  1. Lipid microdomain

    Context date May 2009 Lipid microdomains are formed when lipid s undergo lateral phase matter phase separations yielding stable coexisting lamellar Lipid bilayer domain s. These phase separation s can be induced by changes in temperature , pressure , ionic strength or by the addition of divalent cation s or protein s. The question of whether such lipid microdomains observed in model lipid systems also exist in biomembrane s had motivated considerable research efforts. Lipid domains are not readily isolated and examined as unique species, in contrast to the examples of lateral heterogeneity . One can disrupt the membrane and demonstrate a heterogeneous range of composition in the population of the resulting Vesicle biology vesicles or fragment s.

It is recommended that healthy adults with no other risk factors for heart disease be tested with a fasting lipid profile once every five years. citation needed date July 2011 Individuals may also be screened using only a cholesterol test and not a full lipid profile. However, if the cholesterol test result is high, there may be the need to have follow up testing with a lipid profile. citation needed date July 2011 If there are other risk factors or the individual has had a high cholesterol level in the past, regular testing is needed and the individual should have a full lipid profile. citation needed date July 2011 For children and adolescents at low risk, lipid testing is usually not ordered routinely. However, screening with a lipid profile is recommended for children and youths who are at an increased risk of developing heart disease as adults.

  1. Lipid peroxidation

    Image Lipid peroxidation.svg thumb 350px right Mechanism of lipid peroxidation. Lipid peroxidation refers to the redox oxidative degradation of lipid s. It is the process in which Radical chemistry free radicals steal electrons from the lipids in cell membranes , resulting in cell damage. This process proceeds by a free radical Chemical reaction chain reaction mechanism. It most often affects polyunsaturated fatty acids , because they contain multiple double bonds in between which lie methylene CH2 groups that possess especially reactive hydrogen s. As with any radical reaction, the reaction consists of three major steps initiation, propagation, and termination. Initiation Initiation is the step in which a fatty acid radical chemistry radical is produced. The most notable initiators in living cells are reactive oxygen species ROS , such as hydroxyl radical OH and HO2 , which combines with a hydrogen atom to make water and a fatty acid radical.

  1. Lipid therapy

    Orphan date February 2009 Lipid therapy , fat therapy , or therapeutic lipovenous injections is a controversial medical technique that entails the injection and expulsion of fats and lipids, which proponents claim can improve cognitive and memory function. The technique recently gained notoriety, when it was revealed it had become a popular technique with French and Italian celebrities, and more recently a rumored handful of American celebrities. Description Patients who choose to undergo the controversial therapy are injected once a week for two months with a high density animal fat. Since most toxins in the body are fat soluble according to practitioners , this causes the patient to defecate a translucent slime, which is claimed to carry out the body s toxins, in turn boosting energy, increasing concentration, and improving memory. Many medical experts who oppose the technique have pointed out the slimy discharge how the body deals with any excess of intestinal and intravenous lipids, and it is a sign of high risk of artery damage and poor water absorption. Legal regulations sorting of any therapy as effective treatment for any condition is heavily restricted by law in many jurisdictions unless all such claims are scientifically validated. In the United States, for example, U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations prohibit marketing any lipid therapy using medical claims, as such claims are unfounded. Additionally, clinicians and doctors who perform the therapy have drawn scrutiny from the Department of Agriculture for questionable documentation on their acquisition of the animal fat. Efficacy Double blind Blinding of patients and assessors to the therapy is difficult since lipid therapy can be easily discerned by the painful pressure in the thoracic cavity engendered by the sudden dip in plasma viscosity.
