A new lipid-structured model to investigate the opposing effects of LDL and HDL on atherosclerotic plaque macrophages [PDF]
Atherosclerotic plaques form in artery walls due to a chronic inflammatory response driven by lipid accumulation. A key component of the inflammatory response is the interaction between monocyte-derived macrophages and extracellular lipid. Although concentrations of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles in the blood

Effects of oils and solid fats on blood lipids: a systematic review and network meta-analysis[S]
The aim of this network meta-analysis (NMA) is to compare the effects of different oils/solid fats on blood lipids. Literature searches were performed until March 2018.

Hydrodynamics of Multicomponent Vesicles Under Strong Confinement [PDF]
We numerically investigate the hydrodynamics and membrane dynamics of multicomponent vesicles in two strongly confined geometries. This serves as a simplified model for red blood cells undergoing large deformations while traversing narrow constrictions.

Topological Bounds of Bending Energy for Lipid Vesicles [PDF]
The Helfrich bending energy plays an important role in providing a mechanism for the conformation of a lipid vesicle in theoretical biophysics, which is governed by the principle of energy minimization over configurations of appropriate topological characteristics.

A Mendelian randomization study of the effects of blood lipids on breast cancer risk
Observational studies have reported inconsistent associations between circulating lipids and breast cancer risk. Using results from >400,000 participants in two-sample Mendelian randomization, we show that genetically raised LDL-cholesterol is associated
