Other materials dissolved in plasma are carbohydrates (glucose), cholesterol, hormones and vitamins. Cholesterol is normally transported attached to lipoproteins such as low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) and high-density lipoproteins (HDLs). For more information on cholesterol, read How Cholesterol Works. ...
glucose (or dextrose) A simple sugar: the form of carbohydrate absorbed from the alimentary canal, supplied by blood to the muscles and converted for storage to glycogen. Dictionary of Unfamiliar Words by Diagram Group Copyright © 2008 by Diagram Visual Information Limited ...
The glucose-induced hyperemia is mediated by metabolic factors, such as low tissue pO2, and adenosine release. The same metabolic factors contribute to the oleic acid-induced functional hyperemia; however, a portion of the hyperemia can be attributed to oleic acid-induced irritation of the ...
In Fig. 1E-G, it can be seen that the accumulation of fructose, glucose, and sucrose content in the treated fruit was significantly higher than those in the control during fruit ripening. Additionally, during postharvest storage, the fructose and glucose contents were significantly higher in the...
Schematic diagram showing how the amyloid beta and tau cascades can be initiated from two entry points (red boxes): (i) a decrease of cerebral blood flow (CBF) which lowers brain O2and glucose and thus upregulates the enzyme (BACE1) that makes Aβ or (ii) an increase in Aβ level due...
A blood glucose control system is configured to modify therapy provide to a subject and determine whether the modified therapy results in a statistically significant improvement in
Sézary syndrome (SS) is a rare and aggressive variant of Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma characterized by neoplastic distribution mainly involving blood, skin, and lymph-node. Although a role of the skin microenvironment in SS pathogenesis has long been hypothesized, its function in vivo is poorly chara...
The deteriorating microenvironment caused by BBB disruption and neuroinflammation perpetuates a cycle that accelerates neuronal death and white matter injury, creating a detrimental feedback loop. Importantly, the effects of BBB breakdown and neuroinflammation have enduring consequences and are significant ...
Bloodstream form cells were purified from whole rat blood using DE-52 anion exchange resin (Whatman) equilibrated to pH 8 with a bicine glucose buffer (50 mM bicine, 50 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 50 mM glucose). Mass spectrometry Two technical replicates were done each using 5 × 106 pro...
Physiological markers that may be monitored and measured by these embodiments may include, but are not limited to, glucose levels, lactate, C-reactive protein, cytokines, white blood cell counts, and gene or protein expression in-vivo. These biological markers not only provide insight into the he...
