This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty years have elapsed since cytoplasmic proteins exhibiting high-affinity binding of long-chain fatty acids were first identified (Ockner et al., Science 177:56-58, 1972). These cellular fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) are now well established to comprise a ligand-defined group of macromolecules belonging to a family of cytoplasmic lipid binding proteins. Unique features of the FABPs are the existence of distinct types of FABP and that these are found in a variety of tissues in remarkable abundance, with some cells expressing more than one type. The physiological significance of the FABPs has only partly been elucidated. By increasing the cytoplasmic solubilization of fatty acids, the cellular FABPs are considered to function primarily in intracellular fatty acid transport, but may also be assigned important regulatory roles in cellular lipid homeostasis as well as in the modulation of cell growth and differentiation. The broad interests in cellular FABPs has led to the organization of the 1st International Workshop on Fatty Acid-Binding Protein, held in Maastricht, the Netherlands, in 1989. Prompted by the success of the first meeting, the 2nd International Workshop on Fatty-Acid-Binding Proteins, which was held again in Maastricht, on August 31 and September 1, 1992, brought together scientific scpecialists in the field of FABP research for two days of intensive and fruitful discussion. This volume is a collection of selected papers from this conference, and thus provides the state-of-the-art knowledge of cellular FABPs. The contributors to this issue represent pioneering as well as new investigators, and also reflect the multidisciplinary nature of research in this exciting and rapidly progressing field.

Book Synopsis Cellular Lipid Binding Proteins by : Jan Jansen
Download or read book Cellular Lipid Binding Proteins written by Jan Jansen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well established that cellular lipid binding proteins serve central roles in cellular lipid uptake and metabolism. Evidence has been presented that various metabolic diseases, such as hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, insulin resistance, and diabetes, are characterized by malfunctioning or deficiencies in cellular lipid binding proteins. For better understanding of the action of lipids as signaling compounds and the role of lipids in intermediary metabolism, it is essential to have detailed knowledge of the interactions between lipids and their cognant binding proteins. In view of this growing interest in lipid-protein interaction, the 4th International Conference on Lipid Binding Proteins was held in Maastricht, The Netherlands, in June 2001. The proceedings of the previous three meetings have been published in Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry. The present focused issue of Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry comprises selected papers based on the lectures and posters presented during the 4th conference, and provides insight into the significance of these proteins for the functioning of the cell.

Book Synopsis Lipids in Health and Disease by : Peter Quinn
Download or read book Lipids in Health and Disease written by Peter Quinn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-08-27 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lipids are functionally versatile molecules. They have evolved from relatively simple hydrocarbons that serve as depot storages of metabolites and barriers to the permeation of solutes into complex compounds that perform a variety of signalling functions in higher organisms. This volume is devoted to the polar lipids and their constituents. We have omitted the neutral lipids like fats and oils because their function is generally to act as deposits of metabolizable substrates. The sterols are also outside the scope of the present volume and the reader is referred to volume 28 of this series which is the subject of cholesterol. The polar lipids are comprised of fatty acids attached to either glycerol or sphingosine. The fatty acids themselves constitute an important reservoir of substrates for conversion into families of signalling and modulating molecules including the eicosanoids amongst which are the prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leucotrienes. The way fatty acid metabolism is regulated in the liver and how fatty acids are desaturated are subjects considered in the first part of this volume. This section also deals with the modulation of protein function and inflammation by unsaturated fatty acids and their derivatives. New insights into the role of fatty acid synthesis and eicosenoid function in tumour progression and metastasis are presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heart-type Fatty Acid-Binding Protein (H-FABP) is required for high rates of skeletal muscle long chain fatty acid (LCFA) oxidation and esterification. Here we assessed whether H-FABP affects soleus muscle glucose uptake when measured in vitro in the absence of LCFA. Wild type and H-FABP null mice were fed a standard chow or high fat diet before muscle isolation. With the chow, the mutation increased insulin-dependent deoxyglucose uptake by 141% (P

Book Synopsis Novel Roles of Sterol Regulatory Element-binding Protein-1 in Liver by : Victoria N. Jideonwo
Download or read book Novel Roles of Sterol Regulatory Element-binding Protein-1 in Liver written by Victoria N. Jideonwo and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Protein-1 (SREBP-1) is a conserved transcription factor of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family (bHLH-Zip) that primarily regulates glycolytic and lipogenic enzymes such as L-pyruvate kinase, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, fatty acid synthase, stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1, and mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 1. SREBP-1c activity is higher in the liver of human obese patients, as well as ob/ob and db/db mouse models of obesity and type 2 diabetes, underscoring the role of this transcription factor as a contributor to hepatic steatosis and insulin resistance. Nonetheless, SREBP-1 deficient ob/ob mice, do not display improved glycemia despite a significant decrease in hepatic lipid accumulation, suggesting that SREBP-1 might play a role at regulating carbohydrate metabolism. By silencing SREBP-1 in the liver of normal and type 2 diabetes db/db mice, we showed that indeed, SREBP-1 is needed for appropriate regulation of glycogen synthesis and gluconeogenesis enzyme gene expression. Depleting SREBP-1 activity more than 90%, resulted in a significant loss of glycogen deposition and increased expression of Pck1 and G6pc. Hence, the benefits of reducing de novo lipogenesis in db/db mice were offset by the negative impact on gluconeogenesis and glycogen synthesis. Some studies had also indicated that SREBP-1 regulates the insulin signaling pathway, through regulation of IRS2 and a subunit of the PI3K complex, p55g. To gain insight on the consequences of silencing SREBP-1 on insulin sensitivity, we analyzed the insulin signaling and mTOR pathways, as both are interconnected through feedback mechanisms. These studies suggest that SREBP-1 regulates S6K1, a downstream effector of mTORC1, and a key molecule to activate the synthesis of protein. Furthermore, these analyses revealed that depletion of SREBP-1 leads to reduced insulin sensitivity. Overall, our data indicates that SREBP-1 regulates pathways important for the fed state, including lipogenesis, glycogen and protein synthesis, while inhibiting gluconeogenesis. Therefore, SREBP-1 coordinates multiple aspects of the anabolic response in response to nutrient abundance. These results are in agreement with emerging studies showing that SREBP-1 regulates a complex network of genes to coordinate metabolic responses needed for cell survival and growth, including fatty acid metabolism; phagocytosis and membrane biosynthesis; insulin signaling; and cell proliferation.
