Controlling the biodegradation rates of poly(globalide-co-ε-caprolactone) copolymers by post polymerization modification [PDF]
Controlling the degradation rates of polymers is crucial for their application in tissue engineering or to achieve degradation of the polymers in the wastewater purification. As hydrophobic polyesters often exhibit very slow degradation rates, we report here increased biodegradation rates of poly(globalide-co-{\epsilon}-caprolactone) copolymers (PGlCL)

Glucagon and Plasma Lipoprotein Lipase
SummarySubcutaneous administration of 1.0 mg glucagon to 15 fasted normal people caused significant increase of plasma lipoprotein lipase-like activity in 1 hr. The activity is termed lipase-like since coconut oil emulsion rather than isolated chylomicrons was used as substrate.

Obesity, White Adipose Tissue, and Adipokines Signaling in Male Reproduction
Role of adipokines in the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal axis (HPG) during obesity. Obesity induces structural and functional changes in WAT, with a consequent imbalance in the production and secretion of adipokines. While the adipokines adiponectin and omentin‐1 are downregulated, the adipokines leptin, resistin, vifastin, apelin, and chemerin are ...

Milk Lipoprotein Lipases: A Review
Lipoprotein lipase activity has been found in the milks from severals species where it is assumed to result from leakage from the mammary gland into milk. The function of the enzyme in the gland is apparently to assist in the transfer of blood lipoprotein triacylglycerol fatty acids into milk triacylglycerols.

ABSTRACT Evinacumab, an angiopoietin‐like 3 (ANGPTL3) inhibitor, significantly reduces low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C), independent of low‐density lipoprotein receptor, in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). A population pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD) model was previously developed to characterize ...

Lipoprotein lipase deficiency with pancreatitis in mink: biochemical characterization and pathology
A severe hyperlipemia in mink, with a pattern that suggested recessive inheritance, was observed at a farm in Norway. On a normal mink diet, affected animals had grossly elevated levels of plasma triglycerides which decreased towards normal on a low-fat ...

ABSTRACT Saffron is a traditional herbal medicine used to treat conditions associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, the conclusions of relevant clinical studies have been inconsistent. This study aimed to assess the impact of saffron supplementation on the metabolism of glycolipids and blood pressure in individuals with MetS and related ...

Chylomicron protein content and the rate of lipoprotein lipase activity
Chylomicrons isolated from rat intestinal lymph were incubated with plasma. Protein transfer to chylomicrons, reaction rate with purified lipoprotein lipase, and content of lipase cofactor were determined.

Prediction of the Yield of Enzymatic Synthesis of Betulinic Acid Ester Using Artificial Neural Networks and Support Vector Machine [PDF]
3\b{eta}-O-phthalic ester of betulinic acid is of great importance in anticancer studies. However, the optimization of its reaction conditions requires a large number of experimental works. To simplify the number of times of optimization in experimental works, here, we use artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) models for the ...
