The Splenectomy Effects on Lipid Profile and Glucose Metabolism in the Major Thalassemia Patients

Background: Splenectomy is a common treatment for beta thalassemia. It not only eliminates many complications by reducing the need for blood transfusion, but also causes new complications that threaten the patientschr('39') health. The aim of this study was to determine if splenectomy could alter the lipid profile and glucose metabolism in beta thalassemia major patients. Methods: In this case-...

Serum Lipids in Different Phases of Carbohydrate Metabolism ‡

If the reader would integrate the intermediary metabolism of lipids with that of carbohydrates let him read, albeit in reverse direction, Dr. Peters' chapters on lipids and carbohydrate in Grollman's text,' the article on "The interrelations of foodstuffs in metabolism" in the 1951 Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine,' the chapter on lipids in the 1946 edition of Quantitative clinical chemistr...

نقش اسید ایکوزاپنتاانوئیک(EPA) بر بیان ژن گیرنده آلفای فعال‌شده در پروکسیزوم‌های در حال تکثیر (PPAR)

Introduction: Defect in the cholesterol homeostasis in macrophage as well as converting them to foam cells is one of the most important factors in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Many genes and transcription factors like Peroxisome Proliferators Activated Receptors are involved in cholesterol homeostasis in these cells. N-3 fatty acids are one of the most important factors re...

The Effects of Piper Guineense versus Sesamum Indicum Aqueous Extracts on Lipid Metabolism and Antioxidants in Hypercholesterolemic Rats

Background: Piper guineense (PG) and Sesamum indicum (SI) have been shown to be rich sources of antioxidants and other health benefits; hence, we evaluated the impact of its consumption in hypercholesterolemic model on lipid metabolism. Methods: Forty-eight animals were divided into eight groups of six rats each. Rats were given cholesterol (40 mg/0.3ml), PG and SI extract (100 and 200 mg/kg), ...
