1671-The Lipidomic Architecture of the Mouse Brain
Researchers have developed a comprehensive 3D lipidomic atlas of the mouse brain, mapping the spatial distribution of membrane lipids at a micrometric scale using mass spectrometry imaging. This extensive mapping revealed that lipids organize into fine-grained biochemical territories termed ‘lipizones’, which closely align with functional anatomy, cell-type distributions, and structural connectivity. Furthermore, the study demonstrated that this lipid architecture dynamically adapts to physiological changes, such as the metabolic shifts observed during pregnancy. By integrating lipid data…
