投稿须知/期刊简介:

Published by BioMed Central. ISSN: 1476-511X.<br><br>Lipids in Health and Disease is an Open Access, peer-reviewed, online journal that publishes articles on all aspects of lipids: their biochemistry, pharmacology, toxicology, role in health and disease, and the synthesis of new lipid compounds. Lipids in Health and Disease is aimed at all scientists, health professionals and physicians interested in the area of lipids. Lipids are defined here in their broadest sense, to include: cholesterol, essential fatty acids, saturated fatty acids, phospholipids, inositol lipids, second messenger lipids, enzymes and synthetic machinery that is involved in the metabolism of various lipids in the cells and tissues, and also various aspects of lipid transport, etc. In addition, the journal also publishes research that investigates and defines the role of lipids in various physiological processes, pathology and disease. In particular, the journal aims to bridge the gap between the bench and the clinic by publishing articles that are particularly relevant to human diseases and the role of lipids in the management of various diseases. The emerging field of Lipids is expected to have a significant impact in the future of health care. Lipids form an important constituent of all cell membranes, and cellular constituents, and as such they have a profound influence on the interaction of the cell with its immediate environment and the way the messages are received and processed by cells in the body. By regulating cell membrane structure and function, lipids are known to influence the actions of various hormones, peptides and drugs. At present, there is no single forum that publishes all the aspects of research on lipids. Lipids in Health and Disease tries to fill this vacuum. Further, by emphasizing the clinical relevance of the work on Lipids, the journal aims to bridge the gap between the lab and the clinic.
