The Equilibria of Sphingolipid-Cholesterol and Sphingolipid–Sphingolipid in Monolayers at the Air–Water Interface [PDF]

The Journal of Membrane Biology, 2012
Monolayers of sphingomyelin (SM), ceramide (Cer) and cholesterol (Ch) and binary mixtures SM-Ch, SM-Cer and Cer-Ch were investigated at the air-water interface. SM, Cer and Ch were used in the experiment. The surface tension values of pure and mixed monolayers were used to calculate π-A isotherms.

Cholesterol Promotes Lung Adenocarcinoma Brain Metastasis by Stabilizing EGFR Protein to Drive EMT, Metabolic Reprogramming, and Premetastatic Niche Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cholesterol is revealed as a multitasking fuel for lung adenocarcinoma brain metastasis: it locks EGFR at the membrane to sustain AKT/NF‐κB–driven glycolysis and EMT, loosens the blood–brain barrier by promoting Claudin‐5 loss, and rewires microglia through IL‐4R lipid‐raft–JAK1/STAT6 signaling.

Synergistic Anti-Candida Activity of Bengazole A in the Presence of Bengamide A †. [PDF]

, 2019
Bengazoles A⁻G from the marine sponge Jaspis sp. exhibit potent in vitro antifungal activity against Candida spp. and other pathogenic fungi. The mechanism of action (MOA) of bengazole A was explored in Candida albicans under both liquid culture and ...

Doxorubicin Affects Testicular Lipids with Long-Chain (C18-C22) and Very Long-Chain (C24-C32) Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids [PDF]

, 2007
Doxorubicin disrupts spermatogenesis by causing apoptosis of spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of this agent on adult rat testicular lipids and their fatty acids.

A Cost‐Effective Hybrid Method For Homogeneous Matrix Coating in Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry Imaging Using Simultaneous Spin and Spray Deposition

Analysis &Sensing, EarlyView.
This study introduces an in‐house spin coater for matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging, providing homogeneous matrix deposition via simultaneous spray and spin. The approach yields reproducible signals and clear metabolite distributions in complex tissues.

Fasting and Refeeding Mediated Phospholipid Remodeling Plays an Important Role in Improving Meat Quality of Aged Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.

Polyphenol alkyl ester inhibits membrane cholesterol domain formation through an antioxidant mechanism based, in nonlinear fashion, on chain length [PDF]

, 2017
Under conditions of oxidative stress, cholesterol aggregates into discrete membrane bilayer domains that precipitate the formation of extracellular crystals, a hallmark feature of the advanced atheroma in cardiovascular disease.
