Hepatitis C virus relies on lipoproteins for its life cycle [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects over 150 million people worldwide. In most cases, HCV infection becomes chronic causing liver disease ranging from fibrosis to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Peroxisomal and mitochondrial enzymes involved in lipid metabolism : studies on function and regulation [PDF]
Fatty acids constitute a major part of the energy that we obtain from the diet and are also the principal source for mammals to store energy. To use the incoming or stored fatty acids as energy, the fatty acids needs to be metabolized of which the ...

Cholesterol homeostasis: a key to prevent or slow down neurodegeneration [PDF]
Neurodegeneration, a common feature for many brain disorders, has severe consequences on the mental and physical health of an individual. Typically human neurodegenerative diseases are devastating illnesses that predominantly affect elderly people ...

Cholesterol oxides inhibit cholesterol esterification by lecithin: cholesterol acyl transferase [PDF]
Cholesterol oxides are atherogenic and can affect the activity of diverse important enzymes for the lipidic metabolism. The effect of 7β-hydroxycholesterol, 7-ketocholesterol, 25-hydroxycholesterol, cholestan-3β,5α,6β-triol,5,6β ...

Lipid droplet-organelle interactions: emerging roles in lipid metabolism. [PDF]
Cellular homeostasis depends on the precisely coordinated use of lipids as fuels for energy production, building blocks for membrane biogenesis or chemical signals for intra-cellular and inter-cellular communication.

Selective Cholesterol Dynamics between Lipoproteins and Caveolae/Lipid Rafts [PDF]
Although low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-mediated cholesterol uptake through clathrin-coated pits is now well understood, the molecular details and organizing principles for selective cholesterol uptake/efflux (reverse cholesterol transport, RCT ...

Glycerolipid transfer for the building of membranes in plant cells. [PDF]
Membranes of plant organelles have specific glycerolipid compositions. Selective distribution of lipids at the levels of subcellular organelles, membrane leaflets and membrane domains reflects a complex and finely tuned lipid homeostasis.

Uric Acid in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease
MASLD is the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, yet effective pharmacological treatments remain limited. Hyperuricemia is now recognized as a key driver of hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, with elevated serum uric acid levels independently predicting hepatocellular carcinoma and liver‐related mortality.

Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) alleviate hepatic steatosis in obese mice by shifting energy buffering towards phosphocreatine and enhancing lysosomal lipid degradation and trafficking. These effects are associated with increased creatine kinase activity and lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA) levels, highlighting a previously unrecognised ...
