Marine Polar Lipids with Antithrombotic Activities

In our team, we have a strong interest on lipids that can inhibit platelet aggregation.
Few years ago, we had found these structures in sea bass.




Two days ago, we published our first salmon paper where the lipid structures have some striking similarities...


There is a theme there...
Nature is making polar lipids for a reason...
The more structural data we have on this theme make the "omega 3" and cholesterol approach weaker and weaker...
The polar head looks like an indispensable part of our approach linking polarity of lipids to their antithrombotic activities .

lipids and fish sperm

did you know that...
sea bass sperm freezability is influenced by motility variables and membrane lipid composition but not by membrane integrity and lipid peroxidation

great paper ...It gave me an idea for my next aquaculturist column.

Hooray for Dr Eleni




This morning, the viva of Eleni Sioriki took place, via video-conference between UL and Universities of Athens and Aegean in Greece.
All went well and we got one more Dr in our team!
Well done Eleni!
