BACKGROUND: Lipidomics, the comprehensive measurement of lipids within a biological system or substrate, is an emerging field with significant potential for improving clinical diagnosis and our understanding of health and disease. While lipids diverse biological roles contribute ...
Scope: The Caco2/HT29-MTX co-culture system is widely used as a cell model of the intestinal epithelium. Although the gut epithelium plays an important role in the uptake of free fatty acids and the resynthesis of triglycerides, the lipid distribution profile of the two-dimensional co-culture sys...
Lipids, fundamental constituents of cell membranes, cellular energy carriers, and signaling molecules, play a pivotal role in the interaction between pathogens and hosts. During microbial infections, lipids not only fuel the activation of the immune system but also, acting as signaling molec...
A targeted metabolomics approach reveals distinct metabolic patterns associated with different GOLD stages, KNGF profiles and SYS subtypes in COPD patients, highlighting unique mechanisms and pathways underlying various COPD classification systems.
Overcoming resistance to chemotherapies remains a major unmet need for cancers such as triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Therefore, mechanistic studies to provide insight for drug development are urgently needed to overcome TNBC therapy resistance. Recently, an important role of fatty acid β-...
Tapping into the metabolic cross-talk between a host and its virus can reveal unique strategies employed during infection. Viral infection is a dynamic process that generates an evolving metabolic landscape. Gaining a continuous view into the infection process is highly challenging and is limited...
Background: Plasma oxidized lipids are intimately linked to immune regulation as bioactive mediators. However, it is not clear whether they are related to the progression of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) and the effect of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRR...
