Physiological Significance of Oxidized Cholesterols

Glycemic Index: Physiological Significance

The glycemic index (GI) is a physiological assessment of a food’s carbohydrate content through its effect on postprandial blood glucose concentrations. Evidence from trials and observational studies suggests that this physiological classification may have relevance to those chronic Western diseases associated with overconsumption and inactivity leading to central obesity and insulin resistance....

The physiological significance of bronchiectasis.

Examination of bronchiectatic bronchi reveal8 the loss of normal columnar ciliated epithelium. This is replaced in some iastanees by purely cicatricial tissue, and in others by a stratified squarnous cell epithelium. The basement membrane of the mucosa is likewise destroyed or damaged, and elastic tissue fibers disappear. The submucosa, normally a loose fatty connective tissue, becomes densely ...

Physiological significance of volume-regulatory transporters.

Research over the past 25 years has identified specific ion transporters and channels that are activated by acute changes in cell volume and that serve to restore steady-state volume. The mechanism by which cells sense changes in cell volume and activate the appropriate transporters remains a mystery, but recent studies are providing important clues. A curious aspect of volume regulation in mam...
