Yamaguchi R, Akter S, Kanehama A, Iwamoto T, Hasegawa M, Ito A, et al.
Lett Appl Microbiol . 2023 Apr; 76(4). PMID: 37073086
Plasmalogens are a subclass of glycerophospholipids that have a vinyl-ether bond at the sn-1 position and are thought to have several physiological functions. The creation of non-natural plasmalogens with functional...

Lipids Health Dis . 2021 Mar; 20(1):24. PMID: 33648494
Background: Dietary sphingolipids have various biofunctions, including skin barrier improvement and anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinoma properties. Long-chain bases (LCBs), the essential backbones of sphingolipids, are expected to be important for these...
