Lipid membranes envelope live cells and mediate vital biological functions through regulated spatiotemporal dynamics. This review highlights the role of neutron scattering, among other approaches, in uncovering dynamic properties lipid membranes.

background: dyslipidemia is considered an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease (chd). in the present study, we examined lipid profiles and paraoxonase 1 (pon1) activity and atherogenic indexes status and the relationship of pon1 activity by high-density lipoprotein (hdl) and atherogenic indexes in chd patients and healthy people. methods: the aim of the study was to compare pon1, ...

metabolic diseases in china have been on the rise in recent decades, partially due to reduced cereal consumption and excessive intake of low glycemic index (gi) foods such as meat and oil. although the relationship between dietary glycemic load (gl) and various metabolic diseases has been extensively studied worldwide, it is unclear whether dietary gl is related to blood lipid levels and dyslip...

background: coronary heart disease is one of the most important problems of public health. one risk factor is dyslipidemia. evidence from molecular and animal research and epidemiologic investigations indicate that calcium intake may influence lipid metabolism.but intervention studies have produced conflicting results.objective of this study was to determine the effects of calcium supplementati...

objective(s): in the current study, sunscreen and moisturizing properties of solid lipid nanoparticle (sln)-safranal formulations were evaluated. materials and methods:series of sln were prepared using glyceryl monostearate, tween 80 and different amounts of safranal by high shear homogenization, and ultrasound and high-pressure homogenization (hph) methods. sln formulations were characterized ...

objective(s): the aim of the present study was to prepare, characterize, and evaluate solid lipid nanoparticles (slns) containing zataria multiflora essential oil (zeo). materials and methods: in this study, z. multiflora essential oil-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (ze-slns) were prepared to improve its efficiency in controlling some fungal pathogens. slns containing z. multiflora essential ...
