The isolation of lipoproteins from human plasma by ultracentrifugation in zonal rotors

Journal of Lipid Research, 1971
The major classes of lipoproteins were isolated from human plasma by ultracentrifugation in continuous density gradients using the Ti-14 and Ti-15 zonal rotors.

Impact of the gut microbiota on inflammation, obesity, and metabolic disease [PDF]

, 2016
The human gut harbors more than 100 trillion microbial cells, which have an essential role in human metabolic regulation via their symbiotic interactions with the host.

Melatonin Promotes Improvement in Serum Lipid Levels and Liver Histopathology in Hyperlipidemic Rats

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hyperlipidemia or dyslipidemia is the term used for the increase in lipid levels in blood plasma, usually occurring due to a high‐fat diet associated with a sedentary lifestyle. The increase in lipid levels can cause fatty infiltration in the liver known as hepatic steatosis, which can lead to inflammation, fibrosis, and necrosis consecutively.

Plasma apolipoprotein AV levels in mice are positively associated with plasma triglyceride levels

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009
Apolipoprotein AV (apoAV) overexpression causes a decrease in plasma triglyceride (TG) levels, while deficiency of apoAV causes hypertriglyceridemia in both men and mice.

Birth outcome in relation to licorice consumption during pregnancy.

, 2001
A role for glucocorticoids is suspected in the etiology of low birth weight. The authors tested whether maternal consumption of glycyrrhizin (an inhibitor of cortisol metabolism) in licorice affects birth weight in humans. A sample of 1,049 Finnish women

Gene-environment interactions due to quantile-specific heritability of triglyceride and VLDL concentrations. [PDF]

, 2020
"Quantile-dependent expressivity" is a dependence of genetic effects on whether the phenotype (e.g., triglycerides) is high or low relative to its distribution in the population.

Hepatitis C virus production requires apolipoprotein A-I and affects its association with nascent low-density lipoproteins [PDF]

, 2011
Background/aims The life cycle of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is intimately linked to the lipid metabolism of the host. In particular, HCV exploits the metabolic machinery of the lipoproteins in several steps of its life cycle such as circulation in the ...

The Plasma Free Fatty Acid Carrier Proteome is Altered in Diet‐Induced and Genetically Obese Mice

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective We aimed to examine the effect of obesity on the plasma free fatty acid (FFA) carrier proteome in mice. Methods From 6 to 20 weeks of age, male and female C57BL/6J wild‐type mice were fed either a low‐fat diet (10% of kilocalories from fat) or a high‐fat diet (60% of kilocalories from fat), and leptin‐deficient ob/ob mice were fed a ...

High density lipoprotein-induced cardiac prostacyclin synthesis in vitro: relationship to cardiac arachidonate mobilization.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
The objectives of this study were to characterize the effects of plasma lipoproteins on prostacyclin (PGI2) production by the Langendorff-perfused rabbit heart, and to determine the mechanism of lipoprotein-induced cardiac PGI2 production.

Unraveling the spatial landscape of dystrophinopathies: a transcriptomic approach to Becker and Duchenne muscular dystrophies

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dystrophinopathies are caused by pathogenic variants in the DMD gene, resulting in partial (Becker) or complete loss (Duchenne) of dystrophin. Becker (BMD) and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) are characterized by progressive muscle wasting, fatty replacement, fibrosis, and loss of function.
