Changes in the balance of cholesterol absorption and synthesis and moderately elevated plasma plant sterols have been suggested to be atherogenic. Measuring cholestanol, lathosterol, campesterol, and sitosterol, we investigated the relationships of ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.

The Genetic Landscape of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia in Greece
We investigated 112 Greek index‐cases with hereditary spastic paraplegia collected over > 25 years using NGS and MLPA. We identified a causative variant in 68 patients (60.7%), including 7 novel causative variants. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of HSP in the Greek population.

Highly sensitive analysis of sterol profiles in human serum by LC-ESI-MS/MSs⃞
We have developed a highly sensitive and specific method for the analysis of serum sterol profiles. Sterols in 1 μl of dried serum were derivatized into picolinyl esters (3β-picolinate) and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC ...
