The effect of newborn vitamin A supplementation on infant immune functions: trial design, interventions, and baseline data.

Shaikh Meshbahuddin Ahmad et al.

Contemporary clinical trials, 39(2), 269-279 (2014-10-02)

Ext1 heterozygosity causes a modest effect on postprandial lipid clearance in humans.

Hans L Mooij et al.

Journal of lipid research, 56(3), 665-673 (2015-01-09)

Elevated nonfasting TG-rich lipoprotein levels are a risk factor for CVD. To further evaluate the relevance of LDL-receptor (LDLr) pathway and heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) in TG homeostasis, we analyzed fasting and postprandial TG levels in mice bearing combined heterozygous

Paradoxical effects of all-trans-retinoic acid on lupus-like disease in the MRL/lpr mouse model.
