In response to the growing number of lipids expected to be discovered through lipidomics and in anticipation of the massive amounts of data that will be generated by the lipid community, an ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Metabolism, a team of researchers conducted detailed longitudinal profiling and analysis of the lipidome using plasma samples from over a hundred ...

In a recent study published in Cell Host & Microbe, researchers highlighted the role of lipids, especially bacteria-derived lipids in the gut microbiome, in mammalian physiology in the context of ...

As of May 2026, the metabolomics community is witnessing a convergence of open-source database innovation and proprietary software intelligence. LIPID MAPS recently published a landmark focus article ...

Scientists have found that 93% of the lipids in brain tissue are distributed differently in the white and gray matter, the subcortex, the visual and motor cortices, and the prefrontal cortex, which is ...

The relationship between lipid levels and the development of dementia is an evolving but confusing landscape. "This is an incredibly complex area, and there really isn't a clear consensus on this ...

LNPs consist of ionizable lipids, which are critical for encapsulating RNA and enabling cellular uptake. Helper lipids contribute to the structural integrity and fusion with cell membranes.
