The direct vasoactive effects of native and oxidatively modified low density lipoproteins as well as their effects on endothelium-dependent relaxations to 5-hydroxytryptamine were studied in isolated rings of pig right coronary artery. Slowly developing contractions were caused by native low density lipoproteins (100 gg protein/ml). The contractions were more pronounced in the absence than in t...

The intestine has long been recognized as n organ active in lipoprotein formation. This is hardly surprising when one considers the large quantities of dietary and endogenous lipids that traverse the intestinal mucosa daily and are absorbed into the mesenteric lymph as lipoproteins. Until recently, the major focus of research on intestinal ipoprotein metabolism was concerned with the intesti...

Abstract Histochemical staining of histological sections Varroa destructor (Anderson and Trueman, 2000) mites reveal the internal body plan are used to contrast organs associated with feeding reproduction starved versus recently fed female mites. The gnathosoma is comprised a powerful sucking pharynx, which employs 11 alternating dilator constrictor muscles, chelicerae, salivary ducts, salivari...

Understanding the chemical nature of biomarkers and their interaction with host environment is critical to both development implementation diagnostic tools therapeutics. Human lipoproteins, such as high-density lipoprotein (HDL) low-density (LDL), are important carrier molecules for transporting cholesterol other lipid organs where they can be processed. These lipoproteins have more recently be...

conclusions decreases of tc, ldl and tg may be related to tomato antioxidant effect. this course in human required more investigations. results results showed that in chol group, all lipids increased significantly (p < 0.05) except hdl compared to the control group. tomato and tomato paste supplementation decreased tc, ldl and tg concentration significantly (p < 0.05) compared to chol group. to...

Escherichia coli lipoproteins are anchored to the inner or outer membrane depending on the residue at position 2. Aspartate at this position makes lipoproteins specific to the inner membrane, whereas other residues cause the release of lipoproteins from the inner membrane in a manner dependent on both ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter LolCDE and molecular chaperone LolA, followed by LolB-d...

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common reproductive-endocrine disorder affecting 10% of women. PCOS increases risk developing diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD). We have previously shown high-risk young women with without an atherogenic lipoprotein profile, this exacerbated in PCOS, elevated triglycerides (TG), remnant cholesterol apoB-lipoproteins. The aim study was to dete...

To evaluate the correlations of the serum concentrations of trace elements with lipids and lipoproteins in water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), the serum concentrations of cholesterol, triglyceride, total lipids, very low density lipoproteins (VLDL-cholesterol), low density lipoproteins (LDL-cholesterol) and high density lipoproteins (HDL-cholesterol) and their correlations with serum concentration...
