Studying how our bodies metabolize lipids such as fatty acids, triglycerides, and cholesterol can teach us about cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other health problems, as well as reveal basic ...

Medical biochemistry plays a crucial role in understanding the function and metabolism of lipids, which are essential biomolecules involved in various physiological processes, including energy storage ...

Biochemistry is the study of the chemicals and chemistry of living organisms. Biochemists study biomolecules (such as proteins, RNA, DNA, sugars, and lipids), their applications and interactions in ...

This advanced course in the nutritional biochemistr and physiology of lipids will detail the role of lipids in the normal and pathological processes at both the cellular and whole organism level.

Many medications and other therapeutic agents, including antibiotics and cancer therapies, must enter cells to reach their ...

Skoltech researchers have investigated the way the composition of small molecules called lipids and metabolites varies in the ...

For centuries arsenic has been synonymous with poison and peril. However, it is also ubiquitous in the Earth’s crust, and runoff from natural deposits and industrial processes has spread it throughout ...
