The fecal excretion of neutral but not acidic steroids was higher in male rats fed the trans fat than in those fed the cis fat, but the composition remained almost unchanged. Aortic production of prostacyclin and the plasma concentration of thromboxane B2 were not influenced by dietary fats, ...
Compare and contrast the differences between Alkanes, Alkenes and Alkynes. How can you distinguish between a saturated fat and an unsaturated fat at the molecular level? How do saturated and unsaturated fats differ? Discuss bonding patterns and possible sources of these fats. ...
The median daily intake of both polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats among the study population varied by approx- imately two-fold. In an analysis adjusting for age, multiple potential confounding factors and intake of saturated and trans fat, men in the highest quintile for intake of total ...
2.a prefix used in the names of chemical compounds that are geometric isomers having two identical atoms or groups attached on the same side of a molecule divided by a given plane of symmetry. Comparetrans- (def. 2). [< Latin; akin tohere] ...
Feminine trans individuals with breasts appeared to have undergone other feminizing hormonal and surgical treatments (e.g., many had female-typical fat distributions and female-typical jaw lines, features which few femi- nine trans individuals possess without hormones and surgery), although none had ...
Fat Chemistry and Terminology Fats are classified as either saturated or unsaturated. Unsaturated fats can have one double bond, called monounsaturated, or multiple double bonds, called polyunsaturated. Cis- and trans- describe whether the hydrogen atoms are on the same or opposite side of the doubl...
Renaud in the early 1990s to describe the low incidence of heart disease and obesity among the French in contrast to their relatively high-fat diet [1]. It is widely believed that consumption of red wine, rich in trans-resveratrol (trans-R) and other dietary polyphenols, is the primary ...
Nutrition A natural fatty acid, in which the carbon moieties lie on the same side of the double bond; natural fats and oils contain onlycisdouble bonds–eg, oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid with acisconfiguration. See Fatty acid; Cf Trans fatty acid. ...
We studied the hypolipidemic effects of two isoflavone metabolites initially identified in the human urine, cis-tetrahydrodaidzein (NV-04) and transtetrahydrodaidzein (NV-05) in apolipoprotein(E)-deficient mice fed with a high-fat diet. NV-04 and NV-05 were mixed in the food (200 mg per ...
Fat arrows indicate predominant cis effects over trans or cis–trans effects and stabilizing selection over disruptive selection for cis–trans effects. As a result, either At (shown in the diagram) or Aa alleles could increase expression levels. (b) Possible modes of At and Aa allele ...
