Lipoids in 131 Diabetic Bloods

Serum Lipoids in Diabetes.

Recently high-carbohydrate, low-fat diets have been widely advocated for diabetic patients (3, 17, 20, 23, 24, 30, 36, 48, 52). As arguments for this therapy it has been claimed that hypercholesterolemia is of grave prognosis in diabetes and that high fat diets may superinduce hyperlipemia. The following investigation was undertaken to determine the incidence of hypercholesterolemia in diabetes...

Lipoids and Immunological Reactions

It has been demonstrated that the removal of lipoids from Type I antipneumococcus horse serum causes a loss of the visible phenomena of type specific agglutination and precipitation, and in the case of rabbit serum a marked reduction in these properties. Initial activity of the type specific antibody can be restored to extracted immune horse serum by the addition of lecithin, and to rabbit seru...

Cclix. Physico-chemical Studies of Lipoids

Lipoids as Inhibitors of Anaphylactic Shock

1. The antitryptic titer of the serum can be increased by subcutaneous injections of serum lipoids (antitrypsin) and of the lipoids from egg yolk. 2. Animals so injected show a relative immunity to acute anaphylactic shock (two minimum lethal doses). 3. Extraction of lipoids contained in antigens increases the toxicity of the antigen when injected into a sensitized animal. 4. Sublethal doses of...
