Interaction between SCO-spondin and low density lipoproteins from embryonic cerebrospinal fluid modulates their roles in early neurogenesis.

Frontiers in neuroanatomy

Vera A, Recabal A, Saldivia N, Stanic K, Torrejón M, Montecinos H, Caprile T.
PMID: 26074785
Front Neuroanat. 2015 May 28;9:72. doi: 10.3389/fnana.2015.00072. eCollection 2015.

During early stages of development, encephalic vesicles are composed by a layer of neuroepithelial cells surrounding a central cavity filled with embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (eCSF). This fluid contains several morphogens that regulate proliferation and differentiation of neuroepithelial cells. One...

Carotenoids: potential allies of cardiovascular health?.

Food & nutrition research

Gammone MA, Riccioni G, D'Orazio N.
PMID: 25660385
Food Nutr Res. 2015 Feb 06;59:26762. doi: 10.3402/fnr.v59.26762. eCollection 2015.

Carotenoids are a class of natural, fat-soluble pigments found principally in plants. They have potential antioxidant biological properties because of their chemical structure and interaction with biological membranes. Epidemiologic studies supported the hypothesis that antioxidants could be used as...

A comparitive study to evaluate the role of serum lipid levels in aetiology of carcinoma breast.

Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR

Kumar V, Singh A, Sidhu DS, Panag KM.
PMID: 25859487
J Clin Diagn Res. 2015 Feb;9(2):PC01-3. doi: 10.7860/JCDR/2015/12273.5563. Epub 2015 Feb 01.

INTRODUCTION: Breast cancer is the most common occurring cancer in women worldwide. Various factors that have lead to change in lifestyle are thought to be associated with increase in breast cancer incidence in Asian countries. Several clinical studies suggest...

Mining the genome for lipid genes.

Biochimica et biophysica acta

Kuivenhoven JA, Hegele RA.
PMID: 24798233
Biochim Biophys Acta. 2014 Oct;1842(10):1993-2009. doi: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2014.04.028. Epub 2014 May 02.

Mining of the genome for lipid genes has since the early 1970s helped to shape our understanding of how triglycerides are packaged (in chylomicrons), repackaged (in very low density lipoproteins; VLDL), and hydrolyzed, and also how remnant and low-density...

Debate: Statins should be used in patients with heart failure.

Current controlled trials in cardiovascular medicine

Kjekshus J.
PMID: 11806812
Curr Control Trials Cardiovasc Med. 2001;2(6):268-270. doi: 10.1186/cvm-2-6-268.

Treatment to prevent progression of heart failure has been targeted to reverse the consequences of heart failure and to a lesser extent the cause - the atherosclerotic plaque itself. Less than 50% of patients with heart failure are treated...

Cardiovascular risk factors in young drug addicts.

Addiction biology

Berg JE, Høstmark AT.
PMID: 12893469
Addict Biol. 1996;1(3):297-302. doi: 10.1080/1355621961000124916.

Since the type of life-style often encountered in drug addicts is purported to influence their risk of cardiovascular disease, it seemed of interest to carry out a descriptive study on risk factors in young addicts. Twenty-four young intravenous drug...

Apolipoprotein M.

Lipids in health and disease

Luo G, Zhang X, Nilsson-Ehle P, Xu N.
PMID: 15461812
Lipids Health Dis. 2004 Oct 04;3:21. doi: 10.1186/1476-511X-3-21.

Apolipoprotein M (apoM) is a 26-kDa protein that is mainly associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in human plasma, with a small proportion present in triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TGRLP) and low-density lipoproteins (LDL). Human apoM gene is located in p21.31 on...

[Relationships among Oxidative Stress Markers, Life Style Factors and Biochemical Findings.].

The Korean journal of laboratory medicine

Kim YK, Lee DH, Jin SH, Lee WG, Song KE.
PMID: 18156749
Korean J Lab Med. 2006 Oct;26(5):343-50. doi: 10.3343/kjlm.2006.26.5.343.

BACKGROUND: In many studies, oxidative stress markers have been employed to serve as a measure of a disease process or to reflect oxidative status. These oxidative stress markers must have some degree of predictive validity, but full substantiation of...

The Influence of L-Carnitine on Oxidative Modification of LDL In Vitro.

Toxicology mechanisms and methods

Augustyniak A, Stankiewicz A, Skrzydlewska E.
PMID: 19696940
Toxicol Mech Methods. 2008 Jul;18(6):455-462. doi: 10.1080/15376510701623508. Epub 2008 Jun 23.

Owing to their structure and function, low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) are particularly susceptible to the oxidative modifications. To prevent against oxidative modification of LDL, L-carnitine, with endogenous small water-soluble quaternary amine possessing antioxidative properties, was used. The aim of this...

The Importance of Oxidation or Glycosylation of Low-density Lipoproteins in Relation to Platelet Activation.

Platelets

Meraji S, Moore CE, Skinner VO, Bruckdorfer KR.
PMID: 21043908
Platelets. 1992;3(3):155-62. doi: 10.3109/09537109209013176.

Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) are thought to influence directly the sensitivity of platelets, but this may only be the case when the LDL are modified by oxidation. In diabetes, LDL are known to be modified by non-enzymatic glycosylation, especially when...

Effects of a (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid-deficient diet on profiles of serum vitellogenin and lipoprotein in vitellogenic trout (Salmo gairdneri).

Lipids

Frémont L, Léger C, Petridou B, Gozzelino MT.
PMID: 21344281
Lipids. 1984 Jul;19(7):522-8. doi: 10.1007/BF02534485.

During the 6 months of vitellogenesis, 3-year-old female trout (Salmo gairdneri) were fed either an enriched (E) or an (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-deficient (D) diet; serum vitellogenin (VG) and lipoproteins (d

Role of oxidatively modified low density lipoproteins and anti-oxidants in atherothrombosis.

Expert opinion on investigational drugs

Holvoet P.
PMID: 15992113
Expert Opin Investig Drugs. 1999 May;8(5):527-44. doi: 10.1517/13543784.8.5.527.

Retrospective studies have demonstrated an association between coronary artery disease (CAD) and increased plasma levels of oxidised low density lipoproteins (LDL). A very recent prospective study in heart transplant patients has demonstrated that oxidised LDL is an independent risk...
