Lipid droplets at a glance [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 2009 Lipid droplets (LDs) are the major cellular organelles for the storage of neutral lipids. Excessive lipid storage in LDs is central to the pathogenesis of prevalent metabolic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes and atherosclerosis; LDs are, therefore, crucial in the development of these diseases.

Lipopolysaccharide, lipid A, and liposomes containing lipid A as immunologic adjuvants
Immunobiology, 1993 Numerous studies have demonstrated that most or all of the potent adjuvant activity of Gram-negative bacterial endotoxin resides in the lipid A moiety of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Synthetic analogues of lipid A have provided insights into structure-activity relationships.

The effect of polar lipids on tear film dynamics [PDF]
, 2009 In this paper we present a mathematical model describing the effect of polar lipids on the evolution of a precorneal tear film, with the aim of explaining the interesting experimentally observed phenomenon that the tear film continues to move upwards ...

Physico-chemical requirements and kinetics of membrane fusion of flavivirus-like particles. [PDF]
, 2015 Flaviviruses deliver their RNA genome into the host-cell cytoplasm by fusing their lipid envelope with a cellular membrane. Expression of the flavivirus pre-membrane and envelope glycoprotein genes in the absence of other viral genes results in the ...
