Fluorescence-Gated Flow Cytometry Approach for Measuring Lipid Flippase Activity in Mammalian Cells

Abstract P4‑ATPase lipid flippases establish transbilayer lipid asymmetry in eukaryotic membranes, with increasing evidence indicating a role for interacting partners in regulating flippase activity. However, assessing interactor‑dependent effects on flippase activity in mammalia...

Mitochondrial bioenergetic remodeling underlies fingolimod-induced immunometabolic adaptation in multiple sclerosis

Mitochondrial dysfunction and immune cell metabolic reprogramming are central mechanisms driving the pathogenesis and progression of multiple sclerosis (MS). Fingolimod (FTY720), a sphingosine-1-phosphate analog widely used in MS, limits lymphocyte egress from lymphoid organs; ho...
