“We’ve never had such an in-depth map of the CD1 lipidome available,” said Patricia Barral, an immunologist at King’s College London who was not involved with the work. “It will enable us to start ...

In addition to providing energy, lipids are also essential building blocks of our cell membranes. However, despite their ...

In a recent study published in Cell Host & Microbe, researchers highlighted the role of lipids, especially bacteria-derived lipids in the gut microbiome, in mammalian physiology in the context of ...

Researchers have studied the cell membranes of ctenophores ('comb jellies') and found they had unique lipid structures that allow them to live under intense pressure. The bottom of the ocean is not ...

Scientists have developed a method for analysing the structure of lipid nanoparticles that could be used to improve vaccine and drug delivery, targeting a wide range of health issues. A team led by ...

Scientists who work with lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) say they have developed a new type of material capable of reaching the lungs and the eyes. They call their study “Thiophene-based lipids for mRNA ...

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are one of the most exciting technologies in drug delivery. LNPs protect and deliver genetic material into cells, allowing a large spectrum of RNA therapeutics, including ...

In this article, data-dependent acquisition (DDA) experimental data collected by the ZenoTOF 8600 system was analyzed with MS-DIAL 5.5 software to detect and classify lipid molecular species in human ...
