Sphaerophorus ridiculosis: Plasmalogen Composition
Glyceryl ethers are present in most mammalian tissues (17, 21) but have until recently been isolated from only a few anaerobic microorganisms (1, 4, 8, 9). Recently, Kamio et al. (12) have shown that these lipids are present in a number of anaerobic soil microorganisms, and Meyer and Meyer (14) have reported alk-1'-enyl glyceryl ethers (plasmalogens) in Treponema pallidum (Reiter) isolated from...
متن کاملPlasmalogen composition of Anaeroplasma.
The polar lipids of Anaeroplasma contained 33.1 percent alk-1'-enyl glyceryl ether (plasmalogen) form. Phosphatidylglycerol was the major polar lipid (55.2 percent) and contained nearly all of the plasmalogen. The alk-1'-enyl glyceryl ether form accounted for 58.3 percent of the phosphatidylglycerol.
متن کاملMembrane Receptors and Cellular Regulation
problems of emphasis rather than fact exist. The advantages of enteral over parenteral nutritional support are mentioned only as cursory notes. In addition to protection from atrophy of the GI tract, the lower costs of enteral support mandate its use whenever possible. Similarly, the weighty ethical issues involved in hyperalimentation of the terminally ill patient are only briefly mentioned in...
متن کاملApolipoproteins, membrane cholesterol domains, and the regulation of cholesterol efflux.
Published data related to both cell membrane biology and apolipoprotein structure are reviewed and used to formulate a new model describing the mechanisms of cholesterol efflux from cell plasma membrane to high density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. The central premise of this model is the existence of heterogenous domains of cholesterol within plasma membranes. We propose that cholesterol efflux...
متن کاملCytotoxic and Antioxidant Activity of a Set of Hetero Bicylic Methylthiadiazole Hydrazones: A Structure-Activity Study
The current study highlights the in vitro antioxidant and antitumor activity of the previously-synthesized hydrazone derivatives against various free radicals and human cancer cell lines, respectively. The anticancer efficacies of the compound were tested by measuring cytotoxicity in cancer cell lines HeLa, A549, and non-cancerous NL20 cells. Compounds possessing electron-donor methoxy and me...
