Cellular membranes are formed from a chemically diverse set of lipids present in various
amounts and proportions. A high lipid diversity is universal in eukaryotes and is seen from …

The cause of insulin resistance in obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is not limited
to impaired insulin signalling but also involves the complex interplay of multiple metabolic …

Alveoli, the lung's respiratory units, are tiny sacs where oxygen enters the bloodstream. They
are lined by flat alveolar type 1 (AT1) cells, which mediate gas exchange, and AT2 cells …

Biological membranes are tricky to investigate. They are complex in terms of molecular
composition and structure, functional over a wide range of time scales, and characterized by …

Tumor cellular metabolism exhibits distinguishing features that collectively enhance
biomass synthesis while maintaining redox balance and cellular homeostasis. These …

Sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) are a family of transcription factors that
regulate lipid biosynthesis and adipogenesis by controlling the expression of several …

Epidemiological studies established that elevated homocysteine, an important intermediate
in folate, vitamin B12, and one carbon metabolism, is associated with poor health, including …

Immunometabolism has emerged as a key focus for immunologists, with metabolic change
in immune cells becoming as important a determinant for specific immune effector …

Protein lipid modification involves the attachment of hydrophobic groups to proteins via
ester, thioester, amide, or thioether linkages. In this review, the specific click chemical …

Triglycerides, phospholipids, and cholesterol are prominent lipid types that serve diverse
biological functions. These lipids act as vital structural components of cell membranes …
