The Roles of ApoC-III on the Metabolism of Triglyceride-Rich Lipoproteins in Humans
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally. It is well-established based on evidence accrued during the last three decades that high plasma concentrations of cholesterol-rich atherogenic lipoproteins are causatively linked to CVD,

Pancreatic triglyceride lipase mediates lipotoxic systemic inflammation.
Visceral adipose tissue plays a critical role in numerous diseases. While imaging studies often show adipose involvement in abdominal diseases, their outcomes may vary from being a mild self limited illness to one with systemic inflammation and organ ...

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

Different Effects of Maternal Low-Isoflavone Soy Protein and Genistein Consumption on Hepatic Lipid Metabolism of 21-Day-Old Male Rat Offspring. [PDF]
Amino acid composition and isoflavone are alleged contributors to the beneficial effects of soy protein isolate (SPI) on lipid metabolism. Therefore, we investigated the contributing component(s) of SPI in a maternal diet to the regulation of lipid ...

Elevated plasma homocysteine in type 2 diabetes mellitus: a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases
INTRODUCTION: Elevated plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) concentration has been associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetic individuals independent of conventional risk factors.

Stereospecific analyses of several vegetable fats
The distribution of fatty acids among the positions 1, 2, and 3 of triglycerides of seven vegetable fats has been determined. The fatty acid compositions in positions 1 and 3 are very similar in most cases, but in none of the fats is the distribution ...

Colorimetric Measurement of Triglycerides Cannot Provide an Accurate Measure of Stored Fat Content in Drosophila [PDF]
Drosophila melanogaster has recently emerged as a useful model system in which to study the genetic basis of regulation of fat storage. One of the most frequently used methods for evaluating the levels of stored fat (triglycerides) in flies is a coupled ...
