Article Title: Signal transduction through lipid second messengers
Abstract: This review emphasizes the generation of glycerolipid and sphingolipid second messengers, and their molecular targets. The role of the phosphatidylinositol transfer protein and phospholipase D in signal transmission, and the structures of the 1,2-diacylglycerol and calcium-binding sites of protein kinase C are discussed. Further, ceramide signaling through protein kinases and the role of cross-talk in the signaling of apoptosis and inflammation are addressed.
