Lipid nanoparticles, or LNPs, best known as the delivery vehicle for the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines received by billions of people, are now at the center of a much larger medical revolution. Researchers ...

Low testosterone and fructose intake increased liver fat in mice. Gut microbiota changes raised intestinal pyruvate levels, promoting lipid buildup in liver cells and suggesting a pathway driving ...

Scientists have found a way to significantly boost “blue energy,” which generates electricity from the mixing of saltwater and freshwater. By coating nanopores with lipid molecules that create a ...

Lysosomes were once viewed mainly as cellular waste disposers, but are now recognized as key hubs for nutrient sensing and ...

AI has designed candidate drugs for antibiotic-resistant infections and genetic diseases. But efforts to incorporate AI into the design of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), the revolutionary delivery ...

Integrating AI with advanced robotics to create self-driving labs (SDL) is a promising approach to tackling molecular ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto have developed LUMI-lab, an AI-enabled self-driving laboratory that has identified brominated lipid tails as a potent and previously unrecognised enhancer ...

Lipids are essential components of cellular membranes, contributing to the basic structure and function. The most common lipids in membranes are phospholipids, which form a bilayer with hydrophilic ...

A single-letter change in a protein that guards brain cells against a toxic form of death may help explain why Alzheimer’s ...
