Radiographic manifestations of Mönckeberg arteriosclerosis in the head and neck region
Mönckeberg sclerosis is a disease of unknown etiology, characterized by dystrophic calcification within the arterial tunica media of the lower extremities leading to reduced arterial compliance.

Dietary fat clearance is modulated by genetic variation in apolipoprotein A-IV gene locus
Previous studies have shown that the A-IV-347Ser polymorphism is associated with the variability in low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol response to dietary therapy.

Diagnostic accuracy of Doppler ultrasound technique of the penile arteries in correlation to selective arteriography [PDF]
In 63% of 265 patients with erectile dysfunction a relevant arterial inflow disturbance was found by Doppler ultrasound examination. Correlation between Doppler and arteriography in 58 patients showed an accuracy of 95% in detecting penile arteries and ...

PAT family proteins pervade lipid droplet cores
The PAT family proteins, named after perilipin, adipophilin, and the tail-interacting protein of 47 kDa (TIP47), are implicated in intracellular lipid metabolism. They associate with lipid droplets, but how is completely unclear.

The role of phosphatidylserine recognition receptors in multiple biological functions
Apoptotic cells are rapidly engulfed and degraded by phagocytes through efferocytosis. Efferocytosis is a highly regulated process. It is triggered upon the activation of caspase-dependent apoptosis, which in turn promotes the expression of “eat me ...

High plasma level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is the main driver of the initiation and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Nevertheless, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is considered an anti-atherogenic lipoprotein due to its role in reverse
