suggesting amylase is catabolized by the kidney. The fact that pancreatic amylase infused into nephrectomized dogs still clears suggests that there are additional means of clearing amylase from blood besides the kidneys. This is supported by an increase in amylase in liver, which could be prevented...
These bioactive peptides affect the activity of various enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism insulin secretion and release of incretin hormones such as glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 that affect postprandial blood glucose levels (Patil et al., 2015). Camel ...
although these comparisons are of varying statistical significance due to our limited sample size of some ancient populations (ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test; Extended Data Fig.8aand Supplementary Table9). We next assessed how total copy numbers have changed as a function of time for each of t...
Hence, in the case of acute pancreatitis, elevated lipase levels might be explained by the release of enzymes into the peripheral blood. In the case of pancreatic cancer, it is imaginable that similar tissue destruction might lead to changes in peripheral lipase levels caused by a tumorous ...
This can be explained by the difference in kinetics between the two reactions since the reduced form of ABTS is absent from the DPPH solution, while it is always present in the ABTS solution [44]. The results of the ABTS assay of our studies are better than that reported by Rigane et ...

explained by the fact that the corresponding coding genes might be expressed at very low level or even silenced, perhaps as a result of gene mutations that prevent the translation into the mature protein [22]. This hypothesis is confirmed by the gene sequencing results obtained previously from ...
Amylase and glucosidase enzymes are the primary harmful source in the development of the chronic condition known as diabetes mellitus. The main function of these enzymes is to break the macromolecules into simple sugar units which are directly involved in the solubility of blood, hence increasing blo...
Oxidative stress is a common cause of many diseases, like diabetes, high blood pressure, preeclampsia, atherosclerosis, acute renal failure, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s [36,37,38,39]. It results from the loss of balance between oxidation and antioxidation processes, increasing free radicals in...
Human blood (2 mL, collected from healthy volunteers) was centrifuged at 2000×gfor 3.5 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the cell pellet was washed three times with PBS buffer (137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 8 mM Na2HPO4, 1.5 mM KH2PO4, pH 7.4). The red blood cell (RBC) pellet...
