Vitamin E and arachidonic acid metabolism in cultured human endothelial cells.
A novel approach to study the metabolism of nutrients in human cells was developed. The incorporation and depletion of 2R,4$\sp\prime$R,8$\sp\prime$R-$\alpha$-tocopherol (RRR-$\alpha$-T), a natural form of vitamin E, and its subsequent effect on the metabolism of arachidonic acid were conducted on …

Synaptic Protein Profiling in the Mammalian Brain
… proteins, including those involved in phospholipid metabolism and signaling, which are major unrecognized components of this synapse type. Second, we analyzed inhibitory synapses of layer V pyramidal cells of the cerebral cortex, thereby accomplishing the first successful in vivo …

Membrane Surface Charge and Lipid Signaling in Phagocytosis
… events. Sphingolipids, cholesterol and glycerophospholipids, notably the phosphoinositides, are required for the segregation of signaling microdomains and for the generation of second messengers. They are also instrumental in the remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton and in directing membrane …

The Assembly of Pathogenic Signaling Circuits by a Family of Bacterial Secreted Effector Proteins
… of the Shigella GEF IpgB1 with acidic phospholipids. Surprisingly, we find that these protein-lipid interactions are not required for IpgB1’s known role in Shigella invasion. However, we do find that IpgB1’s interactions with eukaryotic membranes are essential for bacterial replication …

Regulation of Highly Unsaturated Fatty Acid Metabolism
… oxidation and synthesis, respectively, including metabolism of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs). The objective of the first project was to investigate functional differences of PPARalpha between species. PPARalpha is essential for adaptation to fasting in rats and mice. However, …

Therapeutic targeting of DGKA-mediated macropinocytosis in lymphangioleiomyomatosis
… a master regulator of cellular anabolic metabolism is hyperactivated in LAM cells. Upregulation of protein synthesis and downregulation of autophagy creates a state of starvation stress that upregulates pathways of extracellular nutrient acquisition. Macropinocytosis, a form of …

New therapeutic strategies against trypanosomiasis and leishmaniasis
… there were no major defects in choline phospholipid metabolism upon treatment with the choline compounds, suggesting that phospholipid metabolism is not the target of the anti-trypanocidal activity of these compounds. Preliminary results with infected ICR mice infected with T. b. brucei …

Roles of Phospholipase A/Acyltransferase Enzymes in Membrane Remodelling and Organelle Degradation
… is through remodelling the fatty acid tails of phospholipids. This process is coordinated by phospholipase A (PLA) and acyltransferases (AT). PLA/AT are a family of 5 enzymes evolutionarily conserved in vertebrates. Recently, they have been implicated in processes from organelle degradation …

Mitochondrial structure and distribution in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
… play diverse roles in the physiology and metabolism of eukaryotic cells. Like most membrane bounded organelles, they cannot be synthesized de novo but grow and split into distinct organelles and must be inherited to daughter cells upon cell division. The structure of the highly dynamic …

Metabolomic and metabolomic flux studies of the effects of sphingosine kinase inhibitors on prostate cancer cells using high-resolution mass spectrometry as an analytical technique
… findings suggest that SKi reprograms cellular metabolism of LNCaP-AI cells, which results in reduced flux through glycolytic and TCA cycles andre-diversion of glucose to produce, sn-G3P, which is capable of increasing ROS production, and which might programme senescent death in these cells. The …

Tobacco Phospholipase D β1: Molecular Cloning and Biochemical Characterization
Transgenic tobacco plants were developed containing a partial PLD clone in antisense orientation. The PLD isoform targeted by the insertion was identified. A PLD clone was isolated from a cDNA library using the partial PLD as a probe: Nt10B1 shares 92% identity with PLDβ1 from tomato but lacks the …
