Liquid-crystalline cubic-phase nanoparticles (CPNPs) (known as Cubosome particles), based on the lipid glycerol monooleate and stabilized by the nonionic block copolymer Pluronic F-127, interact with ...

Now, a team led by Neal K. Devaraj has developed an abiotic phospholipid metabolic network that can generate and maintain phospholipid membranes.

Polaritons are hybrid particles made up of a photon strongly coupled to an electric dipole. Examples of such a dipole include an electron–hole pair in a semiconductor, which forms an exciton ...

In circulation the phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) facilitates the transfer of phospholipid-rich surface components from postlipolytic chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) to HDL ...
