Mutation of beta-glucosidase 2 causes glycolipid storage disease and impaired male fertility.
- Y. Yildiz, H. Matern, +7 authors D. Russell
- Medicine, Biology
- The Journal of clinical investigation
- 1 November 2006
beta-Glucosidase 2 (GBA2) is a resident enzyme of the endoplasmic reticulum thought to play a role in the metabolism of bile acid-glucose conjugates. To gain insight into the biological function of… Expand
Extraction and analysis of sterols in biological matrices by high performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.
- J. McDonald, Bonne M. Thompson, Erin C McCrum, D. Russell
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Methods in enzymology
- 2007
We describe the development of a high performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) method that allows the identification and quantitation of sterols in mammalian cells and tissues.… Expand
27-Hydroxycholesterol promotes cell-autonomous, ER-positive breast cancer growth.
- Q. Wu, T. Ishikawa, +11 authors P. Shaul
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell reports
- 14 November 2013
To date, estrogen is the only known endogenous estrogen receptor (ER) ligand that promotes ER+ breast tumor growth. We report that the cholesterol metabolite 27-hydroxycholesterol (27HC) stimulates… Expand
Subcellular organelle lipidomics in TLR-4-activated macrophages1[S]
- A. Andreyev, E. Fahy, +16 authors E. Dennis
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Lipid Research
- 1 September 2010
Lipids orchestrate biological processes by acting remotely as signaling molecules or locally as membrane components that modulate protein function. Detailed insight into lipid function requires… Expand
A Mouse Macrophage Lipidome*♦
- E. Dennis, Raymond A. Deems, +25 authors S. Subramaniam
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 5 October 2010
We report the lipidomic response of the murine macrophage RAW cell line to Kdo2-lipid A, the active component of an inflammatory lipopolysaccharide functioning as a selective TLR4 agonist and… Expand
Cilia-Associated Oxysterols Activate Smoothened.
- D. Raleigh, Navdar Sever, +18 authors J. Reiter
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular cell
- 18 October 2018
Primary cilia are required for Smoothened to transduce vertebrate Hedgehog signals, but how Smoothened accumulates in cilia and is activated is incompletely understood. Here, we identify… Expand
Liver-Derived Signals Sequentially Reprogram Myeloid Enhancers to Initiate and Maintain Kupffer Cell Identity.
- Mashito Sakai, T. Troutman, +19 authors C. Glass
- Medicine, Biology
- Immunity
- 15 October 2019
Tissue environment plays a powerful role in establishing and maintaining the distinct phenotypes of resident macrophages, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we… Expand
Cryo-EM structure of oxysterol-bound human Smoothened coupled to a heterotrimeric Gi
- X. Qi, H. Liu, Bonne M. Thompson, J. McDonald, C. Zhang, X. Li
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Nature
- 5 June 2019
The oncoprotein Smoothened (SMO), a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) of the Frizzled-class (class-F), transduces the Hedgehog signal from the tumour suppressor Patched-1 (PTCH1) to the… Expand
Bazedoxifene and conjugated estrogen prevent diet-induced obesity, hepatic steatosis, and type 2 diabetes in mice without impacting the reproductive tract.
- Jose Antonio Vesga Barrera, K. Chambliss, +5 authors P. Shaul
- Biology, Medicine
- American journal of physiology. Endocrinology and…
- 1 August 2014
Despite the capacity of estrogens to favorably regulate body composition and glucose homeostasis, their use to combat obesity and type 2 diabetes is not feasible, because they promote sex… Expand
Oxysterols provide innate immunity to bacterial infection by mobilizing cell surface accessible cholesterol
- Michael E Abrams, K. A. Johnson, +8 authors N. M. Alto
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Nature Microbiology
- 13 April 2020
Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase ( CH25H ) is an interferon-stimulated gene that converts cholesterol to the oxysterol 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC). Circulating 25HC modulates essential immunological… Expand
