DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism involved in the regulation of blood lipid levels which contribute to cardiovascular risk diabetic patients. Active agents that target atherogenic dyslipidemias epigenetically are therefore paramount interest for prevention complications these This study aims at evaluating antiatherogenic effect hydroethanolic extract of A. congolensis (HE...

mimosa pudica lin., known as chue mue, is a stout straggling prostrate shrubby plant, with spinous stipules and globose pinkish flower heads, and grows as weed in almost all parts of the country. it is traditionally used for its various properties and hence in the present study, chloroform extract of mimosa pudica leaves has been screened for its hypolipidemic activity. hypolipidemic activity i...

BACKGROUND & AIMS Type 2 diabetes is associated with significant cardiac morbidity and mortality with a more than threefold increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to assess the serum concentrations of lipoprotein (a) and lipid profile indexes as predictors for CAD in Sudanese type 2 diabetics compared to healthy subjects. MATERIALS & METHODS This case-control study was cond...

Introduction: The alteration in serum lipid profile; increase in total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerol (TAG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C); and reduction in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are key factors in cardiovascular disease progression. The high prevalence and severity of cardiovascular diseases require new screening tools for better evaluation. Atheroge...

BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus induces chronic complications such as cardiovascular damage, cataracts and retinopathy, nephropathy, and polyneuropathy. The main aim of the study was to isolate and identify both of bacterial strain and exopolysaccharide to assess the possible efficiency of exopolysaccharide (BSEPS) from Bacillus subtilus sp .suppress on cardiovascular diseases, atherogenic and cor...
