conclusions in a current study based on increasing maternal age, the hdl-c level in cord blood was decreased which is an independent risk factor for cvds in adulthood. results a statistically significant negative correlation was observed between cord blood hdl-c and maternal age (r = -0.18, p <0.01). there was no relationship between other lipids and lipoproteins with maternal age. our findings...

To investigate the influence of harpagide isolated from Scrophularia ningpoensis Hemsl. on human umbilical vascular endothelial cells damage induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein and its possible mechanism. Human were cultured in vitro. Different doses (20, 40, 80 μmol/l) applied to treat lipoprotein, overexpressing microRNA-140-5p μg/ml was with downregulation. Enzyme-linked immunosorben...

accumulating evidence suggest that in patients with diabetes mellitus, increased rate of lipoprotein oxidation and oxidative stress have important role in diabetic angiopathy, including nephropathy. to evaluate the association of oxidized low- density lipoprotein (ox-ldl) with the development of diabetic nephropathy, plasma level of ox-ldl were measured in 70 diabetic patients with macro and 63...

liver secretes a large range of very low density lipoprotein (vldl) particles of different sizes and svedberg flotation rates (sf). in plasma vldl is converted to low density lipoprotein (ldl)which in turn plays an important role in the development of atherosclerotic diseases; however,triglyceride (tg) rich vldl1 has been shown to be more deleterious than cholesteryl ester (ce) rich vldl2. ther...

introduction: estrogen is one of the female sex hormones that in addition to its reproductive role, has favorable fects on the metabolism of blood lipids and lipoproteins and by this way decreases the coronary heart disease. n the other hand, phytoestrogens are phytochemical substances that have effects like estrogens. isoflavones, hich the most important of them is genistein, are the most comm...

background: obesity is a global public health problem. visfatin, as an adipocytokine, is coded by a gene known as nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase. so far, results were conflicted  regarding correlations of visfatin with obesity and metabolic variables.the present study aimed to explore the association between g?948t polymorphism of visfatin gene with obesity and lipid profile in a nation...

This study aimed to investigate the concentrations effect of some Electrolytes (Sodium, Potassium, and Magnesium) Lipids compounds (Cholesterol, Triglycerides, high density lipoprotein, low very lipoprotein), sex hormones (estrogen testosterone) on atherosclerosis disease. The included a comparison between 60 patients from both male female with heart disease, 40 healthy gender. age ranged (30 -...

The present study was aimed efficiency to evaluate the unsaturated fatty acid omega-3 in reducing side effects that resulted from administration of cyclosporine drug white rabbits. (60) males' rabbits were used this study, divided into four groups contain (15) per group and its subdivision three (5) group. first is orally administered with normal saline, second (25mg/kg) only. Third on day (500...

Background: The association between coronary artery disease and androgenic alopecia has been demonstrated, but few studies have focused on the mechanism of this association. The aim of this study was to evaluate the lipid profile in male pattern alopecia.Methods: In this case control study, 45 male patients with androgenic alopecia who were aged from 20 to 50 years and 45 men with a norma...
