breast neoplasms/triglyceride

The serum levels of vitamin A (retinol), vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol), cholesterol and triglycerides were studied in a group of 40 women who had been diagnosed as having breast cancer, and they were compared to the levels found in a group of 30 healthy women. Our results indicate that the only

BACKGROUND Apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4) allele is an important risk factor for breast cancer and affects clearance of chylomicron remnants. Tamoxifen therapy increases serum triglyceride levels and sometimes inducing severe hypertriglyceridemia in breast cancer patients. METHODS Thirty-three women with

The course of serum concentrations of cholesterol and triglycerides was investigated in patients with advanced breast cancer. The patients studied were divided into two groups according to their clinical status: group-I consisted of 51 patients who already had metastases at the start of the

The data presented here is related to the research article entitled "Lipid droplets induced by secreted phospholipase A2 and unsaturated fatty acids protect breast cancer cells from nutrient and lipotoxic stress" by E. Jarc et al., Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1863 (2018) 247-265. Elevated uptake of

OBJECTIVE The aromatase inhibitor letrozole effectively treats breast cancer by decreasing estrogen levels in postmenopausal women. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the effect of letrozole on plasma lipids, triglyceride lipase (TGL), and estradiol levels in women with metastatic

Lipids and lipoproteins have been associated with breast cancer risk; however, published results have been inconsistent. To clarify these associations, we measured fasting lipids in women undergoing breast biopsies. A case-control study examined the association of fasting levels of lipids with

This study addresses the correlation between the levels of estradiol (E2), total lipids, triglycerides, and cholesterol in serum and tissue samples of age-matched patients with benign (40 cases; 16 were premenopausal and 24 were postmenopausal) and malignant (50 cases; 17 were premenopausal and 33

A case-control study investigating the association between plasma lipids and breast cancer was conducted among women aged 30-80 in Buffalo, NY. All eligible women from a large breast clinic and two area physicians' offices were requested to participate over a one-year period. Subjects completed a

The association between total serum cholesterol and triglycerides and the incidence rate of breast cancer has been examined in 242 incident cases of breast cancer that developed among 24,329 Norwegian women during 11-14 years of follow-up. At the time of lipid measurement they were between 35 and 51

Objective: Inhibition of lipid metabolism in breast cancer has been suggested as an effective approach for cancer therapy. Saffron-derived crocetin (Crt) and crocin (Cro) with the known anticancer activity, have shown hypolipidemic effect

OBJECTIVE Although dyslipidemia has been documented to be associated with several types of cancer including breast cancer, it remains uncertainty the prognostic value of serum lipid in breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the association between the preoperative plasma lipid

BACKGROUND High triglycerides and low levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol are observed to promote tumor growth. However, whether breast cancer heterogeneity may explain the contradictory influence of triglycerides and cholesterol observed on breast cancer prognosis remains

Tamoxifen (TAM) and estrogen increase serum triglyceride (TG) levels, sometimes inducing severe hypertriglyceridemia and possibly contributing to death. Decreasing the dose of estrogen in estrogen replacement therapy may minimize its adverse effects, including the hypertriglyceridemia. The serum TG,

Epidemiological studies show conflicting results regarding the link between serum triglyceride and the risk of prostate cancer and breast cancer. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis of prospective studies to clarify this association. We searched PubMed, EMBASE, the Chinese Biomedical Database

The purpose of this study was to examine the lactogenic response of human mammary cancer cell lines to hormones in vitro. Progesterone was found to stimulate the incorporation of 14C from [14C]acetate into triglycerides (TG) and to promote accumulation of TG with a fatty acid composition similar to
