Abstract Background: Childhood leukemia, the most common type of cancer in children and teens, is a cancer of the white blood cells. As antioxidants can promote immune system against all types of cancer, the aim of this study was to explore the metabolic regulation and anti-oxidative effect of sesquiterpen-rich extract of Ferula Asafoetida (FA) on children with leukemia. Materials and Met...

We investigated the effects of two exercise modalities on postprandial triglyceride (TG) and free fatty acid (FFA) metabolism. Sedentary, obese women were studied on three occasions in randomized order: endurance exercise for 60 min at 60-65% aerobic capacity (E), ~60 min high-intensity resistance exercise (R), and a sedentary control trial (C). After exercise, a liquid-mixed meal containing [U...

Purpose: To evaluate the antioxidant and antihyperlipidemic activities of the methanol extract of aerial part of Crassocephalum crepidioides (Asteraceae) Benth. S. Moore. Methods: The methanol extract of Crassocephalum crepidioides was prepared by organic solvent extraction (Maceration) and assessed for in vitro antioxidant activity using various methods, namely, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (...

low density lipoprotein (ldl) subclass pattern b is characterized by predominance of small dense ldl. subjects with pattern b tend to have higher triglyceride (tg) and lower levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (hdl-c). small dense ldl is associated with increased risk of coronary disease. in this study, effect of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (niddm) on ldl size, plasma tg ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Remnant-like particle cholesterol (RLP-C) is atherogenic and may increase atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk. Icosapent ethyl is a high-purity prescription eicosapentaenoic acid ethyl ester (approved as an adjunct to diet to reduce triglyceride [TG] levels in adult patients with TGs ≥500 mg/dL [≥5.65 mmol/L] at 4 g/day). In the MARINE and ANCHOR studies, icosapent e...

the present study examined the effect of endurance training on lipid profile, body weight and cardiovascular endurance in normal male rats after bunium persicum extract administration. 40 experimental male rats were divided into 5 groups: control, placebo, endurance training (et), bunium persicum extract administer (bpea) and et – bpea group. the exercise protocol was performed at a speed of 25...

BACKGROUND Acylation Stimulating Protein (ASP) has been shown to influence adipose tissue triglyceride (TG) storage. The aim was to examine ethnic differences in ASP and leptin levels in relation to lipid profiles and postprandial changes amongst African American (AA) and Caucasian American (CA) women matched for BMI. METHODS 129 women were recruited in total (age 21 - 73 y): 24 non-obese (BM...
