Microdetermination of long-chain fatty acids in plasma and tissues.

TL;DR: The present paper outlines the phase relations of the ternary system at room temperature, gives partition coefficients of fatty acids and other materials in a standard two-phase extraction mixture, discusses use of the system in countercurrent estraction, and outlines some modifications of the original procedure that have developed during five years of analytical work in this laboratory.

Vesicle formation during reticulocyte maturation. Association of plasma membrane activities with released vesicles (exosomes)

TL;DR: The lipid composition of the vesicles shows the high sphingomyelin content characteristic of sheep red cell plasma membranes, but not white cell or platelet membranes, consistent with the conclusion that the vESicles are of reticulocyte origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Getting to the fat of the matter: models, methods and assumptions for dealing with lipids in stable isotope analyses

TL;DR: The results indicate that lipid extraction or normalization is most important when lipid content is variable among consumers of interest or between consumers and end members, and when differences in δ13C between end members is <10–12‰.
Journal ArticleDOI

A simple, specific spray for the detection of phospholipids on thin-layer chromatograms.

TL;DR: A chemical reagent spray specific for phosphate esters, based on molybdenum blue, gives an instantaneous, specific reaction with phospholipids on silica gel or alumina thin layer chromatography (TLC) plates.

GPR120 is an Omega-3 Fatty Acid Receptor Mediating Potent Anti-Inflammatory and Insulin Sensitizing Effects

TL;DR: GPR120 is a functional omega-3 FA receptor/sensor and mediates potent insulin sensitizing and antidiabetic effects in vivo by repressing macrophage-induced tissue inflammation.

Preparation of lipide extracts from brain tissue.

TL;DR: A simple method is described for the preparation of extracts of total pure lipides from brain tissue by homogenizing the tissue with a chloroform-methanol mixture and washing free of non-lipide contaminants.

The quantitative estimation of cerebrosides in nervous tissue.

TL;DR: The values for cerebrosides found in the current literature include gangliosides, and other investigators (JOHNSON, MCNABB, and ROSSITER, 1950; CUMINGS, 1953; BLACKWOOD and CUMings, 1954) have neglected the ganglariosides.

Isolation of brain strandin, a new type of large molecule tissue component.

TL;DR: The isolation from brain tissue of a substance to which the name of strandin has been given for descriptive purposes is reported, which has the property of forming long strands that show perfect orientation under polarized light.
