Diets with customary levels of fat from plant origin may reverse coronary artery disease.

The primary cause of death worldwide is heart disease and the most common type of heart disease is coronary artery disease. While coronary artery disease is treated with medications, it responds to lifestyle interventions. A low-fat plant-based diet was designed for reversing coronary artery disease and it is effective in reversing the disease.

Characterization of transverse tubule membrane proteins: tentative identification of the Mg-ATPase.

Vesiculated fragments of chicken skeletal muscle transverse tubule (TT) membranes were analyzed for their content of loosely associated and integral membrane proteins. Of particular interest was the identification of the magnesium-stimulated ATPase (Mg-ATPase), which is characteristically located in native isolated TT vesicles of chicken skeletal muscle [R. A.
