Lipid Metabolism
- Molecular classification
- Metabolic Pathway
01
Overview
Lipid metabolism is the complex set of biochemical processes involved in the synthesis, breakdown, absorption, transport, and storage of lipids within living organisms. These processes are essential for energy production, cellular structure maintenance, signaling functions, and overall metabolic homeostasis. Dysregulation can lead to various metabolic disorders.
