Journal ArticleDOI

On determining the extent of side-pool synthesis in a three-pool model for whole body cholesterol kinetics

TL;DR: Whole body cholesterol turnover is well described by a three-pool model, which has eight unknown parameters: three masses, three synthesis rates, and two intercompartmental exchange rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholesteryl ester turnover in human plasma lipoproteins during cholestyramine and clofibrate therapy

TL;DR: The results suggest that neither drug has a strongly selective effect on the turnover of one particular cholesteryl ester, or in each of the three classes of plasmalipoproteins in one particular plasma lipoprotein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stereochemistry at the center of squalene during its biosynthesis from farnesyl pyrophosphate and subsequent conversion to cholesterol.

TL;DR: Determination of the stereochemistry and distribution of the tritium label in cholesterol confirmed the fact that the hydride ion transfer is a stereospecific reaction, and allowed assignment of the absolute configuration of the asymmetrical carbon atom formed by introduction of the triphosphopyridine label.
Book ChapterDOI

Genetic Studies on a Human Plasma Transthyretin (Prealbumin) Variant Associated with Familial Amyloidotic Polyneuropathy

TL;DR: Analysis of FAP patients with familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy who are carriers of an abnormal transthyretin- TTR indicated that TTR appears to constitute a direct and true genetic marker of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of chlorpropamide upon postpancreatectomy and spontaneous diabetes

TL;DR: Despite the current uncertainty regarding the mechanism of the hypoglycemic effect of the aryl sulfonylureas, the observation of their failure to lower the blood sugar in severe alloxan diabetes in animals' and in depancreatized animals remains unchallenged.
