Contributions of the pore-forming toxin Listeriolysin O to Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Listeriolysin O (LLO) is an essential determinant of Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis that mediates the escape of L. monocytogenes from host cell vacuoles, thereby allowing replication in the cytosol without causing appreciable cell death. As a member

Pre‐existing phytoplankton biomass concentrations shape coastal plankton response to fire‐generated ash leachate

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate‐driven warming is projected to intensify wildfires, increasing their frequency and severity globally. Wildfires are an increasingly significant source of atmospheric deposition, delivering nutrients, organic matter, and trace metals to coastal and open ocean waters.

Lipid synthesis and membrane contact sites: a crossroads for cellular physiology

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2016
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) are regions of close apposition between different organelles that contribute to the functional integration of compartmentalized cellular processes.

Neurodegenerative and Neurodevelopmental Roles for Bulk Lipid Transporters VPS13A and BLTP2

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bridge‐like lipid transfer proteins (BLTPs) mediate bulk lipid transport at membrane contact sites. Mutations in BLTPs are linked to both early‐onset neurodevelopmental and later‐onset neurodegenerative diseases, including movement disorders.

Effects of Quercetin Metabolites on Glucose‐Dependent Lipid Accumulation in 3T3‐L1 Adipocytes

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Quercetin metabolites (QMs), found in foods like fruits and vegetables, can influence how fat cells process fats and sugars. This study shows that QMs help reduce fat storage and sugar uptake in fat cells when sugar levels are high. Under conditions mimicking caloric restriction, they boost sugar use for energy.

Changes in Liver Metabolome Induced by Pterostilbene and Resveratrol in a Rat Model of Liver Steatosis

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Resveratrol and pterostilbene reduced the steatotic status of animals fed a high‐fat, high‐sucrose diet, involving differential and specific mechanisms of action for each stilbene. Thus, changes in riboflavin metabolism, nicotinamide mononucleotide metabolism, or in the LysoPC(18:1)‐mediated effects contribute to the specific actions of pterostilbene ...

Solute Composition of Vacuoles

open access: yes, 1997
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses solute composition of vacuoles. The presence of a large, water–filled vacuole occupying the majority of the intracellular volume confers a number of benefits on plant cells, including the ability to accumulate a wide variety of solutes to relatively high concentrations.
