The interest in the analysis of lipids and phospholipids is continuously increasing due to the
importance of these molecules in biochemistry (eg in the context of biomembranes and lipid …

OBJECTIVES:: Lipid second messengers, eg lysophosphatidylcholines (LPC) are involved
in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, for instance, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) …

The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis represents the most widely distributed
mutualistic root symbiosis. We report that root extracts of mycorrhizal plants contain a …

Lipids are of high interest on different levels. First, lipids as triacylglycerols (TAG)(particularly
