Imbalances in this network contribute to the pathogenesis of human disease. Although the function of a particular signalling lipid is traditionally studied in isolation, this review attempts a ...

The researchers found a total of 419 different lipids, most of them (93%) unevenly distributed among the different parts of ...

It turned out that changes in the lipids of humans are mostly located in the brain. "The human-specific lipids we discovered are primarily involved in the metabolic pathways associated with ...

Lipids include fats (solid at room temperature) and oils (liquid at room temperature). Lipids are an important part of a healthy diet. The body uses lipids as an energy store, as insulation and to ...

Lipids are the most abundant organic compounds found in the brain and the main component of plasma membranes of nervous cells. In addition to their architectural functions for plasma membranes, lipids ...

"There is an enormous diversity of lipids in nature, and almost every organism has its own set of lipids, known as lipidome. Human cells, for example, employ hundreds of different types of lipids," ...

Compound lipid fluxes are depicted as rivers and waterfalls flowing down a human-shaped mountain, leading to distinct pools ...
