Journal ArticleDOI
Lipid composition of Botrytis cinerea and inhibition of its radiolabelling by the fungicide iprodione
TL;DR: The data show that iprodione had a selective effect on lipid metabolism, and the altered pattern of labelling suggested that choline (ethanolamine) phosphotransferase would be worth investigating as a primary site of action.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutritional lipid supply can control the heat shock response of B16 melanoma cells in culture
Mária Péter,Gábor Balogh,Imre Gombos,Gerhard Liebisch,Ibolya Horváth,Zsolt Török,Enikő Nagy,Andriy Maslyanko,Sándor Benkő,Gerd Schmitz,John L. Harwood,László Vígh +11 more
TL;DR: The data emphasize the pivotal role of nutrient supply (in this case for PUFAs) in modifying responses to stress and highlight the need for the careful control of culture conditions when assessing cellular responses in vitro.
Journal Article
Changes in phospholipid fatty acid composition and triacylglycerol content in mouse tissues after infection with bacille Calmette-Guérin.
TL;DR: Changes in the lipids of tissues from mice infected with bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) have been detected by gas-liquid chromatography and the relation of these findings to an increased sensitivity to bacterial endotoxins is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conserved valproic-acid-induced lipid droplet formation in Dictyostelium and human hepatocytes identifies structurally active compounds
Lucy M. Elphick,Nadine Pawolleck,Irina A. Guschina,Leila Chaieb,Daniel Eikel,Heinz Nau,John L. Harwood,Nick Plant,Robin S.B. Williams +8 more
TL;DR: Dictyostelium could provide both a novel model system for the analysis of lipid droplet formation in human hepatocytes and a rapid method for identifying VPA-related compounds that show liver toxicology.
Book ChapterDOI
Recent Environmental Concerns and Lipid Metabolism
TL;DR: A wide variety of environmental factors have been shown to produce effects on plant lipid metabolism as discussed by the authors, ranging from natural influences (such as light) over which Man has little control to xenobiotics which are used deliberately (e.g. pesticides) or which enter the environment accidently.
