Description
The importance of lipids as one of the fundamental classes of biological compounds is well established. The
application of our knowledge of the biochemistry, chemistry and physiology of lipids to biotechnology, the fats and oils industry and
medicine have continued to expand apace. In addition new dimensions such as lipid biophysics, especially with relevance to membranes
and lipoproteins, and basic liposome research and applications have been added. To cope with all these advances in knowledge a journal
is needed to review recent progress in particular fields and to set current research against its historical background. Progress
in Lipid Research fulfils this role.
Each volume contains up-to-date surveys of special aspects of lipid research. The reviews
are comprehensive enough to provide sufficient overview but concentrate on reporting and critically appraising the most recent data.
Subjects are chosen for their timeliness or because major developments have taken place in the last few years. They include methodological
reviews as well as chemical, biochemical and medical articles. All lipid compounds and derivatives are covered, ranging from fatty acids
and other simple molecules, through steroids, terpenoids and phospho- or glycolipids to complex structures such as lipoproteins and biological
membranes. We hope that those whose main interest is in lipid biophysics and liposome research will join as new readers, benefiting
from the journal's classical aspects of lipid metabolism, lipids in signal transduction and lipid enzymology, and that current readers
will benefit from the exposure to top quality research on the new aspects.
