Structural and functional stability of the sulfur-free surfactant protein B peptide mimic B-YL in synthetic surfactant lipids [PDF]

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background Optimal functionality of synthetic lung surfactant for treatment of respiratory distress syndrome in preterm infants largely depends on the quality and quantity of the surfactant protein B (SP-B) peptide mimic and the lipid mixture.

Synthesis of ether lipids: natural compounds and analogues

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2023
Ether lipids are compounds present in many living organisms including humans that feature an ether bond linkage at the sn-1 position of the glycerol. This class of lipids features singular structural roles and biological functions. Alkyl ether lipids and

Biochemical Changes in Fatty Acids, Hydrocarbons and Sterols as well as Total Lipids of Albino Rats Ingested some Synthetic Colourants and Flavourants as Food Additives

Notulae Scientia Biologicae, 2017
The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of ingested synthetic food colourants or flavourants on total lipids content feces. The feces of rats ingested synthetic food colourants or flavourants has more lipids than that of control feces.

Lipid sponge droplets as programmable synthetic organelles [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Significance Organelles spatially and temporally orchestrate biochemical reactions in a cell to a degree of precision that is still unattainable in synthetic reaction systems. Additionally, organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contain highly interconnected and dense membrane networks that provide large reaction spaces for
