Comparison of physical and chemical characteristics of collagen from the skin of cod (Gadus macrocephaius)

Acid and pepsin-soluble collagen (ASC and PSC, respectively) were extracted from cod (Gadus macrocephaius) skin, and yields of 37.36 and 55.96% were obtained for ASC and PSC, respectively. The total yield of ASC and PSC was 93.92%, based on the lyophilized dry weight, which is higher than that obtained from other sources. Electrophoresis revealed that both ASC and P.. Read More»

    S.Y. Shu, M.J. Zhang, H.Q. Cheng, S.J. Tang, W.L. Chen, S.R. Wu,Y. Lin and Q.S. Chen

Non-syndromic cleft of the lip and/or palate (NSCLP) is a very common birth defect; the poliovirus receptor-like 1 gene (PVRL1) has been identified as a genetic risk factor for NSCLP in patients from Norway, the Philippines, and South America. Given the considerable variation in allele frequencies across these geographical regions, this study explored the relationship between NSCLP and mutation.. Read More»

Effects of lovastatin on hepatic expression of the low-density lipoprotein receptor in nephrotic rats.

    L.X. Wei, L. Chen, W.M. Wang, X.H. Zhang, J.B. Wu, S.F. Liang and G.Y. Shu

To investigate the effect of the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor lovastatin on the expression of the receptor for hepatic low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in a rat model with kidney disease, and to identify the mechanisms in statin treatment of nephrotic syndrome with hyperlipidemia, a rat model with nephrotic syndrome was established. Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were .. Read More»
