which are the major lipid component of all cell membranes as they can form bilayers. The 'head' of a phospholipid is hydrophilic (attracted to water), while the hydrophobic 'tails' repel water. The hydrophillic head contains the negatively charged...
Steroid Hormones Pregnenolone Vitamin D Metabolism in skin: • 7-dehydrocholesterol absorbs ultraviolet B (~300 nm) • previtamin D3 isomerizes to cholecaliferol (vitamin D3) in liver: • vitamin D3 → 1-hydroxyvitamin D3 [1-(OH)D3] in kidney: • 1-(OH)D3 → 1,25-dihydro...

Fatty acid desaturation is central to metazoan lipid metabolism. Here, usingC. elegansas a model, the authors show that both endogenous and microbiota-dependent small molecule signals converge to promote lipid desaturation via the nuclear receptor NHR-49/PPARα. ...

Measuring the lipid composition of breastmilk is important for relating individual differences in HM with health outcomes, including infant growth, metabolism, and neurodevelopment. With this long-term goal in mind, our first objective was to validate a fast 2-phase MTBE/MeOH LLE method to ...
