Analysis of Reference Range Values of Lipid Profile and Lipid Ratio in Healthy Young Adult Population in Makassar, Indonesia

open access: yesNational Journal of Community Medicine
Background: Lipids are essential for energy, hormones, digestion, and cell structure. A reference range of population-specific lipid profiles is essential due to variations. This study aimed to determine reference ranges for lipid profiles and ratios in

Waist-to-height ratio versus waist-to-hip ratio in predicting serum lipid concentration and cardiovascular risk factors in adult females

open access: yesNational Journal of Physiology, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2019
Background: The prevalence of dyslipidemia has been on a continuous rise in recent years in both developing and developed countries. Among all other risk factors, obesity tops them all, placing the individual at risk for developing cardiovascular ...

Association between Lipid Ratios and Insulin Resistance in a Chinese Population

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2015
To explore the association of lipid ratios and triglyceride (TG) with insulin resistance (IR) in a Chinese population. We also provide the clinical utility of lipid ratios to identify men and women with IR.This cross-sectional study included 614 men and 1055 women without diabetes.

Aquaporin‐3 and aquaporin‐5 impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma spheroids

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the role of aquaporin‐3 (AQP3) and aquaporin‐5 (AQP5) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Both proteins are upregulated in PDAC and are associated with tumor progression and metastatic potential. Silencing AQP3 or AQP5 in PDAC spheroids results in decreased diameter, area, and overall growth, underscoring their key ...

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Lipids as potential mediators linking body mass index to diabetes: evidence from a mediation analysis based on the NAGALA cohort

open access: yesBMC Endocrine Disorders
Background Body mass index (BMI) and lipid disorders are both known to be strongly associated with the development of diabetes, however, the indirect effect of lipid parameters in the BMI-related diabetes risk is currently unknown.

Effects of IGFBP4 deficiency on human preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation through the IGF1R/AKT pathway

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IGFBP4 knockdown (KD) impairs preadipocyte proliferation and is associated with IGF1R protein downregulation and attenuated AKT phosphorylation. The mechanisms by which IGFBP4 KD influences the IGF1R/AKT signaling pathway involve newly synthesized proteins and lysosomal degradation pathways. Created in BioRender.
