Diacylglyceryl-N,N,N-trimethylhomoserine-dependent lipid remodeling in a green alga, Chlorella kessleri

Yutaro Oishi et al.

Summary: Oishi et al. discovered that a green alga Chlorella kessleri synthesized a betaine lipid DGTS to replace phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine during phosphate deprivation. This study sheds light on the phosphorus-deficiency acclimation strategies in lower green plants through lipid remodeling.

Charge and rigidity effects on the encapsulation of quercetin by multilamellar vesicles

L. U. C. I. A. N. A. CUSTODIO et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of different lipid compositions on the encapsulation of quercetin using multilamellar vesicles. The results demonstrated that rigidity imposed by cholesterol increased the homogeneity of the size distribution and encapsulation efficiency, while charge modulated the size and encapsulation efficiency.

Paradigms of Protist/Bacteria Symbioses Affecting Human Health: Acanthamoeba species and Trichomonas vaginalis

Fiona L. Henriquez et al.

Summary: The study of symbiotic relationships between unicellular eukaryotes and prokaryotes has gained increasing attention from microbiologists and evolutionists since Lynn Margulis proposed the theory of endosymbiotic origin of organelles. While the impact of these relationships on human health is still not well understood, unique cases of microbial endosymbioses involving human eukaryotic pathogens include Trichomonas vaginalis and Acanthamoeba, which are characterized by bacteria-rich environments. Further research is needed to explore the potential reasons behind the presence of bacterial endosymbionts in these specific pathogens.

Polar lipidomic profile shows Chlorococcum amblystomatis as a promising source of value-added lipids

Tiago A. Conde et al.

Summary: The lipidome of Chlorococcum amblystomatis was identified for the first time using HILIC-HR-ESI-MS/MS, revealing high levels of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and bioactive properties. The lipid extract showed antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential, with low atherogenic and thrombogenic indices, making it a valuable source for various industries.
