Lipid species affect morphology of endoplasmic reticulum: a sea urchin oocyte model of reversible manipulation (2019)
Journal Article
Ulloa, G., Hamati, F., Dick, A., Fitzgerald, J., Mantell, J., Verkade, P., Collinson, L., Arkill, K., Larijani, B., & Poccia, D. (2019). Lipid species affect morphology of endoplasmic reticulum: a sea urchin oocyte model of reversible manipulation. Journal of Lipid Research, 60(11), 1880-1891. https://doi.org/10.1194/jlr.ra119000210

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a large multifunctional organelle of eukaryotic cells. Malfunction of the ER in various disease states, such as atherosclerosis, Type 2 diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases and amyotrophic lateral s...

© 2019 Current materials used for in vitro 3D cell culture are often limited by their poor similarity to human tissue, batch-to-batch variability and complexity of composition and manufacture. Here, we present a “blank slate” culture environment base... Read More about Peptide gels of fully-defined composition and mechanics for probing cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions in vitro.
