A patient with sea-blue histiocytosis in spleen and bone marrow with an accompanying hyperlipidaemia is described. The hyperlipidaemia was due to an increase in "free" cholesterol, lecithin, and triglycerides. Despite these findings lecithin-cholesterol acyl transferase activity was normal. Although
Histological and biochemical procedures were employed to study liver histomorphology and plasma levels of aspartate aminotransferases (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), triglyceride (TRIG), cholesterol (CHOL), glucose (GLU) and total protein (TP) in cultured (CSB) and wild sea bass (WSB)
A case of cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD) was found by liver biopsy in a 5-year-old boy. Hepatosplenomegaly, varying elevations of serum transaminases and hyperlipoproteinemia, type IIb, were detected clinically. The liver tissue was yellow. The cytoplasm of hepatocytes and Kupffer cells
1. An analysis was made of lipids extracted from the spermatozoa of the sea urchins, Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus and Anthocidaris crassispina. 2. Nearly all the lipids from both species consisted of phospholipids (about 80%) and cholesterol (about 14%). Triglyceride and cholesterol ester were present
Fishing in distant waters for months may induce physiological stress.
To assess the physiological stress reactions in fishermen working for 2-3 months continuously in 6-h shifts on trawlers in the Barents Sea.
The crew of five trawlers fishing in the Barents Sea from January to April 2004 were
Thyroid hormones, in particular 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine or T3, are involved in multiple physiological processes in mammals such as protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism. However, the metabolic actions of T3 in fish are still not fully elucidated. We therefore tested the effects of T3 on Sparus
Lipids play one of the leading roles in ensuring the physiological needs and quality of human life. Therefore, assessment of traditional and new types of aquatic organisms from the standpoint of nutritional value of lipids is an urgent task nowadays. The aim of the work was to study Sea pilots must be capable of carrying out their work in all situations. Thus, they must not have any disease or defect, that could impair their job performance. By periodic medical examinations attempts are made to ensure their working capacity. In most countries these examinations are carried out
The potential role of omega-3 fatty acids in the prevention of atherosclerotic disease in the nondiabetic population currently engenders interest, enthusiasm, and controversy. Some apparently beneficial effects of omega-3 fatty acids on platelet function, eicosanoid formation, plasma triglyceride
Carbohydrate metabolism in mussels shows two phases separated seasonally. During summer and linked to food supply, carbohydrates, mainly glycogen, are accumulated in the mantle tissue. During winter, mantle glycogen decreases concomitantly with an increase in triglyceride synthesis. In spring, after
Polysaccharides (AJP) were prepared from Apostichopus japonicus by protease hydrolysis method. Antioxidant activity in vitro and antihyperlipidemic activity in vivo was investigated. Chemical composition analysis indicated that AJP was mainly composed of glucosamine, galactosamine, glucuronic acid,
Sea cucumber is widely consumed as a putative functional food. It contains many biologically-active substances, but only limited research on its properties in vivo has been done. The effects of different meals containing Isostichopus badionotus, a sea cucumber from southeast Mexico, on growth
An adult patient is described with hepatomegaly and sea-blue histiocytes in the bone marrow. A diagnosis of cholesterol ester storage disease was established following enzyme and lipid analyses on liver biopsy and cultured skin fibroblasts. Acid esterase activity was deficient (approx. 5% of
A near maximal bicycle exercise test revealed a prevalence of positive exercise ECG's of 8/68 among apparently healthy sea-pilots and 93/2014 among apparently healthy men of comparable age in Oslo (P less than 0.01). This difference could not be explained in terms of differences in commonly accepted
The osmoregulatory action of 17beta-estradiol (E2) was examined in the euryhaline teleost Sparus auratas. In a first set of experiments, fish were injected once with vegetable oil containing E2 (1, 2 and 5 microg/g body weight), transferred 12h after injection from sea water (SW, 38 ppt salinity) to
