Lysophosphatidic acid stimulates astrocyte proliferation through LPA1.
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is an extracellular lipid mediator that regulates nervous system development and functions through multiple types of LPA receptors. Here we explore the role of LPA receptor subtypes in cortical astrocyte functions. Astrocytes cultured under serum-free conditions were found to express the genes of five LPA receptor subtypes, lpa1 to lpa5. When astrocytes were treated ...
متن کاملDual action of lysophosphatidic acid in cultured cortical neurons: survival and apoptogenic.
The effect of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), with a wide range of its different concentrations, upon cultured mouse cortical neurons was assessed by electrophoresis of DNA fragments, HO33342 and TUNEL stainings, and also by ultrastructural examination at times. The results showed that administration of LPA at lower concentrations (0.1-30 micromol/L) dose-dependently protected cortical neurons fro...
متن کاملLysophosphatidic Acid Enhances Stromal Cell-Directed Angiogenesis
Ischemic diseases such as peripheral vascular disease (PVD) affect more than 15% of the general population and in severe cases result in ulcers, necrosis, and limb loss. While the therapeutic delivery of growth factors to promote angiogenesis has been widely investigated, large-scale implementation is limited by strategies to effectively deliver costly recombinant proteins. Multipotent adipose-...
متن کاملCell density-dependent expression of EDG family receptors and mesangial cell proliferation: role in lysophosphatidic acid-mediated cell growth.
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a major member of the bioactive lysophospholipids in serum, possesses diverse physiological activities including cell proliferation. Recently, three endothelial differentiation gene (EDG) family receptors, including EDG-2 (LPA1), EDG-4 (LPA2), and EDG-7 (LPA3), have been identified as LPA receptors. The role of LPA and their receptors in mesangial cell physiology is...
متن کاملLysophosphatidic acid stimulates the proliferation and motility of malignant pleural mesothelioma cells through lysophosphatidic acid receptors, LPA1 and LPA2.
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is one of the simplest natural phospholipids. This phospholipid is recognized as an extracellular potent lipid mediator with diverse effects on various cells. Although LPA is shown to stimulate proliferation and motility via LPA receptors, LPA(1) and LPA(2), in several cancer cell lines, the role of LPA and LPA receptors for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) has b...
