CETP activity in liver perfusates and plasma from rabbits hypo- or hyperresponsive to dietary cholesterol.
We investigated the relationship between the development of hypercholesterolemia in rabbits and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity secretion by their perfused livers. Two inbred strains of rabbits were compared which differ markedly in their hypercholesterolemic response to dietary cholesterol. Feeding a high-cholesterol (0.3%) diet, increased plasma and liver cholesterol level ...
متن کاملInheritance of plasma cholesterol levels in mice.
Mean plasma cholesterol levels were determined at two ages in mice from eight unrelated inbred strains (BALB/cJ, BDP/J, CBA/J, C57BL/6J, LP/J, RF/J, SJL/J, and 129/J). Significant strain, sex, and age differences were observed. Estimates of the degree of genetic determination of the trait obtained from an analysis of the strain data averaged 58 +/- 4% for the males and 54 +/- 8% for the females...

متن کاملTransgenic tobacco plants with reduced capability to detoxify reactive oxygen intermediates are hyperresponsive to pathogen infection.
Reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI) play a critical role in the defense of plants against invading pathogens. Produced during the "oxidative burst," they are thought to activate programmed cell death (PCD) and induce antimicrobial defenses such as pathogenesis-related proteins. It was shown recently that during the interaction of plants with pathogens, the expression of ROI-detoxifying enzymes ...
