This Collection provides updated research from the Lipids in Cell Biology 2025 Collection. Cells require lipids to maintain their integrity and separate cellular functions for appropriate homeostasis ...

Interactions between proteins and lipids have diverse and complex roles in various biological processes, ranging from the structure, function, and dynamics of biological membranes to host-pathogen ...

LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) is a specialized process for degrading dead cells, microbes or other particles. It plays a role in innate immunity, inflammation regulation and anticancer responses.

Lipids are fatty molecules that play critical roles in cell function, including membrane structure, energy storage and nutrient absorption. Most lipids are made in a cell organelle called the ...

OHSU scientists Fikadu Tafesse, Ph.D., at left, and Carsten Schultz, Ph.D., are leading the development of a new database and dashboard available to the world’s scientists to better understand how ...

A new microfluidic method preserves worm anatomy to link lipid signals with body structure using mass spectrometry imaging. Understanding how fat molecules are distributed and function in living ...

Scientists have discovered that the internal shape of tiny drug-delivery particles—called lipid nanoparticles—has a big impact on how well our cells absorb them, paving the way to more efficient ...

Obesity and obesity-associated diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases, have reached pandemic levels worldwide and are major threats to human life. Lipid species within ...

Scientists identified phosphatidylcholine loss as a key driver of mitochondrial aging and showed that restoring it can ...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) continue to rank as the top killer in the modern world. This deadly disorder often starts with the buildup of lipid deposits or plaques within the blood vessel, silently ...
