Just as a chef perfects a dish by experimenting with flavors and textures, the researchers used an iterative process, testing variations to find the ideal structure for the ionizable lipid. This lipid ...

A by-product of rice bran oil production has long been recognized as a source of beneficial lipids for skin health and ...

Scientists have discovered that the internal shape of tiny drug-delivery particles—called lipid nanoparticles—has a big impact on how well our cells absorb them, paving the way to more efficient ...

Scientists have developed a method for analysing the structure of lipid nanoparticles that could be used to improve vaccine and drug delivery, targeting a wide range of health issues. A team led by ...

Scientists from the University of Pennsylvania have developed an ideal “recipe” for ionizable lipids, which are essential components of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), the molecules that underlie the ...

A multidisciplinary team has uncovered a key mechanism that allows the human bacterium Mycoplasma pneumoniae—responsible for ...

The body has to clear away dead cells and other unnecessary or unneeded stuff, and one mechanism that is crucial to the degradation of such materials is called LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP). This ...

Researchers have identified three previously unknown lipid molecules in rice bran, one of which strengthens the skin's ...

Fluorophores are chemical compounds or molecules that absorb light energy at one wavelength and re-emit it as light at a ...

A by-product of rice bran oil production has long been recognized as a source of beneficial lipids for skin health and nutrition. Now, researchers ...
