Lipids in cell membranes regulate the activity of a cancer-linked protein, cell biologists at RIKEN have discovered. This ...

Researchers have identified that an enzyme involved in lipid metabolism speeds up the immune system changes associated with ...

how they store lipids to buffer fluctuation in their availability, and how these processes function in membrane biology and cell physiology, and how dysfunction of these pathways leads to diseases, ...

Man-made membranes are synthetic membranes, i.e., lipid membranes that can be prepared in the lab and studied with a variety of techniques. They are often called "model membranes" and are simpler ...

Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles in cells that act as recycling centers—breaking down waste materials, damaged ...

Melanoma is the most aggressive form of skin cancer. Although less common, it is the most serious due to its high potential ...

Lipid metabolism has emerged as a central player in the progression and therapy resistance of breast cancer, particularly the aggressive subtype known as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).

New research finds reduced ELOVL2 enzyme activity speeds up immune cell aging and disrupts genes linked to cancer.
