Aortic valve disease: Novel animal models for advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

NMR-Based Lipid Profiling of High Density Lipoprotein Particles in Healthy Subjects with Low, Normal, and Elevated HDL-Cholesterol

, 2017
Recent studies suggest that the cholesterol content of HDL (high density lipoproteins) may provide limited information on their antiatherogenic properties and that the composition and particles’ structure provide more information on their functionality ...

Fasting and Refeeding Mediated Phospholipid Remodeling Plays an Important Role in Improving Meat Quality of Aged Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.

Relationship of high density lipoprotein cholesterol to cholesterol metabolism in the baboon (Papio sp.).

Journal of Lipid Research, 1984
Genetic effects on serum high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentration and several parameters of a two-pool model of cholesterol metabolism were investigated in 79 baboons, the progeny of 6 sires.

Indices of Systemic Inflammation Are Elevated in Women With Evidence of Metabolic Syndrome After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To investigate the association between metabolic syndrome (MetSy) and systemic indices of the immune system and inflammation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Methods This retrospective study included adult patients (≥18 years) who underwent ACLR at a single academic institution between 2009 and 2022.

Effects of human follicular fluid and high-density lipoproteins on early spermatozoa hyperactivation and cholesterol efflux

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
The preovulatory human follicular fluid contains only HDLs as a lipoprotein class with a typically high proportion of preβ HDL. We first examined the role of follicular fluid and HDL subfractions on human spermatozoa capacitation, a process characterized

LIFESTYLE DETERMINANTS OF HIGH- DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN CHOLESTEROL (HDL-C) IN YOUNG ADULTS

The Medical Journal of Basrah University, 2008
ABSTRACT High-density lipoprotein cholesterol is a potent predictor of coronary heart disease. Genetic as well as environmental factors including lifestyle factors play a role as determinants of its level in the blood. To examine the effects of certain lifestyle factors on serum level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol in young adult people. Three-

Clozapine:norclozapine ratio as a marker of metabolic risk and therapeutic response and effect of valproate on clozapine levels

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Clozapine is the most effective antipsychotic in treatment‐resistant schizophrenia. Clozapine causes weight gain and increased diabetes risk. The role of its metabolite norclozapine and clozapine:norclozapine ratio (CLZ/NCLZ) in metabolic effects has been debated.
