General description

Phosphatidic acid (PA) has two fatty acids and one phosphate group attached to a glycerol backbone. The two fatty acids are present at position sn-1 and sn-2 of the C-atoms and the phosphate group is present in the sn-3 position of the C-atom.

Application

18:0 PA may be used:
  • as a component in the bilayer to study its vesiculation ability on different coat protein I (COPI) fission factor
  • to study its effects on intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in C6 rat glioma and L2071 mouse fibroblast cells
  • to study its effects on phosphorylation of cytochrome b(558) alpha chain (p22phox)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidic acid (PA) acts as a biosynthetic precursor for the production of membrane glycerophospholipid and triacylglycerol. It participates in the modulation of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. It may also participate in membrane trafficking, specifically in membrane fusion and fission.

Mounting evidence suggests that the tumor microenvironment is profoundly immunosuppressive. Thus, mitigating tumor immunosuppression is crucial for inducing sustained antitumor immunity. Whereas previous studies involved intratumoral injection, we report here an inhalable nanoparticle-immunotherapy system targeting pulmonary antigen presenting cells (APCs)

Studies on vesicle formation by the Coat Protein I (COPI) complex have contributed to a basic understanding of how vesicular transport is initiated. Phosphatidic acid (PA) and diacylglycerol (DAG) have been found previously to be required for the fission stage

CRISPR-Cas gene editing and messenger RNA-based protein replacement therapy hold tremendous potential to effectively treat disease-causing mutations with diverse cellular origin. However, it is currently impossible to rationally design nanoparticles that selectively target specific tissues. Here, we report a strategy
