How the Lysophospholipid Got its Receptor The discovery of a new family of lipid receptors provides potential targets for diseases such as multiple sclerosis and autoimmunity. By Jerold Chun Related Articles 1 By the late 1960s, researchers had become aware that this somewhat obscure class of lipids had the remarkable ability to act like an extracellular signaling molecule.2 Two prominent forms typify but do not limit lysophospholipids: lysophosphatidic acid

Micronutrients and Infection
Steve Bunk | Apr 16, 2000 | 6 min read
Courtesy Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Just how important are vitamins and minerals in influencing resistance to infectious diseases? Some of the best current answers to that question will be offered in a supplement to the Journal of Infectious Diseases appearing later this year. The special publication, stemming from a 1999 workshop organized by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, attests that the field is rife with research activity nowadays. Micronutrients such
