Microglia overloaded with lipids choke on Aβ in APP knock-in mice. Depleting the fat-storage-associated protein FIT2 reduced lipid droplet formation. Sans FIT2, microglia rein in plaques. “This adds ...

Microalgae have high lipid accumulation capacity, high growth rate and high photosynthetic efficiency which are considered as one of the most promising alternative sustainable feedstocks for producing ...

Lipid peroxides are oxidative degradation products of lipids, generated by a free radical chain reaction. Because of their abundance of reactive hydrogens, polyunsaturated fatty acids are highly ...

Lipids are hydrophobic or amphiphilic small molecules that include sterols, waxes, fatty acids and phospholipids, and are insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvent. Biological lipids are ...

Lipids are a fundamental class of organic molecules implicated in a wide range of biological processes related to their structural diversity, and based on this can be broadly classified into five ...

LNPs are solid or semi-solid particles at room temperature. They are composed of a lipid core stabilized by surfactants or other agents. This lipid core provides a hydrophobic environment ideal for ...

A speaker highlighted key advances in lipid treatment in 2024. Topics included triglyceride and lipoprotein(a) management as well as another setback to the “HDL hypothesis.” In 2024 ...

To their first question, the researchers found that adipocyte depletion happens quite early in the fibrotic process. Adipocytes in the skin contain one large liquid droplet of fat molecules (or lipids ...

Unsaturated fats are an essential part of your daily diet. Your body uses fats for energy, to keep cells working, produce hormones, and help your body absorb oil-based vitamins (A, D, E, and K). Since ...
