This review focuses on the phospholipid metabolism regulated by the cell cycle.
Phospholipids are the major cellular constituents required for the assembly of biological …

In the 1970s, phospholipids were still considered mere building blocks of the membrane
lipid bilayer, but the subsequent realization that phospholipids could also serve as second …

Phospholipids play multiple roles in cells in forming the permeability barrier of the cell
membrane and intracellular organdies, in providing the supporting matrix and surface for …

Publisher Summary This chapter provides an overview of phospholipid metabolism at an
advanced level. Phospholipids store second messenger precursors—such as eicosanoids …

An early event in evolution was the development of cell membranes, which served to
encapsulate small microenvironments in which biochemical processes could occur with …

In mammalian cells, phospholipids and cholesterol are assembled into bilayer membranes
forming the plasma membrane, nuclear envelope, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum …

This review explores current information on the interrelationship between phospholipid
biochemistry and cell biology. Phosphatidylcholine is the most abundant phospholipid and it …

The membranes of mammalian cells contain hundreds of different phospholipid species, a
variety of glycolipids and cholesterol. While the reasons for such compositional diversity are …

The cell cycle is a ubiquitous, multi-step process that is essential for growth and proliferation
of cells. The role of membrane lipids in cell cycle regulation is not explored well, although a …

The formation of membrane phospholipid is coordinated with the cell cycle in a colony-
stimulating factor 1-dependent macrophage cell line. Net phospholipid accumulation occurs …
