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 octane on the fatty acid composition and transition temperature of Pseudomonas oleovorans membrane lipids during growth in two-liquid-phase continuous cultures [PDF]
Growth of Pseudomonas oleovorans GPol in continuous culture containing a bulk n-octane phase resulted in changes of the fatty acid composition of the membrane lipids.

Eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA, 20:4, ω-3) is the desaturation product of dihomo-gamma linolenic acid (DGLA, 20:3, ω-6) catalyzed by delta-17 desaturase, which is considered as a healthy product that helps to lower risk of heart diseases.

Distribution of lipids in non-lamellar phases of their mixtures [PDF]
We consider a model of lipids in which a head group, characterized by its volume, is attached to two flexible tails of equal length. The phase diagram of the anhydrous lipid is obtained within self-consistent field theory, and displays, as a function of lipid architecture, a progression of phases: body-centered cubic, hexagonal, gyroid, and lamellar ...

Dynamics of Vesicle Formation from Lipid Droplet: Mechanism and Controllability [PDF]
A coarse-grained model developed by Marrink et al. [J. Phys. Chem. B 111, 7812 (2007)] is applied to investigate vesiculation of lipid [dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC)] droplets in water. Three kinds of morphologies of micelles are found with increasing lipid droplet size.

A novel technique of contrast-enhanced optical coherence tomography imaging in evaluation of clearance of lipids in human tears [PDF]
Purpose: The aim of this work was to gather preliminary data in different conditions of healthy eyes, aqueous tear deficient dry eyes, obstructive meibomian gland disease (MGD) and non-obvious obstructive MGD (NOMGD) individuals, using a new, contrast ...

From chapter introduction: Students entering the field of fish nutrition might be forgiven for forming two impressions. First, is the impression that because publications on lipids often dominate research journals and conference proceedings on fish nutrition, lipids are the most important nutrients for fish. They are not.
