glucose (sugar) levels in the blood. Insulin is released by pancreatic beta cells in the islets of Langerhan in response to elevated levels of nutrients in the blood. Insulin triggers the uptake of glucose, fatty acids and amino acids into liver, adipose tissue and muscle and promotes the storage of these nutrients in the form of glycogen, lipids and protein respectively. Failure to uptake and store nutrients results in diabetes. (Hooper, 2018) Type-1 diabetes is characterized by the inability…
hot-icy showers are a must for the breast beauty and health. However, professionals claim that a hot water bath also has good effects on the size of breasts. Due to the excessive build-up of adipose tissue, breasts tend to lose their firmness and shape over the years, but hot water successfully melts away the adipose and keeps firmer and better shaped breasts. To achieve a better result in breast enhancement, you can try the following…
large number of tissues that may be used in measuring the intake of fatty acids in relation to assessing the sufficiency of these nutrients in the diet. These tissues include adipose tissues, organs and erythrocyte membranes (Arab, 2003, Baylin et al., 2005, Harris et al., 2004). Harris et al. (2004) determined the correlation between n-3 PUFA levels in the heart with…
about the latest and greatest use got stem cells but they are now developing a technique that can repair and heal tissue that has been damaged. They have figured out that this is possible through converting fat cells into stem cells. What is normal for stem cells is that it is injected into the bone marrow. Stem cells are somewhat easy source but for the stem cells to help to repair tissue, muscles, and organs. Researchers say that these stem cells can help cure carnivorous dieses. Stem cells…
Mummification is a modification of putrefaction characterised by the dehydration of the tissues converting the body into a leathery mass of skin and tendons surrounding the bone. The internal organs are often decomposed but preserved. Skin shrinkage may produce large artefactual splits mimmicking injuries, particularly seen in the groins, around the neck, and the armpits. Mummification develops in conditions of dry heat, especially when there are air currents,e.g. in a desert or inside a…
apparently leads to nuclear stability loss and inability to perform functions in its entirety. The mutations in LMNA lead to at least 10 clinically distinct phenotypes, termed laminopathies, affecting different tissues such as cardiac and skeletal muscle, cutaneous, nervous and adipose tissue. There is no explicit relation between syndrome development and the mutation domain localization. A number of hot spots were described in the LMNA, but the major mutations common for laminopathies were not…
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a narrowing of the small blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to the heart. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. While the symptoms and signs of coronary artery disease are noted in the advanced state of disease, most individuals with coronary artery disease show no evidence of disease for decades as the disease progresses before the first onset of symptoms, often a "sudden" heart attack, finally arises (Gaziano et al.,…
1. Momordica charanti, also known as bitter melon, is a green colored vegetable/fruit that has a bumpy and rough surface to it. It is an unripe fruit that resembles a small cucumber and is used as a vegetable and tastes very bitter. People often use the roots, leaves, seeds, and the seeds oil as part of cooking purposes and often use it for medicinal purposes. Bitter melon is commonly found and used in Asia, South America, India, and East Africa. 2. Many people use bitter melon for multiple…
These variables could provide answers and understanding of how serum vitamin D affects the cardiorespiratory system. Such as, there is a possibility of vitamin D being released from adipose tissue during physical activity into the bloodstream, similar to that of the fatty acids which are released from adipose tissue (Farrell & Willis,…
non-esterified fatty acid liberation. These lipids are packed and released into the blood stream by a type of lipoprotein called a VLDL (very-low density lipoproteins). VLDL is produced by the liver its purpose is to transfer fat from the liver to other tissues of the body. As fat enters the liver, the liver then utilizes the fat and releases some of it as VLDL.VLDL is high in triglycerides with a low proportion of cholesterol esters, and containd an intergral lipoprotein called apo B-100. As…
