malfunction | LPCAT1 gene-trapped mice show decreased lung saturated phosphatidylcholine and higher perinatal mortality due to respiratory failure. LPCAT1-KO mice also show decreased lung dipalmitoyl-PC and blood oxygenation levels, and lower survival ratios compared to wild-type mice in a ventilator-induced lung injury model, which is an acute lung inflammatory model. Retinal degeneration and defects in visual function are also reported in a mouse strain containing a mutation in LPCAT1, rd11, reduced retinal dipalmitoyl-PC contents in mutant mice, reproducing the similar observation in the lung | Mus musculus |

malfunction | LPCAT3 deficiency decreases arachidonic acid containing PC, PE, and PS and induces neonatal lethality due to triacylglycerol (TG) accumulation and dysfunction in enterocytes. LPCAT3-KO mice show longer and bigger small intestine. In response to high-fat feeding, LPCAT3 deficiency in the intestine increases a gut hormone, GLP-1, and oleoylethanolamide. These results suggest that AA-containing PC is a key molecule in regulating dietary lipid absorption. LPCAT3 deficiency reduces cholesterol efflux in macrophages and intestine. Excess cellular cholesterol by LPCAT3 deficiency increases intestinal stem cell proliferation and promotes tumorigenesis | Mus musculus |
metabolism | phospholipase A2 (PLA2) plays a role in membrane phospholipid remodeling by coupling with re-acylation processes mediated by lysophospholipid acyltransferases (LPLATs) to generate sn-1/sn-2 fatty acid asymmetry of phospholipids. Lysophospholipids are acylated by LPLAT to generate phospholipids phosphatidic acid (PA), phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), and cardiolipin (CL) by LPLATs. In the Kennedy pathway, glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) is first acylated by glycerol-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) to form lyso-PA (LPA), which is subsequently converted to PA by LPA-acyltransferase (LPAAT) | Mus musculus |
