NOS1AP is an adaptor protein and its SNP rs12742393 was associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, it remains uncertain whether NOS1AP plays a role in regulation of insulin sensitivity. Hepatic insulin resistance contributed to the development of T2D. Here

Studies performed on the interactions and reactions of compounds in the bidimensional state, essentially in monolayers and Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers, with substances in the aqueous subphase are reported. More precisely, the following is illustrated: (i) interactions between acid amphiphiles and prevalently

Fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs), esterification products of ethanol and fatty acids, have been found selectively in the organs damaged by ethanol abuse, and on that basis have been implicated as contributors to ethanol-induced organ damage. To directly assess the

Viability in vivo of novel platelet components cannot be readily determined in human transfusions. Elaboration of valid animal models may be useful for this purpose. Viability of platelet concentrates (PCs) WBC reduced before storage was determined by flow cytometry in

Alcoholism, clinical and experimental research, 21(2), 286-292 (1997-04-01)
The possibility that fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs), esterification products of fatty acids and ethanol, are mediators of ethanol-induced organ damage was suggested by an autopsy study in which individuals who died while acutely intoxicated were found to have FAEEs
