CanCell scientists with two Review articles on lipids

Lipids play crucial roles in cell and cancer biology, and CanCell scientists have made important contributions in the field of lipid biology. In a recent issue of the prestigious review journal, Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology. Kirsten Sandvig, Alicia Llorente and Tore Skotland have contributed a review on lipids in extracellular vesicles, whereas Harald Stenmark (together with collaborators at Monash University, Australia) has written a review about a particularly important class of lipids, the phosphoinositides. Both reviews highlight the importance of lipids in cancer and other diseases, both as potential biomarkers and drug targets.
