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 ...

Ether lipids (EL) are glycerophospholipids with a different structure and functional characteristics than fatty acids, thus requiring a specialized biosynthesis pathway. Peroxisomal fatty acyl-CoA ...

“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 ...

Chemerin is a key adipokine that regulates lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity, and thus is involved in many metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes. In addition, it plays a critical role ...

Using artificial intelligence (AI), researchers headed by a team at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have come up with a new way to design nanoparticles that can more efficiently deliver ...

Chemerin is a key adipokine—a signaling protein released by adipose tissue—that regulates lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity and thus is involved in many metabolic diseases such as obesity and ...
