Role of lipid rafts in liver health and disease Dolganiuc AWorld J Gastroenterol 2011[May]; 17 (20): 2520-35Liver diseases are an increasingly common cause of morbidity and mortality; new approaches for investigation of mechanisms of liver diseases and identification of therapeutic targets are emergent. Lipid rafts (LRs) are specialized domains of cellular membranes that are enriched in saturated lipids; they are small, mobile, and are key components of cellular architecture, protein partition to cellular membranes, and signaling events. LRs have been identified in the membranes of all liver cells, parenchymal and non-parenchymal; more importantly, LRs are active participants in multiple physiological and pathological conditions in individual types of liver cells. This article aims to review experimental-based evidence with regard to LRs in the liver, from the perspective of the liver as a whole organ composed of a multitude of cell types. We have gathered up-to-date information related to the role of LRs in individual types of liver cells, in liver health and diseases, and identified the possibilities of LR-dependent therapeutic targets in liver diseases.|Animals[MESH]|Cell Death/physiology[MESH]|Cell Membrane/physiology/ultrastructure[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Liver Diseases/pathology/*physiopathology[MESH]|Liver/*physiology/ultrastructure[MESH]|Membrane Microdomains/*physiology/ultrastructure[MESH]|Signal Transduction/physiology[MESH] |
