A bacterium makes a molecule that kills drug-resistant fungi in an unusual way — by targeting various phospholipid molecules ...

What we've discovered is that many prescription medications, while designed for entirely different purposes, can inadvertently interfere with the brain's ability to produce and process sterols ...

Nystatin acts by binding to sterols in the cell membrane of susceptible species resulting in a change in membrane permeability and the subsequent leakage of intracellular components. Do not use ...

But this process only happens in certain microdomains that are rich in sterols and oleosins along the membrane. The Brookhaven team hypothesizes that sterol is essential to the formation of these ...
