Objectives: In the present study we made an attempt to evaluate the association of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1(PAI-1)4G/5G polymorphism with oxidative stress markers Malondialdehyde (MDA) and High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), fibrinolysis marker PAI-1and lipid profiles. Subject and Methods: Blood was drawn and DNA extracted from 90 subjects (46 cases and 44 controls). The 4G/5G polymorphism of PAI-1 was amplified using specific primers. Amplified products were visualized by…

Amish community to allow for clear investigation of the chromosomal difference. Moving into larger group work, Crew found that women suffer less issues with low density lipoproteins (LDL) cholesterol levels, in part due to estrogen acting as a lowering agent, while the male hormone androgen, increases LDL levels. Because LDL cholesterol is influence by a number of factors, including weight (which has been found to be close to equal parts nature and nurture (Larson, & Buss, 2008)) the only way…

Viral pathogens use liver cells to replicate, then attach to their lipid droplets to to accumulate, assemble and bud off into the rest of the body. Liver produces and secretes LDL, VLDL and HDL which are taken up by every cell in the body that uses cholesterol, including the liver cells that take them up too.2 Viruses hijack these lipoproteins and use them to get into the liver cells, where they replicate, which opens up a gateway to the rest of the body. They replicate within the endoplasmic…

Blood test is an important test used to find out about the health condition of our organs. Through blood tests, we are able to learn whether we have diseases like cancer, cardiac diseases, diabetes and certain genetic conditions. It also allows doctors to know if the medication or diagnosis a patient is going through is working. There are a few parts shown in a regular blood test report. The first section is the Complete Blood Count (CBC) test. This test gives us information about the types of…

Cardiovascular Disease: The Forms, The Risks, and The Prevention The heart is an amazing and essential organ to the human body. It pumps blood in and out, through a complex system consisting of arteries, venioles, and veins. This system is known as the cardiovascular system. The heart delivers blood to the organs and tissues in the body. Without a heart, basic biology tells us, we die. The heart we are born with is the heart that we must take care of, if we want to live a long life. One…

OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS 1) Structure Figure 1.1 The omega-3 fatty acids are also known as ω-3 fatty acids or n-3 fatty acids which contain a long chain of polyunsaturated fatty acids and the chain ranges from 18 to 22 carbon atoms (Collins J.J., 2010). The fatty acids have two ends; the carboxylic acid end (-COOH) and the methyl end (-CH3). The carboxylic acid end is considered the starting of chain which is “alpha” and methyl chain is considered as the tail of the long chain…

There are many ways to find a diagnosis in modern medicine. One of the ways to do this is by using IV contrast in the body. The IV contrast demonstrates internal anatomy, but there are some side-effects with using this imaging tool. Diabetic patients who are taking certain medications can be harshly affected from the IV contrast going into their body. "The diabetic medication that is most known for causing bodily harm is metformin. Metformin is in the drug class biguanide, which decreases the…
