    Assessing cross-resistance within the pyrethroids in terms of their interactions with key cytochrome P450 enzymes and resistance in vector populations

    It is important to understand whether the potential impact of pyrethroid resistance on malaria control can be mitigated by switching between different pyrethroids or whether cross-resistance within this insect...

    Phospholipase A2-catalysed modification of plasma low density lipoproteins caused reduction of hypercholesterolemic rabbit plasma cholesterolin vivo

    Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) hydrolyses certain phospholipids of low density lipoproteins. PLA2-treated LDL is known to be rapidly cleared from plasma. A prototype plasma filter containing immobilizedCrotalus atrox PL...

    Effects of Sitosterol Therapy on Plasma Lipid and Lipoprotein Concentrations

    The ideal drug for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia should be effective, free of subjective side-effects and of objective toxicity. The cholesterol analog, beta-sitosterol (Fig. 1), comes close to that id...
