LPA is a chemorepellent for B16 melanoma cells: action through the cAMP-elevating LPA5 receptor. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a lipid mediator enriched in serum, stimulates cell migration, proliferation and other functions in many cell types. LPA acts on six known G protein-coupled receptors, termed LPA(1-6), showing both overlapping and distinct ...

Enhancing adult hippocampal neurogenesis with lysophosphatidic acid: a proposal for erasing cocaine contextual memory [PDF]

, 2018
Stimulating adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN) has been uncovered as a promising approach in the manipulation of retrograde memories. This work aims to study whether increasing AHN with lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, an endogenous lysophospholipid with ...

The role of epidermal growth factor-like module containing mucin-like hormone receptor 2 in human cancers. [PDF]

, 2014
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are among the most diverse and ubiquitous proteins in all of biology. The epidermal growth factor-seven span transmembrane (EGF-TM7) subfamily of adhesion GPCRs is a small subset whose members are mainly expressed on ...

Dietary anthocyanidin pelargonidin activates G protein‐coupled receptor 35

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pelargonidin, a red‐fruit‐derived anthocyanidin, was newly identified as a dietary agonist of GPR35, a metabolite‐sensing GPCR implicated in anti‐inflammation. Through screening of dietary compounds, pelargonidin emerged as a potent GPR35 agonist, attenuating inflammation in human intestinal cells.

Structural mechanisms of potent lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 activation by nonlipid basic agonists

Communications Biology
Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 (LPA1) is one of the G protein-coupled receptors activated by the lipid mediator, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). LPA1 is associated with a variety of diseases, and LPA1 agonists have potential therapeutic value for treating

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.

Proteomic analysis of the zone of degeneration at the mitosis–meiosis transition stage in wild‐caught male catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula), correlated with an unusually high‐water temperature in the English Channel

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of current global change, variations in water temperature are one of the environmental conditions with serious consequences for marine life, including reproductive processes. In the small spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula, spermatogenesis occurs in spermatocysts composed of synchronously developing germ cells associated ...

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 ...

The Bulk of Autotaxin Activity Is Dispensable for Adult Mouse Life. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Autotaxin (ATX, Enpp2) is a secreted lysophospholipase D catalysing the production of lysophosphatidic acid, a pleiotropic growth factor-like lysophospholipid.

In vitro pharmacological characterization of standard and new lysophosphatidic acid receptor antagonists using dynamic mass redistribution assay

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive phospholipid that acts as an agonist of six G protein-coupled receptors named LPA receptors (LPA1-6).
