Researchers have identified a lipid-driven biophysical mechanism that allows tuberculosis-causing mycobacteria to survive inside human immune cells, a discovery that could inform novel ...
In the inflamed joints of rheumatoid arthritis, CD4+ T lymphocytes accumulate lipid droplets that make them vulnerable and promote their death, thereby amplifying joint inflammation. A study led by ...
Lipid droplets accumulate in microglia in mouse and cell models of amyloidosis but scientists are not sure why. Evidence suggests that Aβ helps create the glut, but now scientists led by Lingyan Shi ...
