Lipids are the main component of cellular membranes. They are highly diverse in structure, and the distribution of different lipids and their species (membrane lipid composition) varies at the ...
Lipids are composed of fatty acids and include fats, oils, and cholesterol. They are hydrophobic in nature and have various functions in our bodies, such as energy storage, insulation, structural ...
Lipids are a diverse group of organic compounds that are essential for several biological functions, ranging from energy storage to cell signaling. They are loosely described as organic, ...

When you have your cholesterol checked, the doctor typically provides your levels of three fats found in the blood: LDL, HDL and triglycerides. But did you know your body contains thousands of other ...
A new class of lipids improve the rates at which lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) successfully deliver RNA therapeutics and gene editing tools, promising to increase their effectiveness of such treatments.
Lipidomics, the comprehensive analysis of a cell or organism’s lipid profile, is a subgroup within the field of metabolomics that is rapidly developing into a discipline of its own. Until recently, a ...
