A set of new imaging tools now allows researchers to see how specific fat molecules, called phospholipids, are distributed ...

Lipids are fatty compounds that perform a range of essential functions in the body. Phospholipids, steroids, and triglycerides are examples of lipids. Although lipids play an essential role in the ...

A new imaging technique reveals lipids in cellular membranes and shows how they are organized at the nanoscale.

A team at Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has developed a new microscopy technique that can ...

Biological membranes of cells and their subunits (organelles) are organized into tiny regions (nanodomains) made up of fats ...

A new imaging approach is shedding light on one of cell biology’s most elusive questions: how lipids are organized and sorted within membranes.

DNA and proteins have had their day, but lipids are now the molecules du jour. Research into these cellular fats and oils got a big boost last week when the National Institute of General Medical ...

International research team presents new imaging technique to make lipids in cellular membranes visible and show how they are organized at the nanoscale. To the point: 3D visualization of lipids with ...

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 ...

The most common side effects of mRNA vaccines like the COVID-19 shot are well known: soreness, mild fever, and general ...
