Lipid rafts and neurodegeneration: structural and functional roles in physiologic aging and neurodegenerative diseases

Lipid rafts are small, dynamic membrane areas characterized by the clustering of selected membrane lipids as the result of the spontaneous separation of glycolipids, sphingolipids, and cholesterol in a liquid-ordered phase. The exact dynamics underlying phase separation of membrane lipids in the com...
