Several enzymatic triglycerides methods measure the production or consumption of
NADH
The most likely cause for serum/plasma to appear "milky" is the presence of:
Increased chilomicrons
In the colorimetric determination of cholesterol, using the enzyme cholesterol oxidase, which the agent that oxidizes the colorless organic compound, 4aminoantipyrine, to a pink complex?
hydrogen peroxide (h202)
Which lipoprotein is the major carrier of cholesterol to peripheral tissues?
VLDL
Are increased levels of apolipoprotein A-I are associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease?
False
A patient is admitted to the hospital with intense chest pains. The patient's primary care physician requests that the emergency room doctor order several tests, including a lipid profile with cholesterol fractionation. The patient's results are as follows:Total Cholesterol = 400 mg/dL Triglycerides = 300 mg/dLHDL Cholesterol = 100 mg/dL LP Electrophoresis - pending The LDL cholesterol for this patient would be ____ mg/dL.

A patient is admitted to the hospital with intense chest pains. The patient's primary care physician requests that the emergency room doctor order several tests, including a lipid profile with cholesterol fractionation. The patient's results are as follows: Total Cholesterol = 400 mg/dL Triglycerides = 300 mg/dL HDL Cholesterol = 100 mg/dL LP Electrophoresis - pending This patient's LDL cholesterol is:
PT's cholesterol is High > 135mg/dL
As part of a lipoprotein phenotyping, it is necessary to perform total cholesterol and triglyceride determinations, as well as lipoprotein electrophoresis. The test results obtained from such studies were: Triglyceride, 340 mg/dL (reference range, < 150 mg/dL) Total cholesterol, 180 mg/dL (reference range, < 200 mg/dL) Pre-beta-lipoprotein fraction increased, Beta-lipoprotein fraction normal, No chylomicrons present, Serum appearance turbid The best explanation for these results would be that the individual exhibits a phenotype indicative of:

hyperlipoproteinemia

Which apolipoprotein, when present in an increased concentration, would be associated with a decreased risk of coronary artery disease?
Apo AI
Which results would be the most consistent with high risk for coronary heart disease?
20 mg/dL HDL cholesterol and 250 mg/dL total cholesterol
What is the presumed defect in most cases of familial type IIa hyperlipoproteinemia?
Defective receptors for LDL
Hyperchylomicronemia (type l) in childhood has been associated with
Deficiencies of apolipoprotein cII and lipoprotein lipase
Which cardiac marker is elevated for the longest period after myocardial infarction (Ml)?

tropoin T

What occurs during a state of low blood volume and decreased extracellular sodium level (as in cardiac failure)?

converted to angiotension which endues the secretior of aldosteron by the agenio gland which in terns increasion in sodium and retention of water

A hemolyzed specimen is received in the laboratory for enzyme analysis. The assay for which of the following enzyme values would be affected by hemolysis?

creatine kinase

Which isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK) is primarily found in cardiac muscle?

CK-MB

Myocardial infarction can produce a CK isoenzyme profile that is similar to:

strenuous exercise

Which cardiac markers is the first to increase after an acute myocardial infarction?

myoglobin Ck- mb

What is true regarding the clinical use of CK-MB (CK2)?

mass unit assays are more sensitive than electrophratic method

Isoforms of CK are

formed in the circulation by hydrlolsis of lycine from ck mm and ck-mb

In a nonmyocardial, as opposed to a myocardial, cause of an increased serum or plasma CK-MB, what would be expected?

increased ck-mb that is persistent

An LD flip, in assessing a possible myocardial infarction, refers to:

LD grater than LD2

Which Ml marker is the most specific and sensitive and remains elevated for 14 days or more?

troponin T

how are proteins classified?

on their shape and solubility

3 tissue sources

skeletal muscle, heart muscle, brain tissue

3 tropoin

TnT, TnI, TnC

triglycerides components
three fatty acids and one glycerol molecule

general structure of amino acid
