Background High-quality methods for lipoprotein characterization are warranted in studies on various metabolic diseases.Materials and methods An automated system for size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) of lipoproteins using commercially... more
The effects of the administration of 50 mg of guggulipid or placebo capsules twice daily for 24 weeks were compared as adjuncts to a fruit- and vegetable-enriched prudent diet in the management of 61 patients with hypercholesterolemia (31... more
Summary We used a new and remarkably simple method to examine the extent of in vivo lipoprotein glycation in type II diabetic patients with atherosclerosis and diabetic patients with no complications. Serum glycated lipoprotein levels... more
Background: Risk of cardiovascular disease is assessed, in part, by laboratory measurement of the concentra- tions of several lipoproteins. b-Quantification is a method of lipoprotein measurement that uses ultracen- trifugation to... more
This metabolic study was designed to investi- gate the effects of mycoprotein on blood lipids. Mycoprotcin is a food produced by continuous fermentation of Fusarium graminearum (Schwabe) on a carbohydrate substrate. Iwo groups of subjects... more
Aronia melanocrpa fruit juice (AMFJ) used in our experiment was very rich in phenolic substances (709.3 mg gallic acid equivalents/100 ml juice). Anthocyanins (106.8 mg cyanidin-3-glucoside equivalents/100 ml juice) were the main... more
Macrophages isolated from a variety of organs in several animal species exhibit high affinity binding sites that recognize chemically modified proteins. One of these binding sites recognizes human plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL) in... more
The aim of this study was to investigate the adhesive phenotype of the human intestinal isolate Bifidobacterium bifidum MIMBb75 to human colon carcinoma cell lines. We have previously shown that the adhesion of this strain to Caco-2 cells... more
