    Two Immunological Worlds: Antibody Molecules and Lymphoid Cell-Surfaces. An Overview of the Mosbach Colloquium

    My assignment in this meeting is to summarize the proceedings of the past two days. Most of the talks were themselves summaries. To compress them further might well result in gibberish. Nevertheless, I intend ...

    Effects of Low Dose Phytosterols on Cholesterol Absorption in Man

    The plasma cholesterol lowering action of phytosterols has been known for many years (1 – 3). It has generally been thought that large doses of phytosterols are required to obtain a significant reduction in pl...

    Sitosterol in Type II Hyperlipoproteinemia

    In 1951, PETERSON reported that the increase of plasma cholesterol levels in chickens caused by cholesterol feeding can be prevented by including 1 % soybean sterols in the diet (18). Since then, numerous inve...

    Molecular Association of Lipids and Proteins in the Plasma Lipoproteins: A Review

    In blood, the plasma lipoproteins represent the major vehicle for the transport of triglyceride, cholesterol, both free and esterified, and phospholipid. In addition, these macromolecular complexes are also su...

    Reversible Activation-Deactivation of Hormone-Sensitive Lipase and Observations on its Relation to Lipoprotein Lipase

    The rate of release of free fatty acids (FFA) from adipose tissue is stimulated by catecholamines, glucagon, ACTH, and many other so-called lipolytic hormones.The increase in FFA release from intact tissue cor...
