TLDR
The results suggest that the level of the PtdIns(4)P pool in the plasma membrane is sensitive and the distribution of PTDIns( 4)P dramatically changes by agonist stimulation, and there are active sites of production or replenishment of Ptd insurance at undifferentiated membrane and caveolar areas.

Osh Proteins Control Nanoscale Lipid Organization Necessary for PI(4,5)P2 Synthesis

TL;DR: It is shown that ORP-related Osh lipid exchange proteins are critical for the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate [PI( 4,5)P2], a key regulator of dynamic events at the PM.

In focus in HCB.

TL;DR: Taking all of the data into consideration, it is recommended that DNase I and citrate buffer may offer less harsh alternatives to hydrochloric acid for DNA denaturation in the BrdU staining protocol.

Liposomes as colloidal nanovehicles: on the road to success in intravenous drug delivery

TL;DR: The first closed bilayer phospholipid system, the liposome system, has been making steady progress over five decades of extensive research and has been efficient in achieving many desirable parameters such as remote drug loading, size-controlling measures, longer circulation half-lives, and triggered release.

Nanoscale domain formation of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate in the plasma and vacuolar membranes of living yeast cells.

TL;DR: The present study showed that PtdIns(4)P is specifically localised in the flat undifferentiated plasma membrane compartment and in the vacuolar membrane, where it was concentrated in intramembrane particle (IMP)-deficient raft-like domains, which are tightly bound to lipid droplets, but not surrounding IMP-rich non-raft domains in geometrical IMP-distributed patterns in the stationary phase.

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate on Rab7-positive autophagosomes revealed by the freeze-fracture replica labeling.

TL;DR: It is suggested that PtdIns(4)P is localized to the cytoplasmic leaflet of the autophagosome at later stages, which may illuminate the importance of Ptd insurance at the later stages of autophosome formation.

Direct visualization of ras proteins in spatially distinct cell surface microdomains

TL;DR: It is found that an inner-plasma membrane lipid raft marker displays cholesterol-dependent clustering in microdomains with a mean diameter of 44 nm that occupy 35% of the cell surface, illustrating that the inner plasma membrane comprises a complex mosaic of discrete micro domains.

PIP2 is a necessary cofactor for ion channel function: how and why?

TL;DR: This review discusses the dependence of ion channels on phosphoinositides and considers possible mechanisms by which PIP2 and analogues regulate ion channel activity.

Membrane Phospholipid Control of Nucleotide Sensitivity of KATP Channels

TL;DR: It is proposed that membrane-incorporated PIPs can bind to positive charges in the cytoplasmic region of the KATP channel's Kir6.2 subunit, stabilizing the open state of the channel and antagonizing the inhibitory effect of ATP.

PIP2 and PIP as Determinants for ATP Inhibition of KATP Channels

TL;DR: It is reported here that phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and phosphorus-4-phosphates(PIP) controlled ATP inhibition of cloned KATP channels (Kir6.2 and SUR1) and represents a mechanism for control of excitability through phospholipids.
