Changes and correlation between the levels of plasma lysophosphatidic acid,acid phospholipid,low density lipoprotein and carotid artery atherosclerosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction / 临床神经病学杂志

Objective To investigate the changes and the correlation between the levels of plasma lysophosphalidic acid(LPA),acid phospholipid(AP),low density lipoprotein(LDL) and carotid artery atherosclerosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods The levels of plasma LPA,AP and LDL were examined in 67 ACI patients and 30 normal controls,the carotid arteries were investigated with B mode ultrosand.Results The levels of plasma LPA,AP and LDL were higher in ACI group than those in the normal control group(all P

THE ANTIATHEROSCLEROTIC EFFECT OF THE EXTRACT FROM GRAPE SEED IN C57BL/6J MICE / 营养学报

Objective: To investigate the antiatherosclerotic effect of the extract from grape seed in C57BL/6J mice. Method: The mice were fed with atherosclerotic diet for 20 w and then with basic diet or different dosage of grape seed extract for 4 w. The blood samples were examined for blood lipid. The sections of aorta were examined and scored microscopically. Results: After fed with atherogenic diet for 20 w, the aortic score was 7.2?1.3 and TG, Chol and MDA in serum were significantly increased. After fed with the extract of grape seed for 4 w, the aortic score was reduced to 6.0?1.2, and TG, TC, and MDA levels also decreased. Conclusion: The extract of grape seed has antiatherosclerotic effect.
