The trans fatty acids (TFAs) in food are mainly generated from the ruminant animals (meat
and milk) and processed oil or oil products. Excessive intake of TFAs (> 1% of total energy …

Thiyl radicals have been used by nature in a broad range of biochemical processes. For
instance, thiol residues play an important role in many enzymatic processes as illustrated by …

The oxidation of lipids has long been a topic of interest in biological and food sciences, and
the fundamental principles of non-enzymatic free radical attack on phospholipids are well …

Lipid research in the life sciences has renewed its attractiveness in the last two decades or
so, going from chemical, analytical, and biological subjects, to making important connections …

Monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) are emerging health biomarkers, and in particular the
ratio between palmitoleic acid (9 cis-16: 1) and palmitic acid (16: 0) affords the delta-9 …

Thiyl radicals are exceptionally interesting reactive sulfur species (RSS), but rather rarely
considered in a biological or medical context. We here review the reactivity of protein thiyl …

Lipids are molecules with different structures which have the feature of water insolubility in
common. They have very important biological roles within structural, functional and signaling …

Lipidomics is an important aspect of personalized medicine in relation to nutrition and
metabolism. This approach has become important due to the substantial presence of …

Cis lipids can be converted by thiols and free radicals into trans lipids, which are therefore a
valuable tell-tale for free radical activity in the cell's lipidome. Our previous studies have …

Hexadecenoic fatty acids are monounsaturated lipid components, which are interesting
targets of plasma lipidomic studies and biomarker development. The main positional …
