Abstract Background The present study focused on the antidiabetic potential and fingerprinting analysis of Bryophyllumc pinnatum stems as well its possible mechanisms action along with identification major phytoconstituents. oral glucose tolerance test has been performed administering a solution (2000 mg/kg) to induce hyperglycemia. Diabetes have instigated by single intra-peritoneal injection ...

Radioiodinated apolipoprotein E, added in small amounts to rat serum, rapidly associates with the serum very low density lipoproteins and high density lipoproteins in proportion to their content of endogenous and apolipoprotein E. The labeled lipoproteins can be separated, without ultracentrifugation, by molecular sieve chromatography. When these labeled lipoproteins are injected intravenously ...

Lipoproteins, isolated by sequential flotation at densities 1.006, 1.019, 1.063, and 1.21, were examined for their ability to inhibit human lymphocytes stimulated by allogeneic cells and by lectins (phytohemagglutinin-P and concanavalin A). All the classes of normal plasma lipoproteins inhibited lymphoproliferation when peripheral blood lymphocytes were cultured in autologous, heterologous, or ...

in order to determine the lipids and lipoproteins profiles in iranian khouzestanian arab horses, blood samples were collected from the jugular vein of 77 horses(47 female, 30 male) from different age groups(< 6, 7-12, 12-36, 37-60, 61- 69 and > 96 months). serum cholesterol and triglyceride were measured by enzymatic methods and lipoproteins by precipitation methods. the results were analyzed b...

Diabetes mellitus is a worldwide leading metabolic syndrome, associated with profound alterations in carbohydrate, lipids, lipoproteins and protein metabolisms. Worldwide, traditional practitioners for the treatment of diabetes and its complications use a wide variety of medicinal plants. In the present study the aqueous extract of Tephrosia purpurea leaves (TpALet) was evaluated for its antihy...

Olive oil as medicine: the effect on lipids and lipoproteins This report focuses on studies examining the effect of olive oil on blood lipids (cholesterol and triglycerides) and lipoproteins (LDL, VLDL, and HDL). It is the first in a series of reports that summarize published studies examining the effect of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) on clinical risk factors for chronic diseases. These repor...
