Importance Of Lipidomics

Importance of lipidomics:

In recent decades the disciplines related to health and nutrition, thanks to molecular techniques, have made giant leaps forward. Lipidomics is one of them; it is one of the “-omics” disciplines (for example proteomics, genomics) that deal dynamically with the molecules that exist in living organisms.

Lipidomics studies molecules called “lipids”, which contain “fatty acids”, simply called “fats”. These elements are the fundamental constituents of the cell membrane, the envelope that wraps all the cells of our body, and are specific in quantity and quality for each tissue. Cells do not exist without the cell membrane but without fats the cell membrane does not exist. With this premise it is essential to know which and how many fats make up the membranes of our cells, in order to achieve and / or maintain their balance, a necessary condition to allow the efficient functioning of the whole organism
