Lentil, a moderate-energy high-protein pulse crop, provides significant amounts of essential nutrients for healthy living. The objective of this study was to determine if a lentil-based diet affects food and energy intake, body weight, percent body fat, liver weight, and body plasma triacylglycerols
OBJECTIVE
To quantitatively examine and compare the neutral lipid composition of sedimenting and non-sedimenting ocular lens plasma membrane fractions isolated from the cortex and nucleus.
METHODS
Homogenates of bovine lens cortical and nuclear regions were subjected to centrifugation to sediment
OBJECTIVE
We examined the synergism of cataract and diabetes in micronutrient and antioxidant statuses versus diabetes mellitus and cataract alone.
METHODS
Indian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (D; n = 76), those without diabetes and with cataract (NDC; n = 100), those with diabetes and
Analysis of phospholipids was performed using a liquid chromatographic separation with two mass spectrometers in parallel providing electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) data simultaneously from a triple quadrupole instrument and a single quadrupole
The author injected [1-14C]arachidonic acid into the anterior chamber of the rabbit eye, and its metabolism was studied in vivo in the various eye tissues. Incorporation of the radioisotope was analyzed in individual phospholipids and neutral lipids, and its conversion to oxygenated metabolites was
Ions formed from lipids during electrospray ionization of crude lipid extracts have been mass-selected within a quadrupole linear ion trap mass spectrometer and allowed to react with ozone vapor. Gas-phase ion-molecule reactions between unsaturated lipid ions and ozone are found to yield two primary
A surface membrane fraction of high purity and good yield has been prepared from homogenates of rabbit peritoneal polymorphonuclear leucocytes, using a preliminary sorbitol density gradient sedimentation followed by preparative high voltage electrophoresis in a thin flowing buffer film. Enrichment
Physical properties (e.g. specific gravity, adiabatic compressibility and sound velocity) of lipids isolated from tissues from contiguous areas of the fatty melon of an echo-locating porpoise (Delphinus delphis) were determined to elucidate relations between lipid composition and structure, and
The effect of four species of legume seeds on plasma cholesterol levels and faecal steroid excretion was studied in pigs. Thirty-six growing boars were randomly allocated in groups of six to six diets which they ate continuously for 42 d. The diets fed were: 1, a semi-purified (SP; control group 1)
The purpose of this investigation was to characterize differentially expressed lipids in meibum samples from patients with dry eye disease (DED) in order to better understand the underlying pathologic mechanisms.
Meibum samples were collected from postmenopausal women with DED (PW-DED; n = 5) and a
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether tear collection by flushing the ocular surface with saline (flush tears) or collection by stimulation (reflex tears) can be used as an alternative to basal tear collection for the identification and quantification of lipids in the tear film.
METHODS
Tear samples were
Male len rats at the age of 30-140 days were administered a diet with an optimum content of nutrients in dependence on their age in which the source of proteins was this: milk casein (essential acid to nonessential acid ratio E/N = 0.79), soya (defatted and without inhibitors of digestive enzymes,
The position(s) of carbon-carbon double bonds within lipids can dramatically affect their structure and reactivity and thus has a direct bearing on biological function. Commonly employed mass spectrometric approaches to the characterization of complex lipids, however, fail to localize sites of
