چکیده

Ca2+-mobilizing agonists, including hormones, neurotransmitters and growth factors, cause profound changes in cellular lipid metabolism. These changes are initiated by receptormediated activation of various phospholipases including phospholipase A2, phospholipase C and phospholipase D. Phospholipase A2 hydrolyses several phospholipids including phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn) to liberate arachidonic acid and the respective lysophospholipids. Arachidonic acid is converted via the cyclo-oxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways to eicosanoids, including prostaglandins, thromboxanes, prostacyclins, leukotrienes and lipoxins [1]. Certain lysophospholipids such as ether-linked lysophosphatidylcholine

Hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine couples Ras to activation of Raf protein kinase during mitogenic signal transduction.

We have investigated the relationship between hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and activation of the Raf-1 protein kinase in Ras-mediated transduction of mitogenic signals. As previously reported, cotransfection of a PC-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) expression plasmid bypassed the block to cell proliferation resulting from expression of the dominant inhibitory mutant Ras N-17. In cont...

Comparing the Effect of Silybin and Silybin Advanced™ on Viability and HER2 Expression on the Human Breast Cancer SKBR3 Cell Line by no Serum Starvation

The polyphenol silybin has anti-oxidant and anti-cancer properties. The poor bioavailability of some polyphenols (flavonoids, and terpenoids) can be improved by binding them to phosphatidylcholine (phytosome technology). Many studies have focused on the most common phytosome, silybin-phosphatidylcholine, particularly for its hepatoprotective effects. However, in recent years, studies have also ...

SPO14 separation-of-function mutations define unique roles for phospholipase D in secretion and cellular differentiation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, phospholipase D (PLD), encoded by the SPO14 gene, catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine, producing choline and phosphatidic acid. SPO14 is essential for cellular differentiation during meiosis and is required for Golgi function when the normal secretory apparatus is perturbed (Sec14-independent secretion). We isolated specific alleles of SPO14 that support...

ANTICALMODULIN DRUGS DUE TO THE NET EFFECTS CANNOT ANTAGONIZE DIBUTYRYL-CAMP-MEDIATED SUPPRESSION OF DE NOVO SYNTHESIZED LIPID SECRETION IN BOTH CULTURED MCARDLE CELLS AND RAT HEPATOCYTES

The effects and interaction between cAMP-analogue dibutyryl-cAMP and calmodulin antagonists were investigated on de novo synthesis and secretion of lipids in cultures of hepatoma McArdle-RH7777 cells and normal rat hepatocytes. Dibutyryl cAMP caused a significant decrease in the secretion of de novo synthesized triacyl [3H] glycerol in both cultures of McArdle cells and rat hepatocytes. The ...
