The present study investigated the effects of co-administration of aspirin, metformin, atorvastatin and captopril on serum lipid profile and oxidative stress in the heart and kidney of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. In this study, rats were randomly divided into the following eleven groups: control (Cont.), and diabetic (D), as well as 9 groups that were treated with metformin (M, 300 mg...

The arterial influx of esterified and free cholesterol from low density lipoproteins and very low density lipoproteins in 20 hypercholesterolemic rabbits was measured simultaneously by the use of lipoproteins labeled in vivo with [3H]- and [14C]-cholesterol. The simultaneous arterial influx of either [3H]-leucine-labeled very low density lipoproteins, low density lipoproteins, high density lipo...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The role of lipoprotein abnormalities in the development of ischemic cerebrovascular disease has not been sufficiently clarified. The aim of this study was to identify the lipoprotein profile in ischemic cerebrovascular disease and the possible role of apolipoprotein E polymorphism. METHODS The relation between the concentrations of lipoprotein(a), intermediate density ...

Seventeen young women with clinically confirmed mammary dysplasia and six age-matched controls were treated with atocopherol. Serum samples collected during the luteal phase of each woman at monthly intervals for the 4-month duration of the study were analyzed for serum luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, and prolactin concentrations by radioim munoassay and for lipoprotein level...

Background and Aims: Atorvastatin may alter glycemic traits and lipid profiles. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of atorvastatin on biochemical variables in patients with type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes (borderline diabetes). Materials and Methods: This study included 80 individuals divided into five groups. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and pre-diabetes used atorvastatin 20...

Seventeen young women with clinically confirmed mammary dysplasia and six age-matched controls were treated with alpha-tocopherol. Serum samples collected during the luteal phase of each woman at monthly intervals for the 4-month duration of the study were analyzed for serum luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prolactin concentrations by radioimmunoassay and for lipoprotein l...

background: we studied the effects of high protein (hp) and balanced diets (bds) on lipid profiles, and high‑sensitive c‑reactive protein (hs‑crp) levels in obese and overweight women. methods: in a parallel designed randomized controlled clinical trial, 60 healthy women with body mass index ≥25 kg/m2, aged 20–46 years, enrolled in an 8‑week investigation at aerobic clubs. they were categorized...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of exogenous enzymes supplementation (es) on performance, carcass traits and some blood parameters of broilers chickens. one hundred and eighty day old chicks with 40 ± 2 g initial body weight in a completely randomized design with 3 treatments and 4 replications were fed experimental diets included, 1) basal diet no enzymes (control), 2) bas...
