The aim of this study was to characterize the tissue-associated differences in the fatty acid profiles of intramuscular, subcutaneous and hepatic lipids and their quality indices from Lithuanian indigenous wattle pig and wild boar backcross to lean breed. The samples from hybrid pigs (1/4 Lithuanian indigenous wattle, 1/4 wild boar and 1/2 Landrace) were used in the experiment. There was little...

The effects of therapeutic doses of dillsun, garsin, antum and statins on rat liver cytosolic phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP) activity, a key enzyme in triacylglycerol synthesis, and on serum and liver lipids were examined. Lovastatin and simvastatin both stimulated the enzyme activity by 29% and 43%, respectively. The stimulatory effects were dose-dependent and accompanied by the decline ...

In this study, the effect of squid liver powder intake on accumulation of cadmium in mice was investigated. Subjects were divided into 4 groups including the control group (CON), squid liver powder group with lipids not removed (SLP100), and squid liver powder groups with lipids removed (LFSLP50 and LFSLP100). Feed intake and food efficiency ratio of squid liver powder groups was significantly ...

AIMS The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the accumulation and distribution of lipids in the liver of the adult Prague hereditary hypertriglyceridemic (HHTg) rats. They reveal an increased expression of 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11HSD1), which locally increases concentration of corticosterone in the liver. We studied the effect of the 11HSD1 inhibition on the lipid content....

Preservation of the nutritional value fish and useful qualities its rich composition is extremely important. The urgent task food industry to develop create quality products that meet modern production trends compete in domestic foreign markets. This scientific paper describes studies aimed at assessing specific weight (%) essential nutrients (glycogen, proteins, lipids) particular organs tissu...

Infrared (IR) spectroscopic imaging of human liver tissue slices has been used to identify and characterize liver tumors. Liver tissue, containing a liver metastasis of breast origin (mucinous carcinoma), was surgically removed from a consenting patient and frozen without formalin fixation or dehydration procedures, so that lipids and water remained in the tissues. A set of IR metrics (ratios o...

conclusions core-lds interaction may be an underlying molecular mechanism to induce liver steatosis in patients with hcv infection. this interaction is also crucial for efficient viral replication and persistence in infected cells. steatosis can also interfere with efficient standard interferon therapy treatment. management of steatosis should be considered along with standard care for achievin...
