Disruption of fatty acid storage triggers tumor cell death in preclinical models of high-risk medulloblastoma, offering a ...

Researchers found that the Parkinson’s risk variant rs1450522 in SPTSSB increases sphingolipid levels and alters fatty acids ...

Researchers from Baylor College of Medicine have linked Parkinson's disease to disrupted lipid metabolism. The study focused on the gene variant rs1450522, associated with elevated levels of protein ...

Researchers uncovered a genetic variant that disrupts lipid metabolism, creating a causal chain that increases Parkinsons ...

A team led by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and the Duncan Neurological Research Institute (Duncan NRI) at Texas ...

Parkinson's disease is a complex neurodegenerative disorder. The causes are still unclear, but about 10 to 15% of cases are ...

Lipid A, the endotoxic component of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), is fundamental to the architecture and function of Gram-negative bacterial outer membranes. It not only anchors LPS to the cell surface ...

Lipids and membranes Starting from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) differentiated into human Schwann cells and using advanced imaging techniques and molecular analyses, the researchers were ...

Pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β) are produced in large quantities locally in the joints and subsequently enter the bloodstream. TNF-α and IL-6 may promote LDL metabolism by ...

Mutations in the lipid transporter ABCA7 are known to elevate the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, but how they do so has been murky. Now, scientists led by Li-Huei Tsai at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts ...
