Lipid-protein interactions in lipid membranes
In dieser Arbeit werden Lipid-Protein-Wechselwirkungen und lipidvermittelte Protein-Protein-Wechselwirkungen mittels Monte-Carlo-Simulationen eines generischen vergröberten Modells für Lipiddoppelschichten mit hydrophoben Einschlüssen untersucht. Die Ergebnisse werden mit den Vorhersagen zweier …

Micro lipid droplet precursors of milk lipid globules
The lipid in milk (milk fat) is found in the form of droplets known as milk lipid globules (MLG). These milk lipid globules are encompassed by a unit membrane known as the milk lipid globule membrane (MLGM) which is derived from the apical plasma membrane of the mammary epithelial cell during …

Lipid catabolism in Treponema
… however, are esterified to triglycerides, phospholipids, and cholesterol. In this study, the major pathways of complex lipid catabolism in five species of Treponema were investigated. Lipase, the enzyme which hydrolyzes triglycerides, was demonstrated using four lipid substrates in five species. …

Comparisons of serum lipid levels and dietary lipid intakes of parents and children
… residing with them relative to their serum lipid levels and dietary lipid intakes. To participate, at least one of the parents needed to have a serum total cholesterol of at least 240 mg/dL. Fasting blood samples obtained from the participants were analyzed for serum total cholesterol, …

Regulation of lipid signaling at the Golgi by the lipid phosphatases hSAC1 and OCRL1
Phosphoinositides are key lipid signaling molecules present in membranes of all eukaryotes. Different species of phosphoinositides serve as membrane signposts at distinct cellular compartments. This assymetric distribution of phosphoinositides is achieved by the presence of an elaborate set of …

The role of macrophage intracellular lipid partitioning in glucose and lipid homeostasis during obesity
… tissue (WAT), the organ designed for safe lipid storage, as a key factor in the development of MetS and CVD. At a genetically-defined stage of the aberrant WAT expansion that occurs during obesity, adipocytes undergo a functional failure, resulting in an impaired control of serum free fatty …

Lipid Signaling Under Microgravity Conditions
… of which are represented by endogenous bioactive lipids such as endocannabinoids, sphingolipids, eicosanoids, and specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs). Each signal plays a role in different phases of the inflammatory response. Notably, our research group has previously demonstrated that both …

Lipid Biomarkers for Marine Fungi
… to be included in biogeochemical models. <br/>Lipid biomarkers can be used to assess microbial abundance and biomass due to their specificity and may be utilised to explore the viability and trophic dynamics of marine microbial communities. Although lipid biomarkers for fungi have been used in …

Observations in Lipid Membrane Systems
… The latter exists as small “rafts” of specific lipid composition containing a host of signaling proteins. Lipid raft theory links the aggregation of rafts to a signaling event. In its current iteration, the theory is incomplete, as it does not explain how rafts form and how they aggregate and …

Physiology and Pathophysiology of Retinoid and Lipid Storage in Mouse Hepatic Stellate Cell Lipid Droplets
… is stored in the hepatic stellate cell (HSC) lipid droplets as retinyl ester. These lipid droplets are a distinguishing feature of the HSC, and they have recently been proposed to be specialized organelles for the storage of retinoid based on their unique retinoid content and responsiveness to …

Genomics of lipid metabolism: Identification of genetic determinants of lipid metabolites and the effect of perturbations of lipid levels on coronary heart disease risk factors
… for 50% of the total disease burden. Circulating lipids are strongly and linearly associated with risk of CHD; however, despite considerable efforts to demonstrate causality, available evidence is conflicting and insufficient. Study of the underlying metabolic pathways implicated in the …

High fat diet causes hepatic lipid accumulation by programming lipid synthesizing genes via gene body methylation
… diet (HFD) has been shown to cause more hepatic lipid accumulation as compared to a low-fat control (C) diet. However, it is still unclear what role epigenetic mechanisms play in hepatic lipid accumulation. We hypothesize that a HFD will cause greater hepatic lipid accumulation through increased …

Adsorption of phloretin to lipid layers
… must be a biophysical one: phloretin adsorbs to lipid layers and changes biophysical parameters of these layers. The aim of this work was the characterization of the interaction between the surface-active molecule phloretin and artificial lipid layers. We were able to describe structural and …

Lipid profiles of deep-sea organisms
Lipids are a group of biologically important compounds that may be used as indicators of relationships between an organism and its environment. Lipid class composition identifies types of storage lipid which can suggest a pelagic or benthic existence and may be used to measure the condition of an …
