Lysophospholipids, exemplified by lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine 1-
phosphate (S1P), are produced by the metabolism and perturbation of biological …

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 1-or 2-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate) is a simple phospholipid
but displays an intriguing cell biology that is mediated via interactions with G protein …

Sheep (Ovis aries) are a major source of meat, milk, and fiber in the form of wool and
represent a distinct class of animals that have a specialized digestive organ, the rumen, that …

Indicine cattle, also referred to as zebu (Bos taurus indicus), play a central role in pastoral
communities across a wide range of agro-ecosystems, from extremely hot semiarid regions …

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is one of the simplest glycerophospholipids with one fatty acid
chain and a phosphate group as a polar head. Although LPA had been viewed just as a …

Hypotrichosis simplex is a group of nonsyndromic human alopecias. We mapped an
autosomal recessive form of this disorder to chromosome 13q14. 11–13q21. 33, and …

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA; monoacyl-glycerol-3-phosphate) is a lipid mediator that
functions as a mitogen and motility factor for many cell types. LPA signals through six …

scarring alopecia among women of African ancestry. The disease is occasionally observed …

p2y5 is an orphan G protein-coupled receptor that is closely related to the fourth
lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor, LPA 4. Here we report that p2y5 is a novel LPA …

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lipid composed of a phosphate group, a glycerol
backbone, and a single acyl chain that varies in length and saturation. LPA activates six …
