Lipid peroxidation modifies the assembly of biological membranes "The lipid Whisker Model"
(Frontiers Media, 2015-01)
The aim of this opinion article is to point out the basic principles that modify the assembly of biological membranes during lipid peroxidation. With this objective in mind I describe: the structural and functional ...
Nuclear lipid droplets: a novel nuclear domain
(Elsevier Science, 2013-02)
We investigated nuclear neutral-lipid (NL) composition and organization, as NL may represent an alternative source for providing fatty acids and cholesterol (C) to membranes, signaling paths, and transcription factors in ...
Lipid-packing perturbation of model membranes by pH-responsive antimicrobial peptides
(2017-10-01)
The indiscriminate use of conventional antibiotics is leading to an increase in the number of resistant bacterial strains, motivating the search for new compounds to overcome this challenging problem. Antimicrobial peptides, ...
Lipid Droplets: Structure, Composition, Formation and Function. Connection with the Endoplasmic Reticulum
(Nova Science Publishers, 2019)
Fatty acids (FAs) are important compounds either used for energy production through β-oxidation, for membrane lipid synthesis, or for production of lipid mediators (oxylipins) through oxidations. FAs are also cytotoxic and ...
Lipid peroxidation modifies the picture of membranes from the “Fluid Mosaic Model” to the “Lipid Whisker Model”
(Elsevier Masson, 2012-01)
The “Fluid Mosaic Model”, described by Singer and Nicolson, explain both how a cell membrane preserves a critical barrier function while it concomitantly facilitates rapid lateral diffusion of proteins and lipids within ...
Lipids at the crossroad of α-synuclein function and dysfunction: Biological and pathological implications
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019-05-01)
Since its discovery, the study of the biological role ofα-synuclein and its pathologicalimplications has been the subject of increasing interest. The propensity to adoptdifferent conformational states governing its aggregation ...
Tocopherol in the lipid stability of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) hamburgers
(2007-07-20)
Presence of tocopherol is effective for fish preservation during frozen storage, inhibiting lipid degradation by oxidation. This work evaluated the antioxidant effects of α-tocopherol in diet and postmortem addition on the ...

Inclusion of the Helper Lipid Dioleoyl-Phosphatidylethanolamine in Solid Lipid Nanoparticles Inhibits Their Transfection Efficiency
(Amer Scientific PublishersValenciaEUA, 2014)
Changes in lipid composition in hippocampus early and late after status epilepticus induced by kainic acid in wistar rats
(Springer, 2007-03-01)
Oxidative damage to biological membranes has been reported as a cause of alterations in many different diseases. We had previously reported lipid peroxidation in the kainic acid model of temporal epilepsy. In this study ...
