Lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) shuttle their cargo lipids between cellular membranes. LTPs facilitate the costly extraction of a lipid from a donor membrane, and its delivery into the acceptor membrane, but the mechanisms remain poorly understood. We combined extensive molecular dynamics simulations...

Non-alcoholic fatty liver is the most common liver disease worldwide. Here, we show that the mitochondrial protein mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) protects against liver disease. Reduced Mfn2 expression was detected in liver biopsies from patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Moreover, reduced Mfn2...

The distinct activities of cellular organelles are dependent on the proper function of their membranes. Coordinated membrane biogenesis of the different organelles necessitates interorganelle transport of lipids from their site of synthesis to their destination membranes. Several proteins and traffi...

Metabolic dysregulation is a hallmark of cancer and provides insights into biomarker discovery. Untargeted 1H NMR metabolomics offers a non-invasive means to identify biomarkers in breast cancer (BC) patients; however, metabolic signatures specific to Nigerian women remain poorly understood. This...

Alterations in myocardial energy substrate metabolism following myocardial infarction (MI) results in structural and functional abnormalities of the heart. The fatty acid translocase CD36 (CD36), acrucial membrane protein, plays a pivotal role in regulating fatty acid (FA) uptake and lipid homeos...

The induction of endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein responses (UPRER) contributes to cancer development and progression. We recently linked microbiota-related triggers to the tumor-promoting role of signal transducer activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) in the colon. Here we substantiate ...

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) transfers cholesteryl ester (CE) and triglyceride (TG) between lipoproteins, which alters lipoprotein metabolism. Hamster and human CETPs have very different preferences for CE versus TG as substrate. To assess the impact of altering CETP’s substrate prefere...

To explore the impact of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene on atherosclerosis-associated phenotypes, we newly generate a human CETP-transgenic (Tg[hCETP]) strain of the genetic background of spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). Microarray gene expression analysis was performed on the l...
