Genetic polymorphism of acid phosphatases was investigated in 11 populations of the two European Alosa species using isoelectric focusing after sample treatment with neuraminidase. Two distinct loci, ACP1 and ACP2, were detected being ACP2 polymorphic. The observed genetic diversity between the
Since the introduction of fenofibrate to European clinical practice in 1975, some 6.5 million patient-years of experience in the treatment of hyperlipidemia have been accumulated. A review of results of clinical trials shows fenofibrate to have a broad spectrum of lipid-lowering activity, reducing
Root-surface phosphatase activities were measured in natural and semi-natural shrublands across an European climatic gradient of temperature and rainfall including Wales (WL), Denmark (DK), Netherlands (NL), Hungary (HU), Italy (IT) and Spain (SP). In each site a warming experiment was conducted
BACKGROUND
Hematology and serum biochemistry values can be useful for evaluating the health of populations of captive and free-living European brown hares (Lepus europaeus). However, current information is fragmented and incomplete.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to determine normal
Propanil stress response in the eel (Anguilla anguilla) was examined. Eels were exposed to 3.16 mg/L for 72 hr and allowed to recover for 96 hr. Plasma levels of cortisol, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alkaline phosphatase (AP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose,
European lobsters (Homarus gammarus) from the Norway coast and from the Irish Sea are examined for electrophoretically detectable genetic variation in seventeen functionally different proteins. Forty-one loci encoding these proteins are homologous with loci studied in a previous survey of eight
OBJECTIVE
Genome-wide association studies have facilitated the identification of over 30 susceptibility loci for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, evidence for a number of potential susceptibility genes have not so far reached genome-wide significance in studies of Caucasian RA.
METHODS
A cohort
The acid phosphatase locus (ACP1) is a classical polymorphism that has been surveyed in hundreds of human populations worldwide. Among individuals of European ancestry, the ACP1*C allele occurs with an average frequency of approximately 0.05, whereas it is nearly absent in all other human
UNASSIGNED
The relationship between coffee consumption and mortality in diverse European populations with variable coffee preparation methods is unclear.
UNASSIGNED
To examine whether coffee consumption is associated with all-cause and cause-specific mortality.
UNASSIGNED
Prospective cohort
An increased rate of bone turnover increases risk of osteoporotic fracture later in life. The concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D that contributes to an elevated rate of bone turnover in older adults is unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the associations between
OBJECTIVE
Large hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) presents on cirrhosis or in the absence of cirrhosis. Prognostic factors include both tumor and liver factors. Evaluate clinical and tumor characteristics of a group of large resected HCC in European patients.
METHODS
Data for patients with HCC >7 cm
A 55-year-old Japanese man was hospitalized on October 5, 1999, because of high fever. Physical examination revealed neither lymphadenopathy nor hepato-splenomegaly. Laboratory data on admission showed a white blood cell count of 1,580/microliter, a hemoglobin level of 9.1 g/dl, and a platelet count
Hypophosphatasia is an inherited disorder characterised by defective bone mineralisation and deficiency of serum and tissue liver/bone/kidney alkaline phosphatase (L/B/K ALP) activity. We report the characterisation of tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) gene mutations in a series of 13
