BODIPY 493/503 Staining of Neutral Lipid Droplets for Microscopy and Quantification by Flow Cytometry.

Bio-protocol

Qiu B, Simon MC.
PMID: 28573161
Bio Protoc. 2016 Sep 05;6(17). doi: 10.21769/BioProtoc.1912.

Lipid droplets (LDs) are ubiquitous, dynamic organelles and function as a storage depot for neutral lipids, including triglycerides and cholesterol esters (Walther and Farese, 2012). The movement of lipid species into and out of LDs impacts a variety of...

Liver X receptors and immune regulation.

Biomolecular concepts

Nunomura S, Makishima M, Ra C.
PMID: 25962011
Biomol Concepts. 2010 Dec 01;1(5):381-7. doi: 10.1515/bmc.2010.030.

Recent studies suggest that homeostasis of lipid metabolism is crucial for the function of various immune cells. Oxygenated derivatives of cholesterol (oxysterols) are well-known regulators of lipid metabolism and have diverse functions, such as inhibition of cholesterol synthesis, efflux...

Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase-1: Is It the Link between Sulfur Amino Acids and Lipid Metabolism?.

Biology

Poloni S, Blom HJ, Schwartz IV.
PMID: 26046927
Biology (Basel). 2015 Jun 03;4(2):383-96. doi: 10.3390/biology4020383.

An association between sulfur amino acids (methionine, cysteine, homocysteine and taurine) and lipid metabolism has been described in several experimental and population-based studies. Changes in the metabolism of these amino acids influence serum lipoprotein concentrations, although the underlying mechanisms...

The plasma lipidome in acute myeloid leukemia at diagnosis in relation to clinical disease features.

BBA clinical

Pabst T, Kortz L, Fiedler GM, Ceglarek U, Idle JR, Beyoğlu D.
PMID: 28331812
BBA Clin. 2017 Mar 08;7:105-114. doi: 10.1016/j.bbacli.2017.03.002. eCollection 2017 Jun.

BACKGROUND: Early studies established that certain lipids were lower in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells than normal leukocytes. Because lipids are now known to play an important role in cell signaling and regulation of homeostasis, and are often perturbed...

ACTH Regulation of Adrenal SR-B1.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Shen WJ, Azhar S, Kraemer FB.
PMID: 27242666
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2016 May 13;7:42. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2016.00042. eCollection 2016.

The adrenal gland is one of the prominent sites for steroid hormone synthesis. Lipoprotein-derived cholesterol esters (CEs) delivered via SR-B1 constitute the dominant source of cholesterol for steroidogenesis, particularly in rodents. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulates steroidogenesis through downstream actions...

Myelinogenic cycle and myelination status of the brain of the catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis.

International journal of developmental neuroscience : the official journal of the International Society for Developmental Neuroscience

Yusuf HK, Islam MS.
PMID: 24874143
Int J Dev Neurosci. 1984;2(4):331-6. doi: 10.1016/0736-5748(84)90069-8.

The lipid composition of the brain of the catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis (Bloch) was studied over the age period of 2-12 months, during which time the body weight increased from 2.5 to 33 g. The brain weight increased from 28...

Reversibility of the changes induced by n-3 fatty acids in mouse plasma, liver and blood cell lipids.

The Journal of nutritional biochemistry

Maldonado EN, Furland NE, Pennacchiotti GL, Aveldano MI.
PMID: 11834218
J Nutr Biochem. 2002 Jan;13(1):36-46. doi: 10.1016/s0955-2863(01)00193-0.

The changes induced by dietary n-3 fatty acids (FA) in the lipids and FA of plasma, liver and blood cells, and their reversibility, was studied in mice given a diet containing 9% fish oil (FO) for 2 weeks and...

Separation and Determination of Fatty Acids from Lipid Fractions by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography: Cholesterol Esters of Umbilical Cord Arteries.

Toxicology mechanisms and methods

Romanowicz L, Jaworski S, Galewska Z, Gogiel T.
PMID: 19696943
Toxicol Mech Methods. 2008 Jul;18(6):509-513. doi: 10.1080/15376510701623912. Epub 2008 Jun 23.

Preeclampsia is accompanied by an extensive remodeling of the extracellular matrix of umbilical cord. It is associated with an increase in collagen content in the umbilical cord artery. Furthermore, preeclampsia distinctly reduces proteolytic and gelatinolytic activity, especially after activation...

I. CHOLESTEROL AND CHOLESTEROL ESTERS IN DOG BILE : QUANTITATIVE METHODS.

The Journal of experimental medicine

Wright A.
PMID: 19870254
J Exp Med. 1934 Mar 31;59(4):407-10. doi: 10.1084/jem.59.4.407.

The colorimetric method for the determination of total cholesterol in dog bile is consistently accurate as checked by the oxidative digitonin method. This method has the further advantages of being simple, rapid and economical. A method for the determination...

Skin lipids.

International journal of cosmetic science

Brooks G, Idson B.
PMID: 19291049
