The Regulatory Roles of Peptide IRW on angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) in High-Fat Diet-Induced Mice and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
DownloadFall 2023
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) refers to a cluster of various risk factors commonly associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and diabetes. Up-regulation of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), a key member of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), is generally protective against CVDs and...

The role of auxin and indole glucosinolates in defense against clubroot infection in Brassica napus
DownloadFall 2023
Abstract Clubroot, caused by the obligate parasite Plasmodiophora brassicae, is one of the most damaging diseases of the Brassicaceae. Glucosinolates (GSLs) are a group of defense-related secondary metabolites in cruciferous plants that have been associated with clubroot disease. The breakdown of...

The role of de novo phosphatidylcholine synthesis in the gut-liver axis and intestinal homeostasis
DownloadSpring 2023
The intestine and liver are in constant communication to maintain lipid processes and to prevent disease states such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and colitis. Phosphatidylcholine (PC) can be synthesized in the liver by the CDP-choline pathway or the phosphatidylethanolamine...

The role of ezetimibe and simvastatin in modulating intestinal cholesterol transport, chylomicron profile and chylomicron-remnant uptake by the arterial wall in a rodent model of the metabolic syndrome
DownloadFall 2010
Intestinally derived chylomicron remnants (CM-r) may contribute to atherogenic dyslipidemia during the Metabolic Syndrome (Mets). However, the combined effects of ezetimibe (EZ) and simvastatin (SV) on post-prandial (PP) dyslipidemia during MetS remains unclear, nor is it known whether the...
