Sentence examples for adipose ratio from inspiring English sources

Diliberto et al. (1997) previously suggested that a liver:adipose ratio > 0.3 reflects congener-specific hepatic sequestration.

This was confirmed using CYP1A2 knockout mice in which the liver:adipose ratio decreased to < 0.3 for TCDD and 4-PeCDF, which is indicative of no hepatic sequestration (Diliberto et al. 1997).

In our study, we observed liver:adipose ratios > 0.3 for TCDD, PeCDD, 4-PeCDF, and PCB-126 but liver:adipose ratios < 0.3 for PCBs 118, 156, and 153 (Table 1).

Hepatic sequestration was dose dependent for TCDD and PCB-126 (as shown by increasing liver:adipose ratios at higher dose levels) but not for PeCDD and 4-PeCDF.

On the basis of the liver:adipose ratios established in our study (Table 1), it appears that these congener-specific differences have a toxicokinetic basis, in which hepatic sequestration due to CYP1A2 binding plays a significant role.

In adipose, the ratio of observed to expected (see Methods) gene overlap exceeds 10 at high thresholds.

In a short-term incubation system like ours, with a high medium-to-adipose tissue ratio, supplementation of the medium with albumin may not be necessary.

Lipid-adjusted serum levels are considered representative of exposure in breast fat; arithmetic means ranged between 5.6 1 and 3.5 1 for breast adipose:serum ratios for p,p´-DDE levels in women (Lopez-Carrillo et al. 1999).

The visceral/subcutaneous adipose tissue area ratio (V/S ratio) was calculated.

The visceral/subcutaneous adipose tissue area ratio (VAT/SAT ratio) was calculated.

Research efforts are needed in clarifying determinants of serum-adipose partition ratios; the utility of urinary porphyrins as a measure of subclinical hepatic effects; human metabolites and excretion of chlorinated hydrocarbons; and the relation, if any, between blood pressure and organochlorine compounds when controlled for confounding variables.
