Lysophosphatidic acid receptor agonists and antagonists (WO2010051053) [PDF]

Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Patents, 2011
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lipid involved in signaling pathways that result in cell survival, proliferation, migration and invasion. These cellular responses are a critical element of both normal development as well as pathophysiology.

Molecular Mediators Associated With Myelination, Demyelination, and Remyelination in the Peripheral Nervous System

Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System, Volume 31, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is responsible for innervating all regions of the body outside of the central nervous system (CNS), the latter consisting of the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. While myelin is an essential component for the efficient functioning of both CNS and peripheral nerve cells, it is particularly important for ...

CYRI-B-mediated macropinocytosis drives metastasis via lysophosphatidic acid receptor uptake

eLife
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma carries a dismal prognosis, with high rates of metastasis and few treatment options. Hyperactivation of KRAS in almost all tumours drives RAC1 activation, conferring enhanced migratory and proliferative capacity as well ...

Novel lysophosphoplipid receptors: their structure and function

Journal of Lipid Research, 2014
It is now accepted that lysophospholipids (LysoGPs) have a wide variety of functions as lipid mediators that are exerted through G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) specific to each lysophospholipid.

Autophagy in MASLD: A Metabolic and Precision Medicine Perspective

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver condition worldwide and a major contributor to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). While metabolic triggers such as obesity and insulin resistance are key drivers of MASLD, growing evidence has identified defects in intracellular quality

Repurposing a Lipid Droplet‐Associated Algal Protein as a Biosensor for Phosphatidic Acid

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 8, August 2026.
The DTH1 lipid binding domain (DTH1LBD) binds to lipid membranes containing phosphatidic acid (PA). Its N‐terminal amphipathic helices are sufficient for this association and, when labeled with solvatochromic fluorophores, can serve as in vitro PA biosensors.

Network Pharmacology Combined With Metabonomics and Transcriptomics Reveals the Mechanism of Rubus Chingii Hu in Alleviating Nephrotoxicity Caused by Tripterygium Glycosides Tablet

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Flow chart of RCH to improve TGT‐induced nephrotoxicity. ABSTRACT Researches on Tripterygium glycosides tablets (TGT) often overlook renal toxicity from prolonged use. Rubus chingii Hu (RCH) is beneficial to kidney health and has an unclear role in reducing nephrotoxicity.

Myocardial Lipid Metabolism Imbalance: The Pathological Core and Novel Diagnostic‐Therapeutic Directions of Cardiovascular Diseases

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
In cardiac cells, Plin5/AMPK regulate lipid homeostasis; excess CD36‐mediated uptake drives lipotoxicity, mitochondrial dysfunction, and CVDs (e.g., heart failure). Biomarkers (ApoB/ApoA‐1) and therapies (SGLT2 inhibitors) target this cascade. ABSTRACT Cardiac lipid metabolism is fundamental to myocardial energy homeostasis, with fatty acid oxidation ...

LPA receptor signaling: pharmacology, physiology, and pathophysiology

Journal of Lipid Research, 2014
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

Chemogenetic Activation of G12 Signaling Thickens the Epidermis With Enhanced Barrier Function

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
In this study, we investigated the role of G12 signaling in the epidermis using a keratinocyte‐specific chemogenetic approach. Activation of G12 signaling promoted keratinocyte differentiation and enhanced epidermal barrier function by upregulating filaggrin, claudin‐1, and ceramide.
