Researchers headed by a team at the École Polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) School of Life Sciences have made the first connection between muscular dystrophy (MD) and sphingolipids, a group of ...

In a new study, the group of Johan Auwerx at EPFL's School of Life Sciences has made the first connection between muscular dystrophy and sphingolipids, a group of bioactive lipids. The study is ...

Certain lipids discovered in the 1800s presented chemists with structural and functional puzzles that proved unsolvable. And so, the chemists called these lipids sphingolipids, likening them to the ...

Scientists have made a link between muscular dystrophy and a group of bioactive fats, the sphingolipids, which are involved in numerous cell functions and other diseases. In a new study, the group of ...
