For many lipids such as phospholipids, glycerolipids and sphingolipids, thousands of different molecular species were found to be present in tissues and cells. Having the ability to qualitatively ...

Lying at the heart of this early warning system are lipids, fatty compounds previously seen by cancer biologists primarily as a fuel source for burgeoning tumors. But now, a new study in Nature ...

By understanding how lipid interactions regulate DP2 activity, researchers can develop targeted therapies that minimize side effects. More information: Jiuyin Xu et al, Molecular basis of lipid ...

Integral membrane proteins carry out essential functions in the cell, and their activities are often modulated by specific protein-lipid interactions in the membrane. Here, we elucidate the intricate ...

An international research team led by the University of California, Irvine has discovered a new type of skeletal tissue that offers great potential for advancing regenerative medicine and tissue ...
