We have carefully constructed these lipid pathways based on LIPID MAPS experimental data and data from the literature. LIPID MAPS experimental data obtained from our lipid time course experiments and microarray experiments on macrophagese were mapped to corresponding lipids and genes, respectively.
VANTED is a tool for the visualization and analysis of networks with related experimental data. For more information on VANTED, please refer to: Björn H. Junker, Christian Klukas and Falk Schreiber (2006): VANTED: A system for advanced data analysis and visualization in the context of biological networks.

Lipid-related pathways, or portions of pathways are displayed in tabular format with lipid structures and related information organized in columns. Another display format is an enzymatic reaction format where substrate and product are displayed in separate rows, with an intervening row showing the gene information for the enzyme catalyzing that step.
