OBJECTIVE Clinical cerebral-fat embolism shows both reversible and irreversible changes. We used MR imaging to investigate the reversibility of embolized lesions induced with a fat-emulsion technique and to evaluate the histologic findings. METHODS A fat emulsion was made with 0.05 mL of triolein

Tumour necrosis factor alpha (cachectin) was administered to virgin, lactating and litter-removed rats, and subsequent disposal of an oral [1-14C]triolein (glycerol tri[1-14C]oleate) load examined. Absorption of the lipid and 14CO2 production were significantly depressed in all three groups.

A comprehensive statistical analysis had shown a significant correlation between the incidence of myocardial lesions in male albino rats and the concentration of certain dietary fatty acids. To test this result under controlled conditions, male rats were fed for 16 weeks diets containing 20% by

OBJECTIVE Peripancreatic fat necrosis occurs frequently in necrotising pancreatitis. Distinguishing markers from mediators of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is important since targeting mediators may improve outcomes. We evaluated potential agents in human pancreatic necrotic collections (NCs),

Acrolein is a highly toxic, reactive, and irritating aldehyde that occurs as a product of organic pyrolysis, as a metabolite of a number of compounds, and as a residue in water when used for the control of aquatic organisms. It is an intermediate in the production of acrylic acid, DL-methionine, and

The intravenous injection of triolein in the rabbit, besides general consequences in some viscera (functional ischemic necrosis of the right ventricle, systemic cerebral and kidney embolisms), induces in the lung non specific reactions similar to those observed after other pulmonary agressions. Yet,

Because obesity, insulin resistance, and hyperlipidemia are often associated, and recent evidence suggests that the cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) may influence the activity of insulin in various target tissues, the present study was designed to see whether TNF was also associated with

OBJECTIVE Dietary intake of the natural omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has been implicated in protecting patients with viral hepatitis B or C from developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Little is known about the effects of DHA on established solid tumors. Here we describe a

The present study was undertaken in rats to clarify whether endotoxin hepatotoxicity can be modified by phagocytic activity of the reticuloendothelial system. Pretreatment with cortisone acetate, diethylstilbestrol, methyl palmitate, triolein or gadolinium chloride markedly improved the mortality

In addition to decreased insulin sensitivity, diabetes is a pathological condition associated with increased inflammation. The ω-3 fatty acids have been proposed as anti-inflammatory agents. Thus, the major goal of this study was to analyze the effects of fatty acid supplementation on both insulin

The toxicity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and related compounds in birds has been well-established in laboratory and field studies. Observed effects of TCDD and related chemicals in birds include developmental deformities, reproductive failure, liver damage, wasting syndrome and

Male weanling rats were fed soybean or low erucic acid rapeseed oils alone or in combination with cocoa butter (a source high in saturates) or triolein for 16 weeks. All diets contained 20% by weight of the test oils. The apparent digestibility of all diets and test oils increased with the age of

Viburnum opulus L. fruit is a rich source of phenolic compounds that may be involved in the prevention of metabolic diseases. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of Viburnum opulus fresh juice (FJ) and juice purified by solid-phase extraction (PJ) on the adipogenesis
