General description

Lyso-phosphatidylcholine (LPC) is a bioactive proinflammatory lipid secreted on pathological response. It has a choline group at its polar head. Lysophosphatidylcholine (Lyso-PC) is a component of blood plasma, vascular tissue and lipoproteins.

Application

12:0 Lyso PC has been used to study its neuritogenic activity and the applications of exogenous lipids.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) alters various functions in different cell-types, like endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, monocytes, macrophages and T-cells. It is associated with atherosclerosis and inflammatory diseases. LPC activates many second messengers including, protein kinase C, extracellular-signal-regulated kinases and protein tyrosine kinases.

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are large proteinaceous channels embedded in double nuclear membranes, which carry out nucleocytoplasmic exchange. The mechanism of nuclear pore assembly involves a unique challenge, as it requires creation of a long-lived membrane-lined channel connecting the inner

We previously demonstrated that secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) exhibit neurotrophin-like neuritogenic activity in the rat pheochromocytoma cell line PC12. In this study, we further analyzed the mechanism whereby sPLA2 displays neurite-inducing activity. Exogenously added mammalian group X
