Researchers at the University of Chicago have found an unsuspected link between the immune system and high plasma lipid levels (cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood) in mice.
«Both the neuronal and average human membrane models — arguably the most compositionally complex plasma membrane lipid models to date — showed non-ideal lateral lipid mixing at different length and time scales, demonstrating the inherent complexity of biological membranes.»
The metabolic analysis of the mice could be combined with clinical assessments, by performing biochemical analysis in blood, plasma, urine and tissues (i.e, lipid and cholesterol content, glycogen content...) and by performing autopsy of the animal at the end of phenotyping study with several tissue collections (i.e, histology, mRNA anlaysis, protein analysis...).
Palmitoylation at Cys - 416 is important for recruitment at both plasma membrane and lipid rafts and association with G protein alpha subunits.
A part of the explanation might be the changes in plasma membrane lipid composition that accompany the secretion process and lead to changes in signaling properties of the receptors present at the plasma membrane (IGF - 1R, IR).
Aβ is believed to penetrate neuronal plasma membranes, where it leads to lipid peroxidation.10 It has also been implicated in deactivating a subunit of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, thereby inhibiting conversion of pyruvate to acetyl CoA and the eventual production of cellular energy as ATP.32 Another way Aβ affects glucose metabolism in the brain is that fragments of Aβ disrupt insulin signaling by binding to neuronal synapses, which alters their shape and function.15, 38 Insulin receptors are abundant at synapses, so if the integrity of the synapse itself has been compromised, the receptors won't function effectively.
