    Lipids are the main components of cell membranes and are mainly synthesized by enzymes in the endoplasmic reticulum
    .



    1

    The main components and functions of brain lipids

    Due to the barrier action of the blood-brain barrier, most sterols in the central nervous system are synthesized in situ
    .

    2

    Cerebral lipid disorders and neurodegenerative diseases

    Brain lipid metabolism is involved in Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing, β-amyloid protein (Ab) production, and Ab aggregation
    .


    summary

    Mass spectrometry, immunofluorescence experiments, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and other techniques are the main research techniques
    for the analysis of lipid components.

    In recent years, emerging lipiomics technologies have brought the functional research of lipid compounds into a new world
    .

    In the future, it may be applied to basic medicine and clinical medicine by integrating multiple omics technologies such as lipoomics, metabolomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics
    .
