Lipid nanoparticles with ionizable lipids: Statistical aspects
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) with size ∼100 nm are now used for fabrication of a new generation of drugs and antiviral vaccines. To optimize their function or, more specifically, interaction with cell membranes, their composition often includes ionizable lipids which are neutral or cationic (after association with H^{+}).

Ionizable lipids in bio-inspired nanocarriers
AbstractIn applications of bio-inspired nanoparticles (NPs), their composition is often optimised by including ionizable lipids. I use a generic statistical model to describe the charge and potential distributions in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) containing such lipids.

Ionizable amino lipid interactions with POPC: implications for lipid nanoparticle function
The distribution of ionizable amino lipids (KC2) is critical in structure of lipid nanoparticles, siRNA entrapment and endosomal release. Neutral KC2 segregates from phospholipids (POPC) and forms an oily core in the bilayer interior.

Caloric restriction reveals a metabolomic and lipidomic signature in liver of male mice [PDF]
Lipid composition, particularly membrane unsaturation, has been proposed as being a lifespan determinant, but it is currently unknown whether caloric restriction (CR), an accepted life-extending intervention, affects cellular lipid profiles.
