Anastrozole (ANZ) is a potent non-steroidal aromatase II inhibitor (AI) used to decrease or delay the progression of breast tumor growth in some women. Since ANZ could be delivered transdermally due its physicochemical characteristics as (log p 3.5, aqueous solubility 0.5 mg /mL, low dosage and half-life 46.8 hr.) so, it modelling drug evaluation ethosomes, current study aimed formulate loaded ...

Chronic administration of chlorphentermine to rats resulted in a reduction of body weight compared to a normal control group. The weight of the heart, liver, kidney, and spleen was less in the treated group while the weight of the lungs was increased significantly. There was no change in the ratio of right ventricular to left ventricular weight in the rats treated with chlorphentermine, support...

Chloroplasts were isolated from triazine-sensitive and triazine-resistant biotypes of common groundsel (Senecio vulgaris L.), common lambsquarter (Chenopodium album L.), and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.). Chloroplast lipids were extracted and analyzed for differences among sensitive and resistant biotypes. The distribution of lipid between major lipid classes differed in chloropla...

Total lipid extracted from wild-type Trichophyton terrestre CDC-X285 was found to be 2.0 percent of the dry cell weight. The total lipid contained the following phospholipid components identified by silicic acid-impregnated thin-layer and paper chromatography: phosphatidyl inositol, phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl serine, and phosphatidic acid. The total lipid extracted from the phenotype T....

The serum concentrations of total cholesterol and triglycerides as well as the cholesterol, phosphatidyl choline, and apolipoprotein components of HDL were tested in 19 participants immediately before and immediately after a 100-mile run. After the run, taking into account any alterations in total protein, the following changes were observed: a decrease in total cholesterol (p less than 0.001),...

Feeding of protein deficient diet is known to alter the transmembrane signalling in brain of rat by reducing total protein kinase C (PKC) activity. Phospholipid metabolism regulates the activation of PKC through generation of second messengers and the extent of PKC activation accordingly influences the magnitude of phosphorylation of its endogenous substrate proteins. Thus it was speculated tha...

Phospholipase D preferentially contained in human eosinophil polymorphonuclear leukocytes as compared to other leukocytes was isolated by sequential asion and cation exchange chromatography and gel filtration. The purified eosinophil enzyme specifically liberated choline from I-alpha-phosphatidyl choline with a pH optimum of 4.5-6.0 and exhibited a pI of 5.8-6.2 on polyacrylamide-gel isoelectri...

The methylation steps in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine by castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) endosperm have been studied by pulse-chase labeling. Endosperm halves were incubated with [methyl-(14)C]S-adenosyl-l-methionine, [2-(14)C]ethanolamine, [(14)C]ethanolamine phosphate, or [(14)C]serine phosphate. The kinetics of appearance were followed in the free, phospho-, and phosphatidyl-bas...
