Mast cells (MCs) initiate immune responses from mucosal surfaces and perivascular spaces. Stem cell factor (SCF) regulates MC development and viability, but the role of innate serum factors in MC development is unexplored. Cultured cord blood-derived human MCs (hMCs) express mRNA transcripts for all 4 known receptors for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), an abundant serum-associated lipid growth fac...
OBJECTIVE Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lipid molecule produced by the plasma lysophospholipase D enzyme autotaxin that is present at ≥100 nmol/L in plasma. Local administration of LPA promotes systemic arterial remodeling in rodents. To determine whether LPA contributes to remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature, we examined responses in mice with alterations in LPA signaling and ...
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is the smallest and structurally simplest of all the glycerophospholipids. It occurs normally in serum and binds with high affinity to albumin, while retaining its biological activity. The effects of LPA are pleiotropic and range from mitogenesis to stress fiber formation. We show a novel role for LPA: as a macrophage survival factor with potency equivalent to serum....
BACKGROUND We previously reported that nerve injury-induced neuropathic pain is initiated by newly produced lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). RESULTS In this study, we developed a quantitative mass spectrometry for detecting LPA species by using Phos-tag. Following nerve injury, the levels of 18:1, 16:0 and 18:0 LPA in the spinal dorsal horn significantly increased at 3 h and declined at 6 h. Amon...
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lysophospholipid that signals through G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to produce a range of biological responses. A recently reported fourth receptor, LPA(4)/GPR23, was notable for its low homology to the previously identified receptors LPA(1-3) and for its ability to increase intracellular concentrations of cAMP and calcium. However, the signaling...
Granular corneal dystrophy type 2 (GCD2) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by a R124H point mutation in the transforming growth factor-β-induced gene (TGFBI). However, the cellular role of TGFBI and the regulatory mechanisms underlying corneal dystrophy pathogenesis are still poorly understood. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) refers to a small bioactive phospholipid mediator produced in vario...
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a bioactive phospholipid, plays an important role in lung inflammation by inducing the release of chemokines and lipid mediators. Our previous studies have shown that LPA induces the secretion of interleukin-8 and prostaglandin E(2) in lung epithelial cells. Here, we demonstrate that LPA receptors contribute to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. Pretreat...
The calcium-activated K(+) (BKCa) channel is one of the potassium-selective ion channels that are present in the nervous and vascular systems. Ca(2+) is the main regulator of BKCa channel activation. The BKCa channel contains two high affinity Ca(2+) binding sites, namely, regulators of K(+) conductance, RCK1 and the Ca(2+) bowl. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 1-radyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosph...
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive phospholipid acting via specific G protein-coupled receptors that is synthesized at the extracellular face of adipocytes by a secreted lysophospholipase D (autotaxin). Preadipocytes mainly express the LPA(1) receptor subtype, and LPA increases their proliferation. In monocytes and CV1 cells LPA was recently reported to bind and activate peroxisome prol...
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a naturally occurring bioactive phospholipid, activates G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), leading to regulation of diverse cellular events including cell survival and apoptosis. Despite extensive studies of the signaling pathways that mediate LPA-regulated cell growth and survival, the mechanisms underlying the apoptotic effect of LPA remain largely unclear. In t...
