Because of the known effects of ethanol on lipid metabolism, its effects on liver fatty acids were therefore studied in the hamster. After a period of 8 weeks during which hamsters had consumed water containing 10% ethanol (4 weeks) and then 15% ethanol (4 weeks), the liver was ...
The effect of ethanol-induced lipid interdigitation on the partition coefficient (Kp) of 6-propionyl-2-(dimethylamino)naphthalene (Prodan) and its two derivatives, 6-acetyl-2-(dimethylamino)naphthalene (Acdan) and 6-lauroyl-2-(dimethylamino)naphthalene (Laurdan), in L-alpha-dipalmitoylphosphatidylch...
Effect of acylethanolamides on lipid peroxidation and paraoxonase activity. Biofactors 2008;33(3):201-9.Zolese, G.; Bacchetti, T.; Masciangelo, S.; Ragni, L.; Ambrosi, S.; Ambrosini, A.; Marini, M.; Ferretti, G. Effect of acylethanolamides on lipid peroxidation and paraoxonase ...
Extensive microscopic molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to study the effects of short-chain alcohols, methanol and ethanol, on two different fully hydrated lipid bilayer systems (POPC and DPPC) in the fluid phase at 323 K. It is found that ethanol has a stronger effect on the ...
This in turn is intimately coupled to the ordering of hydrocarbon chains: we find that binding to an ethanol decreases the order of the chains. We have also determined the dependence of lipid-chain ordering on ethanol concentration and found that to be nonmonotonous. Overall, we find good ...
The oxidation of acetaldehyde (generated from the metabolism of ethanol) by oxidases such as xanthine oxidase generates free radicals which can mobilize ferritin iron, alter hepatic glutathione and produce lipid peroxidation. The stomach, a site of ethanol metabolism and rich in xanthine oxidase, was...
Effect of ethanol on rat fetal hepatocytes: Studies on cell replication, lipid peroxidation and glutathione Studies have shown that ethanol at moderate concentrations inhibits epidermal growth factor-dependent replication of fetal rat hepatocytes in culture. This... BG Devi,GI Henderson,TA Frosto,......
The anti-inflammatory effects of the ethanol extract of TWK10-fermented soymilk on lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells were examined. The ethanol extract of TWK10-fermented soymilk (100 µg/mL) significantly decreased nitric oxide production from 11.34 ± 0.74 μM to 8....
USA) was dissolved in 20 µL of ethanol, followed by the addition of 1 mL of sterile saline to prepare a solution used for intraperitoneal injection (final ethanol concentration: 2%). The control mice received an equivalent amount of vehicle (2% ethanol in sterile saline). SD mice were ad...
Earlier studies have revealed numerous lipid abnormalities in patients and animals with CRF13,14,15. However, most of these studies have focused on plasma level and metabolism of lipids and lipoproteins16,17. Lipidomics, as a branch of metabolomics, is an analytical approach to holistic ...
