Lipid oxidation is a fundamental chemical process affecting both food quality and human health. This phenomenon, which involves the degradation of unsaturated fatty acids through radical chain ...

Overweight and obesity pose significant health risks, including an increased likelihood of developing diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Researchers are seeking practical ways to promote ...

EPFL scientists have identified a molecular pathway that protects cells from lipid oxidation and ferroptosis, a regulated form of cell death involved in aging and several diseases. Subscribe to our ...

In a recent review published in Advances in Food and Nutrition Research, researchers assessed the function of lipids in metabolic diseases. Lipids play an essential role in the proper functioning of ...

Recent studies suggest that when neurons are overwhelmed by oxidative stress, they spew out toxic, peroxidated lipids. Glia then sail in to mop up the spill, containing the oils within intracellular ...
