data regarding the effects of dietary protein on modifying serum lipid and lipoprotein levels are controversial. in this study we have investigated the hypothesis whether dietary protein and protein to carbohydrate ratio could be related to subsequent changes in lipid profile in adults.this 3-yaers follow-up_longitudinal study was conducted on a sample of participants (845 men and 1043 women, a...

because the ingestion of some types of dietary fibers has been shown to influence on the lipid and lipoprotein levels, it is possible that chitosan influences on lipid metabolism. in the present study, the effects of chitosan on the serum, liver lipid and lipoprotein concentrations in rat were investigated. serum lipid level in the treatment groups were decreased compared to that of the control...

background: the association between lipid peroxidation biomarkers and adipocytokines is hypothesized in preeclampsia but little is known about it. objective: the present study was undertaken to determine the association of lipid peroxidation biomarkers measured by the levels of 8-isoprostane and malondialdehyde with adipocytokines leptin and adiponectin in maternal serum of preeclamptic women. ...

In this study. Nd:YAG laser induced lipid peroxidation in spinal cord and the efficacy of alfa-tocoferol on this process were investigated. The study was performed on 36 adult guinea pigs divided imo three group s . The first group was the control group and only laminectomy was performed. In the second group. using a Nd:YAGlaser. foeal spinal cord trauma was induced and lipid peroxidation value...

BACKGROUND The importance of unmetabolized folic acid in maternal and fetal blood is not known. OBJECTIVE We investigated total folate, tetrahydrofolate (THF), 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), formyl-THF, 5,10-methenylTHF, and folic acid concentrations in women and in umbilical cord blood at delivery. DESIGN The study included 87 pregnant women and 29 cord blood samples, including 24 moth...

Objective: Diabetes is the most common metabolic disease. One of the most common problems in diabetic patients is atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease which induced by hyperlipidemia. Also there has been currently great interest in the potential contribution of oxidative stress in development of diabetes complications. The present study was performed to associate between lipid oxidizability a...

Current knowledge on adverse endocrine disruption effects of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) among newborn infants is limited and often controversial. To investigate the associations between prenatal exposure to major POPs and thyroid hormone levels among newborn infants, both cord serum or maternal serum concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (P...

Lipid Ink Spreading Inhibition In article number 2205590, Eider Berganza, Michael Hirtz, and co-workers utilize dip-pen nanolithography to print lipid patches layer-by-layer forming 3D structures on a surface coated with serum albumin stabilizing the structures. The molecules transfer from probe substrate through water meniscus. To further improve their stability, lipid-structures get covered f...
