conclusions using baseline measurements of lipids led to considerable underestimation in the association of these factors with cvd outcome in tlgs. the underestimation increased with time interval between baseline and follow-up measurements for tc and tg. tc had more attenuation on estimated hr due to stronger relation with cvd risk. results by parametric method, based on reexamination three ye...

Cholesterol–PEG–Cholesterol could be a new alternative for PEGylation of liposomes.

The animal cell is a unique system in which the functioning of its constituent molecules interdependent and coordinated, violation this coordination fatal for cell. One example mutual regulation membrane proteins, whose activity depends on their interaction with lipids. This review reminds us crucial importance lipid component membranes normal function, particular looks at role "cholesterol" co...
