conclusions these results suggest that serum cholesterol, phospholipids and triacylglycerols have no effect on the levels of cholesterol, phospholipids and triacylglycerols of spermatozoa and seminal plasma. our findings suggest that sperm lipid content is regulated locally within the male reproductive tract. patients and methods cholesterol, phospholipids and triacylglycerols in sperm cells, s...

to assess the relative contribution of genetic and environmental factors (particularly androgens) on circulating levels of lipid fractions, serum androgen and lipid fractions were measured in 34 pairs of female-female twins aged from 15- 45 years, some of whom were discordant for polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) diagnosed by ultrasound. nineteen pairs were monozygotic twins (mz) and 15 pairs we...

apolipoprotein e (apo e) is a structural constituent of several serum lipoprotein classes. it plays an important role in lipid metabolism by acting as a ligand for low-density lipoprotein (ldl) and chylomicron remnant receptors. three common alleles called e2, e3 and e4 have been described, which code for three protein isoforms (e2, e3 and e4). the polymorphism is clinically significant, and it...
