Blood Analysis. The level of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) was determined by the hexokinase-G-6-PDH method; fasting plasma insulin (FPI) by the chemiluminescent immunoassay method; aspartate aminotrans- ferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (γGT)...
The chi-square test results for microsatellite and mtDNA clustering results were both significant (microsatellite: Fig. 4 A Bar graphs indicating the frequency of Y. pestis DFR genomovars in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Correlation plot between genetic diversity and human plague ...
(C) Insulin levels were measured during the OGTT; (D) AUC of insulin level during OGTT was calculated; (E) Blood glucose measurements over insulin tolerance test (ITT) was performed on fasted mice for 6 h at 6 weeks of treatment; (F) Homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (...
In order to determine LPS concentrations in two protein solutions that were treated with LPS removal beads, the LAL test was performed. Both protein solutions contained less than 9 pg/ml LPS. Nakagawa et al. [36] stimulated whole blood with endotoxin (LPS) in order to determine the minimum ...
LPL is a key enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of TG in chylomicrons and leads to a decrease in blood lipid levels. The lack of LPL transcriptional repressors in the liver can protect mice from hyperlipidemia and hepatic TG deposition caused by HFDs (Li et al., 2022). BAs increased ...
One hundred clinical genomic DNA samples collected from blood were analyzed by means of HTS-PTT (25 BRCA1 mutants, 25 BRCA2 mutants, and 50 normal controls). The mutation status of the samples had been previously determined by conventional gel-based PTT. HTS-PTT results are shown in Figure ...
Figure 6. Removal of p16-Expressing Cells in 1.5-Year-Old Mice Results in Disruption of Blood-Tissue Barriers and Subsequent Fibrosis (A) Analysis of p16/EGFP- and CD31-expressing cells in the liver of 1.5-year-old p16-CreERT2/R26-mTmG mice treated with tamoxifen. (B) Photomicrographs of...
(https://www.gtexportal.org/home/) from whole blood, lymphocytes, and EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid cells to determine the presence ofcisexpression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), adjusted for principal components. We explored possible effects of variation at rs116446171 on secondary RNA structure ...
Obesity upsurges the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, primarily heart failure and coronary heart disease. Chia seeds have a high concentration of dietary fiber and increased concentrations of anti-inflammatoryand antioxidant compounds. They are
10 ml of blood sample (from volunteer) was drawn, and DNA was extracted from the sample by using QIAamp DNA Blood Mini Kit (Qiagen). The extracted DNA was numbered as YH-1. 10 μg of the DNA sample was used as starting material, and a library was constructed according to the process...
