased blood and brain levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) containing plasmalogens are associated with decreased cognition and ...
