New Paper: “The Effects of Cholesterol Oxidation on Erythrocyte Plasma Membranes: A Monolayer Study”

Cholesterol plays a key role in the molecular and mesoscopic organisation of lipid membranes and it is expected that changes in its molecular structure (e.g., through environmental factors such as oxidative stress) may affect adversely membrane properties and function. In this study, we present evidence that oxidation of cholesterol has …
