Two types of lipid rafts have been proposed: planar lipid rafts (also referred to as non-caveolar, or glycolipid, rafts) and caveolae. Planar rafts are defined as being continuous with the plane of …

Aug 2, 2025 · Cells are enveloped by a dynamic outer boundary known as the cell membrane, which regulates the passage of substances and facilitates communication with the external …

Nov 14, 2025 · Lipid rafts are areas of the membrane that are more tightly packed and less disordered than the surrounding membrane. This localized organization allows the cell to …

Lipid rafts are specialized microdomains within the plasma membrane, enriched in cholesterol, sphingolipids, and certain proteins, that play a crucial role in cellular signaling and the …

Lipid rafts, specialised microdomains within cell membranes, play a central role in orchestrating various aspects of neurodevelopment, ranging from neural differentiation to the formation of …

Lipid rafts are liquid-ordered membrane domains enriched with sphingolipids and cholesterol. Since 1997 when Simons and Ikonen first proposed their hypothesis on functional rafts, the …
