Caption The content of lipid droplets (LD, yellow dots in the panels at left) determines a stem cell’s potential to repopulate an injured muscle. The cell with many lipid droplets (LDhigh) had ...

Fluorescent probes have emerged as powerful tools for studying lipid droplets in living cells. Recent advancements in probe design have focused on enhancing specificity and sensitivity for imaging ...

in particular the mechanisms and physiology of neutral lipid synthesis and storage in lipid droplets. More broadly the lab studies the mechanisms how cells regulate the abundance of lipids, how they ...

One of the strategies, discovered in 2015 by the Bellen team, consists of neurons exporting these toxic peroxidated lipids to ...

Cancer cells gobble up lipids. Prostate cells are stained with Oil-Red O to detect lipid droplets. Our work shows that redistribution of lipids from prostate cancer microenvironment triggers ...

The search for answers to Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders remains one of the most pressing goals in ...

"We proposed that, during evolution, the emergence of myelin coincided with the loss of lipid droplets in axon-associated ...

A study shares new insights into how two of the most common types of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells kill cancer. Investigators examined how molecular dynamics at the immune synapse -- where ...

Researchers believe the key to understanding neurodegenerative diseases may lie in understanding how cholesterol and other ...
