A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from animal tissues.

TLDR
In this paper, the authors described a simplified version of the method and reported the results of a study of its application to different tissues, including the efficiency of the washing procedure in terms of the removal from tissue lipides of some non-lipide substances of special biochemical interest.

A Lipidomic Analysis of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

TL;DR: NAFLD is associated with numerous changes in the lipid composition of the liver, and the potential implications are discussed.

Preparation of rat liver cells. 3. Enzymatic requirements for tissue dispersion.

TL;DR: Isolated perfused rat livers were dispersed by a two-step procedure of Ca2+ removal (probably including the removal of a Ca2-dependent adhesion factor) followed by enzymatic treatment, and cells were active in the synthesis of RNA, protein, glycogen and various metabolites, and showed sensitivity towards steroid and polypeptide hormones.

Calcium-dependent activation of a multifunctional protein kinase by membrane phospholipids.

TL;DR: The proenzyme of a Ca2+-dependent protease-activated protein kinase previously obtained from mammalian tissues showed an ability to phosphorylate five histone fractions and muscle phosphorylase kinase, and appeared to possess multifunctional catalytic activities.

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.
