we studied the effect of different concentrations of alpha-tocopherol on in vitro cupric ions induced oxidation of low density lipoproteins (ldl). human native ldl (50 µg protein/ml) oxidation was induced by 10 µmol/l of cuso4. conjugated dienes were measured spectrophotometrically for up to 440 minutes. the length of the lag phase (tlag), maximum velocity of the reaction (vmax) and the maximum...

aim: aim of present study was to review the effect of eight weeks aerobic training on visfatin total cholesterol and high density lipoprotein of middle age females. materials and methods: for these purpose 30 females (mean age 48/73±9/44 y, height 156/03±5/6 cm and weight 68/37±10/57 kg) who attend in odd day’s morning sport class of hejab gymnasium of shiraz city after fill health and informed...

osteonectin is a bone- associated protein involved in vascular calcification. adiponectin may protect against cardiovascular disease but possible effects on vascular calcification have been poorly studied. the aim of this study was to investigate the modulatory effect of adiponectin on oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxldl)- induced expression of osteonectin in human aorta vascular smooth mus...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of olive leaf (ol) on immune response and some blood metabolites of broiler chickens. a total of 400 one-day-old broiler chicks (male and female) were randomly assigned to 5 experimental treatments with 4 replicates of 20 birds each. birds of different treatments were given diets containing 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1% ol powder from 14 to 4...

background low plasma concentrations of coenzyme q10 (coq10) have been associated with concentration of lipoproteins and other factors contributing to coronary heart diseases. objectives the present investigation aimed to improve the blood pressure and serum lipoproteins concentration in patients with myocardial infarction (mi) by coq10 supplementation. patients and methods in this randomized d...
