KU Leuven Center for Cancer Biology, in collaboration with the Francis Crick Institute, has discovered how cancer cells can exploit healthy lung cells to support metastatic tumor growth in the lungs.

Faulty lipid regulation in CLL patients impairs T-cell function, affecting treatment outcomes and resistance to current therapies. Differences in lipid metabolism between CLL patients and healthy ...

BUFFALO, NY-May 24, 2023 – A new research paper was published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 9, entitled, “Exogenous ...

Lipid metabolism has emerged as a central player in the progression and therapy resistance of breast cancer, particularly the aggressive subtype known as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This ...

Researchers have discovered a molecular pathway that allows cells to sense when their lipid supplies become depleted, prompting a flurry of activity that prevents starvation. The findings might ...

Tyrosinase (Tyr) catalyzes hydroquinone (HQ) oxidation via two main pathways. The HBQ pathway directly oxidizes HQ to 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone (HBQ), which dimerizes and forms hydroquinone-eumelanin ...

Lipid nanoparticles consist of spherical vesicles made of ionizable lipids with a positive charge at a low pH level, while being neutral at a physiological pH. Such a characteristic enables RNA ...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the portion of the cell responsible for manufacturing and folding proteins. Proteins are essential for a wide range of cellular functions-as enzymes, transporters, ...
