Hold the antioxidants and improve plasma lipids?

Intrahepatic proteolysis is a major determinant of secretion of ApoB-containing lipoproteins into plasma. Stimulation of post-ER presecretory proteolysis (PERPP) of ApoB by n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids has been found to result in reduced secretion of VLDL particles by hepatocytes. A new study has shown that this stimulation is promoted by pro-oxidant conditions that result in increased hepat...

P-29: Antioxidants Improve The Quality of Cryopreserved SSCs

Background Radiotherapy and chemotherapy could affect spermatogenesis process, so it is important to preserve fertility of patients who suffer from cancer disease. Cryopreservation of SSCs is considered as a helpful procedure for preserving male fertility in cancer patients. It seems that antioxidants can decrease ROS formation and reduce side-effects of cryopreservation on cells. In this study...

Evaluation of plasma lipids and lipoproteins in patients with psoriasis

Psoriasis is an epidermal disease characterized by chronic relapsing papillon squamous erythematous plaques which may develop in the skin of elbows, knees and extensor surfaces. The cause of psoriasis is unknown. The primary etiologic factor may be related to excessive uncontrolled synthesis is resulting from changes in (1) the function of growth factors ( EGF),(2) presence of proto- oncogenes,...

Plasma lipids and atherosclerosis.

Hyperlipidaemia may be defined as the presence of excess lipid in the blood. It may be classified according to the nature of the lipids which are increased. A classification of hyperlipidaemia based on the fasting levels of cholesterol and triglyceride allows of three possible abnormal groups, which are shown in table I together with the corresponding classification according to Fredrickson as ...
