Any process by which a macromolecule is transported to, or maintained in, a specific location. The directed movement of a lipid antigen into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of lipids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The regulated release of progesterone, a steroid hormone, by the corpus luteum of the ovary and by the placenta. The translocation, or flipping, of lipid molecules from one monolayer of a membrane bilayer to the opposite monolayer. The directed movement of lipids into cells that is part of their accumulation and maintenance. The directed movement of a cell, substance or cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, to a specific location. Any process by which a lipid is transported to, or maintained in, a specific location. The directed movement of isoprenoids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Isoprenoids comprise a group of compounds containing or derived from linked isoprene (3-methyl-2-butenylene) residues. The directed movement of phospholipids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Phospholipids are any lipids containing phosphoric acid as a mono- or diester. The directed movement of fatty acyl groups into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. A fatty acyl group is any acyl group derived from a fatty acid. The directed movement of lipids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Lipids are compounds soluble in an organic solvent but not, or sparingly, in an aqueous solvent. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of lipids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of sterols into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Sterols are steroids with one or more hydroxyl groups and a hydrocarbon side-chain in the molecule. The directed movement of glycolipids, compounds containing (usually) 1-4 linked monosaccharide residues joined by a glycosyl linkage to a lipid, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of, within or between cells, or within a multicellular organism by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of an acylglycerol into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. An acylglycerol is any mono-, di- or triester of glycerol with (one or more) fatty acids. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of lipids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of fatty acids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Fatty acids are aliphatic monocarboxylic acids liberated from naturally occurring fats and oils by hydrolysis. The directed movement of aminophospholipids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Aminophospholipids contain phosphoric acid as a mono- or diester and an amino (NH2) group. The directed movement of lipids within cells.
