Plasma lyso-phosphatidylcholine concentration is decreased in cancer patients with weight loss and activated inflammatory status

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2007
Background It has been observed that ras-transformed cell lines in culture have a higher phosphatidylcholine (PC) biosynthesis rate as well as higher PC-degradation rate (increased PC-turnover) than normal cells.

Reducing Audible Spectral Discontinuities [PDF]

, 2001
In this paper, a common problem in diphone synthesis is discussed, viz., the occurrence of audible discontinuities at diphone boundaries. Informal observations show that spectral mismatch is most likely the cause of this phenomenon.We first set out to ...

Deciphering the catalytic and pharmacological mechanisms of Coptis chinensis herbzymes to renovate intestinal microenvironment for colitis alleviation

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The synthesized CCzymes possess both antioxidant enzyme activity and pharmacological properties inherent to Coptis chinensis. By their antioxidant enzyme activity, CCzymes can attenuate oxidative stress within the inflammatory region of ulcerative colitis (UC), while their pharmacological activity acts on macrophage polarization and the intestinal ...

Hypoxia increases mouse satellite cell clone proliferation maintaining both in vitro and in vivo heterogeneity and myogenic potential. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Satellite cells (SCs) are essential for postnatal muscle growth and regeneration, however, their expansion potential in vitro is limited. Recently, hypoxia has been used to enhance proliferative abilities in vitro of various primary cultures.

An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis of Counseling Interns’ Experiences Serving Older Adults

Counselor Education and Supervision, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Demographic shifts and recent changes to Medicare will result in more older adults utilizing counseling. Field experiences, including internships, are vital opportunities for graduate students to gain exposure to new populations, including older adults. We interviewed eight participants who completed internships in a continuing care retirement

Efficacy of measuring lysophosphatidylcholine levels in human cerebrospinal fluid to differentiate myelopathy from cauda equina syndrome

Scientific Reports
Spinal stenosis frequently involves multiple regions, particularly the cervical and lumbar spine. Therefore, it is essential to identify biomarkers that can distinguish between central and peripheral neuropathy. Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), a biomarker

Advantages of Exome Sequencing Over Panel Testing for Individuals With a Seizure Indication

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Our aim was to investigate the advantages of exome sequencing versus panel testing for patients with unexplained seizures. Methods We reviewed the diagnostic outcomes of exome sequencing by a commercial genetics laboratory for more than 16 000 individuals with a clinical history of seizures or suspected seizures.

The dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker benidipine prevents lysophosphatidylcholine-induced endothelial dysfunction in rat aorta

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2009
Background Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), an atherogenic component of oxidized low-density lipoprotein, has been shown to induce the attenuation of endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation. Although benidipine, a dihydropyridine-calcium channel blocker,
