Of the individual potentials which comprise the potential profile of a membrane, the least
well understood is the dipole potential. In general, the dipole potential is manifested …

Lipid peroxidation can be broadly defined as the process of inserting a hydroperoxy group
into a lipid. Polyunsaturated fatty acids present in the phospholipids are often the targets for …

Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) form cell-type-specific patterns on the surface of eukaryotic cells.
Degradation of plasma-membrane-derived GSLs in the lysosomes after internalization …

In 1969, Piper and Vane! discovered a labile substance elaborated during anaphylaxis in
guinea pig lung and named it rabbit aorta contracting substance (RCS). In 1975, Hamberg et …

Phospholipase A 2 activity against mixed monolayers of dilauroylphosphatidic acid or
dilauroylphosphatidylcholine with glycosphingolipids can be reversibly modulated by …

Sphingomyelinases (SMases) hydrolyze the membrane constituent sphingomyelin (SM) to
phosphocholine and ceramide (Cer). Growing evidence supports that SMase-induced SM→ …

The prion diseases occur following the conversion of the cellular prion protein (PrP C) into
disease-related isoforms (PrP Sc). In this study, the role of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol …

Glycosphingolipids are ubiquitous components of animal cell membranes. They are
constituted by the basic structure of ceramide with its hydroxyl group linked to single …

Release of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-(GPI-) anchored ectoenzymes from the membrane
by phosphatidylinositol-(PI-) specific phospholipases may play an important role in …
