Extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) has been hypothesized to have chemopreventive effects on breast cancer, unlike high corn oil (HCO) diets that stimulate it. We have investigated mechanisms of these differential modulatory actions on experimental mammary cancer. In 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene
The data presented in this work revealed that in Zea mays the exogenously added auxins indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and 1-napthaleneacetic acid (NAA), promoted the establishment of subsidiary cell mother cell (SMC) polarity and the subsequent subsidiary cell formation, while treatment with auxin
A quantitative trait locus for kernel row number, qKRN5, was dissected into two tightly linked loci, qKRN5a and qKRN5b. Fine mapping, comparative analysis of nucleotide sequences and gene expression established the endonuclease/exonuclease/phosphatase family protein-encoding gene Zm00001d013603 as a
Changes in lipid composition were followed as a proplastid develops into a chloroplast. Methods were devised for the isolation of developing proplastids from sections of five different ages from the same 7-day-old maize (Zea mays var. Kelvedon Glory) leaf. Electron micrographs illustrate the
We have studied the effects of semisynthetic diets containing 5% by weight (12% of the energy) of either olive oil (70% oleic acid, OA) or corn oil (58% linoleic acid), or fish oil (Max EPA, containing about 30% eicosapentaenoic, EPA C 20:5 n-3, plus docosahexaenoic, DHA C 22:6 n-3, acids, and less
CONCLUSIONS
Male rabbits were fed for six months diets comprising cholesterol (0.1%) and either butter alone (10%) or butter (5%) plus cacao butter, coconut oil, olive oil, or corn oil (4.5%). These fats could be classified according to their atherogenicity as follows, in decreasing order: butter,
Male New Zealand white rabbits were pair-fed high fat, soy protein-dextrose diets containing either hydrogenated coconut oil (HC) or safflower oil (SA) for 155 days. A third group was fed a low fat, soy protein-dextrose-corn oil diet (SD) previously shown to be normocholesterolemic in the rabbit.
Lipid compositions of undifferentiated maize (Zea mays) chloroplasts, capable of fixing CO(2), were compared with the lipid compositions of mature chloroplasts, which do not fix CO(2), located in both the mesophyll and bundle sheath cells. The major lipids found in all three chloroplast types were
