Suboptimal regulation of a class of bilinear interconnected systems with finite-time sliding planning horizons
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2008)
This paper focuses on the suboptimization of a class of multivariable discrete-time bilinear systems consisting of interconnected bilinear subsystems with respect to a linear quadratic optimal regulation criterion which ...
Tumor necrosis factor alpha drugs in rheumatoid arthritis: systematic review and metaanalysis of efficacy and safety
(BioMed Central, 2008-04-17)
Background: To analyse available evidence on the efficacy and safety of anti-TNF alpha drugs (infliximab, etanercept and adalimumab) for treating rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: We searched systematically for randomised ...
Influence of different dietary fats on triacylglycerol deposition in rat adipose tissue
(Cambridge University Press, 2000-11)
It has been demonstrated that triacylglycerol (TAG) mobilization from adipose tissue is selective and depends on fatty acid (FA) chain length, unsaturation and positional isomerism. The present study was performed to ...
Dietary fat source regulates ob gene expression in white adipose tissue of rats under hyperphagic feeding
(Cambridge University Press, 2002-05)
This work was designed to investigate the effect of different lipid sources on ob gene expression and serum leptin levels in rats with two different feeding protocols: (1) free access to food; or (2) energy-controlled ...
The trans-10,cis-12 isomer of conjugated linoleic acid reduces hepatic triacylglycerol content without affecting lipogenic enzymes in hamsters
(Cambridge University Press, 2004-09)
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) refers to the positional and geometric dienoic isomers of linoleic acid. The dietary intake of CLA has been associated with changes in lipid metabolism. The aim of the present work was to ...

Effect of resveratrol on alcohol-induced mortality and liver lesions in mice
(BioMed Central, 2006-11-14)
Background
Resveratrol is a polyphenol with important antiinflammatory and antioxidant properties. We investigated the effect of resveratrol on alcohol-induced mortality and liver lesions in mice.
Methods
Mice were ...
Weak effect of trans-10, cis-12-conjugated linoleic acid on body fat accumulation in adult hamsters
(Cambridge University Press, 2009-12-14)
It has been proposed that young animals and subjects are more responsive to conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) than the adults. Nevertheless, there is very little information concerning the effectiveness of CLA in adult animals. ...
Long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid from fish oil modulates aortic nitric oxide and tocopherol status in the rat
(Cambridge University Press, 2008-10)
In spite of their high oxidisability. long-chain n-3 PUFA protect against CVD. Dietary fatty acids modulate the fatty acid composition of lipoproteins involved in atherosclerosis. We thought that if long-chain n-3 PUFA ...
