Membrane-forming phospholipids are generated in cells by enzymatic diacylation of non-amphiphilic polar head groups. Analogous non-enzymatic processes may have been relevant at the origin of life and could have practical utility in membrane synthesis. However, aqueous head group diacylation is challenging in the absence of enzymes.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of metabolic abnormalities, including visceral obesity, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance. In this regard, visceral white adipose tissue (vWAT) plays a critical role, influencing energy metabolism, immunomodulation, and oxidative stress. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are key players in these processes within vWAT.

Biogenesis of membrane-bound organelles involves the synthesis, remodeling, and degradation of their constituent phospholipids. How these pathways regulate organelle size remains poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that a lipid-degradation pathway inhibits expansion of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a bile duct malignancy. Our previous comprehensive analysis showed that ferroptosis-related genes can stratify CCA patients into low-risk and high-risk groups based on survival time. Here, we explored the role of ferroptosis in CCA by analyzing mRNA expression in CCA patients from public databases.

Accumulating evidence suggests that LDs not only store neutral lipids but also coordinate with other organelles for lipid metabolism within cells.
Methods: This review focuses on the synthesis of LDs during follicular development and highlights the factors involved in the regulation of LD biogenesis within the ovary.
