Nanomaterials and nanoparticles: Sources and toxicity [PDF]

open access: yesPublished in Biointerphases Vol. 2, issue 4 (2007) pages MR17 - MR71, 2008
This review is written with the goal of informing public health concerns related to nanoscience, while raising awareness of nanomaterials toxicity among scientists and manufacturers handling them. We show that humans have always been exposed to nanoparticles and dust from natural sources and human activities, the recent development of industry and ...

The Role of Costimulatory Receptors of the Tumour Necrosis Factor Receptor Family in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that is mediated by both the innate and adaptive immune responses. T lymphocytes, that together with B cells are the cellular effectors of the adaptive immune system, are currently endowed with crucial ...

Systemic arteriosclerosis and eating behavior in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients with visceral fat accumulation

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2015
BackgroundVisceral fat accumulation is a major etiological factor in the progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus and atherosclerosis. We described previously visceral fat accumulation and multiple cardiovascular risk factors in a considerable number of ...

Separation and characterization of plasma lipoproteins of rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta)

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1977
A group of 14 adult male rhesus monkeys was maintained on a low cholesterol–high fat diet. Periodically, animals were fasted and blood samples were taken for characterization of the plasma lipoproteins.

Differential expression of ACAT1 and ACAT2 among cells within liver, intestine, kidney, and adrenal of nonhuman primates

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2000
Two closely related enzymes with more than 50% sequence identity have been identified that catalyze the esterification of cholesterol using acyl-CoA substrates, namely acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) and ACAT2.

Improved Surgical Technique for Heterotopic Aortic Transplantation in Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Transplant arteriosclerosis is the main limitation for long-term survival of solid organ transplant recipients. Animal models would provide invaluable tools to investigate the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of transplant ...

Establishing the bidirectional relationship between depression and subclinical arteriosclerosis – rationale, design, and characteristics of the BiDirect Study

open access: yesBMC Psychiatry, 2014
BackgroundDepression and cardiovascular diseases due to arteriosclerosis are both frequent and impairing conditions. Depression and (subclinical) arteriosclerosis appear to be related in a bidirectional way, and it is plausible to assume a partly joint ...

The effect of periodontal treatment for atherosclerotic indicator:cardio ankle vascular index(CAVI) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Independent from hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking, a classical risk factor for arteriosclerosis, it has been shown that various types of chronic inflammationmay be involved in the development of arteriosclerosis.

Thin-layer electrophoresis of serum lipoproteins

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1966
A method is described for semiquantitative study of serum lipoproteins, with particular reference to the very low density fractions involved in transport of triglycerides. Serum samples were subjected to electrophoresis in thin layers of starch granules;

An efficient chromatographic system for lipoprotein fractionation using whole plasma

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
We have validated a semi-automatic procedure for the efficient isolation of plasma lipoproteins from 300 μl of whole plasma (actual injection volume 200 μl) by Fast Phase Liquid Chromatography (FPLC).
