Tetracyclines increase lipid phosphate phosphatase expression on plasma membranes and turnover of plasma lysophosphatidate
Download2016-01-01
Tang, Xiaoyun, Zhao, Yuan Y., Dewald, Jay, Curtis, Jonathan M., Brindley, David N.
Extracellular lysophosphatidate and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) are important bioactive lipids, which signal through G-protein-coupled receptors to stimulate cell growth and survival. The lysophosphatidate and S1P signals are terminated partly by degradation through three broad-specificity...

The characterization of mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) in clonal pancreatic beta cells: Multiple modes and regulation
Download2004
Chan, Catherine B., Bikopoulos, George, Koshkin, Vasilij, Wheeler, Michael B.
Mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), which contributes substantially to the regulation of normal mitochondrial metabolism, also plays a crucial role in the initiation of cell death. It is known that MPT is regulated in a tissue-specific manner. The importance of MPT in the pancreatic...
