31P NMR phospholipid characterization of intracranial tumors.

Abstract:

:Phospholipid extracts from 48 intracranial tumors were analyzed using 31P NMR. Phospholipids commonly identified in the tumor spectra included phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidic acid (PA), diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), uncharacterized phospholipid (U), ethanolamine plasmalogen (EPLAS), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS), sphingomyelin (SM), lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), phosphatidylinositol (PI), a choline phospholipid (CPLIP), and phosphatidylcholine (PC). Differences in the mean relative mole-percentage of phosphorus concentrations of individual phospholipids were used to differentiate among tumors. Neural sheath tumors (neurilemmoma, neurofibroma and fibrosarcoma) were noted to contain significantly elevated levels of SM relative to tumors of neural glial origin and individually, glioblastoma multiforme was noted to contain depressed levels of SM relative to neurilemmoma, neurofibroma and meningioma. Significantly decreased levels of PA were noted for glioblastoma relative to neurilemmoma along with significantly decreased levels of PE relative to meningioma. Elevated levels of LPC and CPLIP were seen in glioblastoma multiforme relative to meningioma. Additional findings included elevated levels of PC for glioblastoma multiforme relative to neurofibroma, and neurilemmoma was differentiated from neurofibroma with elevated levels of PA and depressed levels of PI. 31P NMR phospholipid analysis provides supplemental biochemical information which may be used to improve the interpretation of spectra acquired in vivo, and reveals important tumor-specific biochemical information which may further improve the understanding of the biological behavior of intracranial tumors.

  • Regulation of AQP4 protein expression in rat brain astrocytes: role of P2X7 receptor activation.

    abstract::ATP has been recognized as an important extracellular signaling molecule and P2X receptors are membrane ion channels activated by the binding of extracellular ATP. Since both AQP4 and P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) are known to be present in astrocytes, we examined whether P2X7R activation plays a role in the regulation of AQP...
