LPA receptor signaling: pharmacology, physiology, and pathophysiology
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a small ubiquitous lipid found in vertebrate and nonvertebrate organisms that mediates diverse biological actions and demonstrates medicinal relevance. LPA's functional roles are driven by extracellular signaling through at

FOXM1 is a downstream target of LPA and YAP oncogenic signaling pathways in high grade serous ovarian cancer [PDF]
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a prototypical ligand for G protein coupled receptors, and Forkhead box protein M1 (FOXM1), a transcription factor that regulates expression of a wide array of genes involved in cancer initiation and progression, are two ...

Inflammatory Mediators Both Directly and Indirectly Promote Microglial Proliferation
– CSF2, IL3, and TNFɑ directly promote microglial proliferation. – Neuron‐secreted factors suppress microglial proliferation. – IL1 cytokines promote CSF2 release from astrocytes, which promotes microglial proliferation. ABSTRACT Microglia—the predominant immune cell of the central nervous system (CNS)—possess an astounding capacity for proliferation ...

Background Lysophosphatidic acid receptors (LPARs) are G-protein-coupled receptors involved in many physiological functions in the central nervous system. However, the role of the LPARs in multiple sclerosis (MS) has not been clearly defined yet. Methods

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors: do they have a therapeutic potential in cardiac fibrosis? [PDF]
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that is characterized by a peculiar mechanism of action. In fact, S1P, which is produced inside the cell, can act as an intracellular mediator, whereas after its export outside the cell, it can act as ...

ABSTRACT Lipid metabolism reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer, yet the global lipidome of cancer cells and their extracellular vesicles (EVs) remains poorly understood. Using mass spectrometry, we analyzed the lipid profiles of a panel of human cancer and non‐cancer cell lines along with their secreted EVs.

Chronic Pain: Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, and Clinical Management
The multidimensional nature of chronic pain is illustrated through four interconnected domains. (Left) Epidemiology and Global Burden: Chronic pain affects approximately one in five individuals globally, contributing to a rising trend in disability‐adjusted life years (YLDs) and a significant socioeconomic impact.

Cooperation of Gq, Gi, and G12/13 in Protein Kinase D Activation and Phosphorylation Induced by Lysophosphatidic Acid [PDF]
To examine the contribution of different G-protein pathways to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)-induced protein kinase D (PKD) activation, we tested the effect of LPA on PKD activity in murine embryonic cell lines deficient in Galpha q/11 (Galpha q/11 KO ...
