Dietary fatty acids and lipoproteins on progression of age-related macular degeneration [PDF]
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a medical condition of central loss vision and blindness. Numerous studies have revealed that changes on certain dietary fatty acids (FAs) could have useful for AMD management.

Charge Heterogeneity of Human Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL)
Plasma samples were obtained from patients with known history of atherosclerosis as well as from a group of Bantus of South Africa and a group of medical students without any history of atherosclerotic vascular disease. The isoelectric point (IEP) of LDL of the different persons was determined by electrophoresis in agarose gel at different pH values ...

Structured Lipids: Synthesis, Genetic Engineering, and Applications
ABSTRACT Lipids are essential to the human body, but some can be harmful. As a result, current research focuses on structured lipids (SLs), which are engineered to have specific fatty acid arrangements. These structural modifications can enhance both nutritional and physical properties.

Emerging low-density lipoprotein (LDL) therapies: Management of severely elevated LDL cholesterol—The role of LDL-apheresis [PDF]
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-apheresis is a Food and Drug Administration-approved treatment for patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) or severe heterozygous FH. Based on electrochemical principles, it selectively removes apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins through extracorporeal precipitation with either heparin (Heparin ...

Metabolomic analysis reveals the molecular mechanism related to leg abnormality in broilers
The graphical abstract shows the principal results of this study. Compared to the leg normal broilers, the serum calcium to phosphorus ratio was extremely decreased in the group with deformed leg bones. Additionally, a total of nine differential metabolites significantly associated with leg abnormalities and serum calcium and phosphorus levels were ...

Hepatic Golgi lipoproteins: precursors to plasma lipoproteins in hypercholesterolemic rats
Two classes of nascent lipoproteins can be isolated from Golgi apparatus-rich fractions of liver from hypercholesterolemic rats. Golgi very low density lipoproteins (VLDL, d less than 1.006 g/ml) are enriched in cholesteryl esters and are similar in many

Genetic obesity increases pancreatic expression of mitochondrial proteins which regulate cholesterol efflux in BRIN-BD11 insulinoma cells [PDF]
Pancreatic β-cells are sensitive to fluctuations in cholesterol content, which can damage the insulin secretion pathway, contributing to the aetiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.
