The effects of CPe-III on hyperlipidemic mice were investigated, along with molecular docking and dynamics analyses between CPe-III and CETP. This study was conducted in order to explore the lipid metabolism potential and mechanism of CPe-III. CPe-III significantly (P<0.05) reduced serum total

BACKGROUND The lack of estrogen in postmenopausal women is a key risk factor for disorders of lipid metabolism and for obesity. Except in cases where estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) is being used, chickpea peptides (ChPs) may be a potential candidate for treating hyperlipidemia. RESULTS In

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the scientific evidence on guggul for hyperlipidemia including expert opinion, folkloric precedent, history, pharmacology, kinetics/dynamics, interactions, adverse effects, toxicology, and dosing. METHODS Electronic searches were conducted in nine databases, 20 additional

Serum and tissue lipid levels were studied in rabbits in whom egg yolk was used to induce atherosclerosis and Bengal gram was supplemented in the diet as a lipodiatic agent. Monthly serological and tissue studies were done to assess the levels of total cholesterol, triglycerides and phospholipids

Serum lipids and lipoproteins were studied in rabbits fed on egg yolk supplemented diet to induce hypercholesterolemia. Bengal gram and synthetically pure isoflavone Biochanin A have been used as lipodiatic agents in this study. Rabbits were divided into four groups: Group A were fed on egg yolk

Hypocholesterolemic effect of amaranth seeds was studied in male wistar strain albino rats as against Bengal gram. The results showed that liver weights were significantly higher in animals with hypercholesterolemia inducing diet. Contrarily, weights of other organs like brain, kidney, testes and

A 35 kDa rabbit erythrocyte agglutinating lectin from the seeds of Cicer arietinum was purified and designated as CAL. The lectin was inhibited by fetuin and N-acetyl-d-galactosamine at a concentration of 20 and 50 mM respectively, but not by simple mono or oligosaccharides. CAL is active between pH

An assay was developed to evaluate the bioavailability of dietary carbohydrate by slope-ratio analysis of weight gain and plasma ketones of rats fed a carbohydrate-free diet supplemented with glucose as a standard and selected food items, pure carbohydrates and polyols. The diet was based on 35%

This feeding trial evaluated the influence of a diet containing heated chickpea in a dietary induced rat model of hypercholesterolemia in order to assess some possible protective and therapeutic effects on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism disorders as found with other legumes. Rats fed a diet

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is a legume of the family Fabaceae, subfamily Faboideae. In Egypt, chickpea seeds are usually consumed at raw green and tender stage, or in the form of mature dry seeds. In our previous study, 'Giza 1' seeds exhibited stronger antioxidant activity and higher total phenol
