DHA Signaling
Description:
The cell membranes do not simply serve as barriers to separate the inside of the cell from the outside or to delineate different intracellular compartments. These membranes also serve as a platform for cell signaling by allowing specific sets of proteins to interact. Phospholipids are major structural constituents of the cell membranes. In the cell membranes of neurons, the two most prevalent Phospholipids include PC (Phosphatidylcholine) and PS (Phosphatidylserine). When cell membranes are stimulated by cell signaling activi...
