LIPID SCIENCES ANNOUNCES VALIDATION OF PROPRIETARY PEPTIDE THAT MIMICS KEY FUNCTIONS OF NATURAL HUMAN HDL

Fourth Quarter 2007 Completion of HDL Selective Delipidation Clinical Trial Re-Affirmed

PLEASANTON, Calif., June 7, 2007 – Lipid Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq:LIPD)—At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders, President and Chief Executive Officer, Dr. S. Lewis Meyer, announced that the Company has developed a synthetic form of HDL that mimics key functions of naturally-occurring human HDL. The Company’s lead HDL Mimetic Peptide compound, LSI 518P, and a back-up compound have been identified and validated with an extensive battery of in vitro assays. The lead compound was selected as a result of screenings at multiple sites: The Baker Institute, Melbourne, Australia; the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia; and in Lipid Sciences’ own laboratory. In these tests, the selected mimetic peptide candidates effluxed cholesterol via the ABCA1 transporter metabolic pathway—known to be optimal for removing cholesterol from arterial plaque via the reverse cholesterol transport mechanism—at a rate similar to naturally-occurring HDL. Dr. Meyer noted that the Company’s “synthetic HDL” should not only enhance reverse cholesterol transport, but also mimic the other important biological functions of HDL—contribution to plaque regression and reduction the inflammation associated with atherosclerosis.

In comments offered at the end of the presentation, Dr. H. Bryan Brewer, Chief Scientific Director of Lipid Sciences and leader of its HDL Mimetic Peptide program, noted, “HDL Mimetic Peptides represent the next generation of HDL Therapy. The principal functional characteristics of the ideal HDL Mimetic Peptide are the specific and effective cholesterol efflux as well as anti-inflammation. Our initial assessment demonstrates that our lead candidate possesses both efflux and anti-inflammatory properties that are similar to naturally-occurring ApoA-I, making it a very strong mimetic peptide candidate.” Dr. Brewer continued, “Our in vitro studies are ongoing and we expect to begin animal studies shortly to further test our initial findings about the effectiveness of our synthetic peptide. We anticipate the results of the animal studies in October 2007.”

In his prepared remarks, Dr. Meyer also expressed his confidence in completing the Company’s HDL Selective Delipidation safety and feasibility clinical trial by the end of 2007. To date, 18 of a total of 30 patients have been enrolled and the procedures have been well-tolerated by all participants. In addition to the primary clinical trial site, the Washington Hospital Center, the Company is in the process of adding three clinical trial sites in the Washington, D.C. area to increase the pool of eligible participants.

Lipid Sciences, Inc. is a development-stage biotechnology company engaged in the research and development of products and processes intended to treat major medical indications, in which lipids, or fat components, play a key role. The Company’s HDL Therapy platform (HDL Selective Delipidation and HDL Mimetic Peptides) aims to develop treatments to reverse atherosclerosis, a systemic disease of the blood vessels caused by the build-up of cholesterol-filled plaques in the vascular system and, most critically, in the coronary arteries. Regression of such plaques may have a major impact on reducing the risk of acute coronary events. The Company’s Viral Immunotherapy platform focuses on the removal of the lipid coatings from lipid-enveloped viruses and other lipid-containing infectious agents by applying Lipid Sciences’ proprietary delipidation technologies. The Company believes that removing the virus’ protective lipid coating enhances the processing and presentation of viral proteins to stimulate the body’s immune system to effectively fight the disease. Conditions that could potentially be impacted by these technologies include HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C, West Nile, SARS, influenza, and a broad range of animal health applications.
