Influence of lipid rafts on pattern formation during T-cell adhesion
Adhesion of T cells to antigen presenting cells is mediated by the TCR–MHCp and LFA1–ICAM1 protein complexes. These intercellular protein complexes segregate and form characteristic special patterns in the cell contact zone.

Lipid Pattern in Experimental Canine Atherosclerosis [PDF]
An experiment was conducted to compare the effects of feeding cholesterol alone, thiouracil alone, and cholesterol and thiouracil combined, on the serum lipids and arteries of dogs. These substances were added to a basal diet rich in linoleic acid. Serum cholesterol and total serum lipids were determined periodically during the four-month period of ...

Quantitative lipidomic analysis of mouse lung during postnatal development by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. [PDF]
Lipids play very important roles in lung biology, mainly reducing the alveolar surface tension at the air-liquid interface thereby preventing end-expiratory collapse of the alveoli.

Protein patterns at lipid bilayer junctions [PDF]
We introduce a simple intermembrane junction system in which to explore pattern and structure formation by membrane-bound proteins. The junction consists of a planar lipid bilayer to which one species of protein (an IgG antibody) is bound, forming a 2D, compressible fluid.

Localization of FGF21 Protein and Lipid Metabolism-Related Genes in Camels
With the ability to survive under drought and chronic hunger, camels display a unique regulation characteristic of lipid metabolism. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 21 is a peptide hormone that regulates metabolic pathways, especially lipid metabolism ...

A Snack Dietary Pattern Increases the Risk of Hypercholesterolemia in Northern Chinese Adults: A Prospective Cohort Study. [PDF]
The evidence about the effect of dietary patterns on blood cholesterol from cohort studies was very scarce. The study was to identify the association of dietary patterns with lipid profile, especially cholesterol, in a cohort in north China.
