Proliferative activity and lipid composition (phospholipids and gangliosides) were studied in rat hepatoma-27 transplanted subcutaneously or intrahepatically (as models for primary and metastasizing tumors). The mitotic index of subcutaneously transplanted hepatoma far exceeded that of the intrahepatically transplanted tumor. The overall amounts of both phospholipids and gangliosides increased appreciably in the subcutaneously growing hepatoma (in contrast to the intrahepatically growing tumor) in comparison to the control hepatic tissue. The ganglioside composition in the tumors differs from that in the liver: ganglioside GD3 appears, whereas gangliosides GD1b and GT1b decrease in amount in the intrahepatic tumor compared to the control liver and disappear in the subcutaneously transplanted hepatoma. In both tumor types, the amounts of both phosphatidylethanolamine and sphingomyelin exceed the control values. Comparison of these results with previously reported data concerning the phospholipid and ganglioside composition in the regenerating rat liver indicates that the difference in the lipid composition between the subcutaneously and intrahepatically growing hepatomas-27 is due to their different proliferative status and also their microenvironment.

The pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) possesses an exocrine gland associated with its false gill slit pigmentation pattern. The cervical gill slit gland is a compound tubuloalveolar gland that produces a holocrine secretion and displays maturational changes in size and secretory histology. While the morphology of the cervical gill slit gland has been described in detail, to date, the chemical composition of its secretion remains uncharacterized.

Hyperuricemia (HUA) is a metabolic abnormality syndrome caused by disorders of purine metabolism. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (LHR) for the risk of developing HUA. We extracted data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) database from 2011 to 2016.

Background: Formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has now become the most widespread chronic liver disease worldwide. The primary goal of this study is to assess the ability of different indexes (including VAI, TyG, HOMA-IR, BMI, LAP, WHtR, TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR) to predict MASLD in individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), particularly within the Chinese population.
Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 1,742 patients with T2DM, recruited from the Metabolic Management Centers (MMC) at Suzhou Municipal Hospital.
Aquaculture is one of the world's fastest-growing sectors in food production but with multiple challenges related to animal handling and infections. The disease caused by infectious salmon anemia virus (ISAV) leads to outbreaks of local epidemics, reducing animal welfare, and causing significant economic losses. The composition of feed has shifted from marine ingredients such as fish oil and fish meal towards a more plant-based diet causing reduced levels of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).

While the effect of time-of-day (morning versus evening) on hormones, lipids and lipolysis has been studied in relation to meals and exercise, there are no studies that have investigated the effects of time-of-day on ice bath induced hormone and lipidome responses. In this crossover-designed study, a group of six women and six men, 26 ± 5 years old, 176 ± 7 cm tall, weighing 75 ± 10 kg, and a BMI of 23 ± 2 kg/mhad an ice bath (8-12 °C for 5 min) both in the morning and evening on separate days. Absence from intense physical exercise, nutrient intake and meal order was standardized in the 24 h prior the ice baths to account for confounders such as diet or exercise.
