Genetic determinants of obesity-related lipid traits.
In our ongoing effort to identify genes influencing the biological pathways that underlie the metabolic disturbances associated with obesity, we performed genome-wide scanning in 2,209 individuals distributed over 507 Caucasian families to localize quantitative trait loci (QTLs), which affect variation of plasma lipids. Pedigree-based analysis using a quantitative trait variance component linka...
متن کاملPhylogenetic Profiles Reveal Structural and Functional Determinants of Lipid-binding.
One of the major challenges in the genomic era is annotating structure/function to the vast quantities of sequence information now available. Indeed, most of the protein sequence database lacks comprehensive annotation, even when experimental evidence exists. Further, within structurally resolved and functionally annotated protein domains, additional functionalities contained in these domains a...
متن کاملEffect of Ramadan Fasting on Blood Pressure and Lipid Profiles
Introduction: Ramadan is a holy month for Muslims during which avoid from eating, drinking and sexual intercourse for about 13-17 hours. The aim of this study was surveying the effects of Islamic fasting in Ramadan on lipid profile and blood pressure.Materials and Methods: we designed this study in two phases, a week before and a week after Ramadan month. Eighty nine healthy subjects with 20-50...
متن کاملLipid Profiles and Lipid Oxidation in Type 2 Diabetic Patients with Good Glycemic Control
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of good glycemic control on serum lipids levels and lipid peroxidation, and to find out the relationship between the level of malondialdehyde and HbA1c in type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifty type 2 diabetic patients aged 40-60 years with the history of diabetes for more than 10 years were studied. Glycemic control was stable...
متن کاملEthnic Difference in Lipid Profiles
Dyslipidaemia is a major cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor that plays an important role in the progress of atherosclerosis, the underlying pathology of CVD. To keep lipids and lipoproteins levels within ideal range has been recommended by different national, regional, or global (2001; Graham et al. 2007; World Health Organization 2007) guidelines on the prevention and management of CVD. ...
