Bacterial Toxin Exploits Host Membrane Phospholipid as a Receptor for Binding, Entry, and Cytopathogenicity

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Mycoplasma pneumoniae pathogenesis relies on its CARDS toxin, which initiates cell binding and subsequent uptake by exploiting sphingomyelin, a key phospholipid found in the host plasma membrane. Maximal cellular entry and full cytotoxic effects are achieved through a synergistic mechanism that involves interaction with the protein coreceptor annexin ...

Circulating Lipoprotein Sphingolipids in Chronic Kidney Disease with and without Diabetes

open access: yesBiomedicines
Abnormalities of sphingolipid metabolism play an important role in diabetes. We compared sphingolipid levels in plasma and in isolated lipoproteins between healthy control subjects and two groups of patients, one with chronic kidney disease without ...

Transient domain formation in membrane-bound organelles undergoing maturation

open access: yes, 2013
The membrane components of cellular organelles have been shown to segregate into domains as the result of biochemical maturation. We propose that the dynamical competition between maturation and lateral segregation of membrane components regulates domain

Eggs and Associated Nutrients: Implications for Brain Development and Function From Conception to Early Adulthood: A Narrative Review

open access: yesNutrition Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brain development is an ongoing process that occurs throughout the first 1000 days of life (conception until 2 years) and proceeds throughout childhood, adolescence and up until early adulthood. Adequate nutrient intakes are crucial for both neurodevelopment inside the womb and critical life‐stages thereafter when the brain continues to grow ...

Application of electrospray mass spectrometry to the analysis of lipids : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Food Technology at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
This work investigated the application of electrospray mass spectrometry (MS) to the elucidation of lipid structure, especially related to milkfat. This was the first time that the instrument in our laboratory had been used for this purpose.

Plant Lipid Droplets and Derived Lipidic Nano‐Assemblies: Structure, Biogenesis and Pharmaceutical Applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lipid droplets (LDs) serve as the primary storage site for neutral lipids in plant cells, with growing evidence supporting many additional biological roles, such as in lipid homeostasis, signalling, trafficking, inflammatory responses and inter‐organelle communication.

Urinary lipid metabolites and progression of kidney disease in individuals with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
ObjectiveA substantial proportion of individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) experience a fast decline (FD) in kidney function, a high-risk phenotype not reliably identified by current clinical markers.

TaRIP2 Positively Regulates Wheat Pollen Wall Formation Through MYB80‐Controlled Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Male‐sterile genes and mutants are critical for hybrid seed production in monocotyledonous crops. Lipids are essential structural components of male reproductive organs, such as the anther and pollen. Here, we show that the pollen‐preferential gene TaRIP2 is essential for wheat anther development and pollen formation. RT‐qPCR analysis revealed
