apoptosis is a complex network of biochemical and molecular pathway with fine regulatory mechanisms that control the death event during several pathological situations in multi cellular organisms. it is the part of normal development that occurs in a variety of diseases and is known as aberrant apoptosis. pancreatic β cell apoptosis is also a pathological feature which is common in both type 1 ...

Backgrounds: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic disease and free fatty acids, as signaling molecules, can play a crucial role in the development of it. Different free fatty acids, through various cell membrane receptors, induce different effects on metabolic pathways and thereby affect insulin sensitivity. Simvastatin is a cholesterol decreasing drug prescrib...

abstract         background and objective: the relationship between diabetes mellitus and increased risk of cardiovascular diseases has been demonstrated. the aim of this study was to determine the fatty acid profile of epicardial adipose tissue in diabetic and non-diabetic patients with cardiovascular disease.          methods: in this study, 28 diabetic and 40 nondiabetic patients were evalua...

the effect of a selected autochthonous starter culture made up by streptococcus thermophilus, lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis and lactobacillus helveticus on the microbiological and physicochemical properties of pecorino romano cheese during ripening was investigated. the suitability of the experimental starter culture was tested at industrial scales in cheese-making trials of pecor...

Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA), Glycerol (G) and sunflower oil blends with varying concentration were subjected to enzymatic esterification using a 1, 3- specific immobilized lipase. CLA was used as acyl due to its purported health benefits. The transesterified lipids were evaluated for free fatty acids (FFA) and composition of fatty acids by gas chromatography. Lipozyme RM IM is preferred for ...

fatty acids play important roles in biological systems and the newborns fatty acids requirements are covered only by the milk. it is of particular interest to qualify the content of the fatty acids in the milk. this study was performed to determine the levels of some fatty acids in the infant formulas and also to describe a method without derivatization for the fatty acids analysis and applying...

this study involved analyzing antioxidant properties of spices, namely clove (syzygium aromaticum linn.), cinnamon (cinnamomum verum, syn c. zeylanicum blume) and sumac (rhus coriaria l.) and exploring their efficacy in a food system. in the first part of the study, the antioxidant activity of water extract of spices treated at different temperatures were measured by three different methods nam...

The effect of aqueous solution of citric acid (CA) on the lipid stability of the European catfish (Silurus glanis) fillets during frozen storage (up to 6 months) was investigated. Rancidity development was measured by several biochemical indices (free fatty acids, peroxides and TBA) and complemented by the measurement of expressible moisture and sensory evaluation (flesh odor, consistency and f...
