Plasma samples of 10 Lean and 10 Fat mice were individually analyzed for total plasma cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, plasma triglyceride and glucose concentrations.
Analysis of hepatic lipids in individual samples of 10 Lean and 10 Fat mice was carried out using frozen liver tissue (50 mg) which was homogenized in SET buffer (1 mL ; sucrose 250 mM, EDTA 2 mM and Tris 10 mM), followed by two freeze-thaw cycles and three passages through a 27-gauge syringe needle and a final freeze-thaw cycle to ensure complete cell lysis.
a,: Sequences of oligonucleotides are indicated from 5' to 3' end a: Microarray F/L fold changes are taken from Table 5. b: Fold changes (F/L: mean of fat sample values on mean of lean sample values).
71 Nevertheless, percentage trunk fat estimated by DEXA has been positively correlated (r = 0.77) with VAT determined by CT in a sample of 206 lean and obese women.
The Marcaggi family have been raising black Corsican pigs for four generations, and once Paul Marcaggi starts offering samples of lonzu, a lean pork fillet, prisuttu ham and figatellu sausage, it is easy to spend a fortune.
The results of physico-chemical analysis of 20 groundwater samples of Dhanbad Township, in lean period (summer) are given in Table 1.
Maximal tolerated RNA quality divergence for a pair of Lean and Fat-line samples co-hybridized on the same microarray was ± 0.5 RIN.
The characteristics of this sample have been detailed in previous single locus GWAS of lean body mass [27].
Our study was not designed as a case-control allelic association study and these observations need to be repeated in an ethnically matched sample of obese and lean children.
Our study was, however, limited by a slightly small sample size for certain contrasts such as analyses in subgroups of lean and overweight men or of IMTG content.
