Synthetic molecules that target specific lipids serve as powerful tools for understanding membrane biology and may also enable new applications in biotechnology and medicine. For example, selective ...

As a field, lipidomics is in its infancy, yet it has already begun to influence lipid biochemistry in myriad ways. As with other omic technologies, the field is driven by advances in analytical ...

For centuries arsenic has been synonymous with poison and peril. However, it is also ubiquitous in the Earth’s crust, and runoff from natural deposits and industrial processes has spread it throughout ...

Researchers at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya and the Institute of Photonic Sciences have created a Raman spectral ...

The team used the AMG1541 LNP to deliver an mRNA influenza vaccine in mice. They compared this vaccine’s effectiveness to a flu vaccine made with the lipid SM-102, which is FDA-approved and was used ...

< Epoxyisotrienic acids (EETs) are rapidly incorporated into lipids of varying complexity, which could ...

Ekin Atilla-Gokcumen is a chemical biologist who studies lipids, a class of organic molecules that includes fats, waxes and sterols like cholesterol. Atilla-Gokcumen is among scientists whose work has ...

The Max Planck-NCBS Center on Lipid Research will be led by the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden, as well as by the National Centre of Biological Sciences (NCBS) ...

James Parkinson, a 19th-century British surgeon, first reported what he called “the shaking palsy” in 1817, after observing a handful of patients with tremors and difficulty moving. More than 200 ...

Background: Some environmental chemical exposures are lipophilic and need to be adjusted by serum lipid levels before data analyses. There are currently various strategies that attempt to account for ...
