    Complete Inactivation of Sebum-Producing Genes Parallels the Loss of Sebaceous Glands in Cetacea 
    Lopes-Marques, Mónica; Machado, André M; Alves, Luís Q; Fonseca, Miguel M; Barbosa, Susana; Sinding, Mikkel-Holger S; Rasmussen, Marianne; Iversen, Maria Refsgaard; Frost Bertelsen, Mads; Campos, Paula F; da Fonseca, Rute; Ruivo, Raquel; Castro, L Filipe C (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2019-03-20)
    Genomes are dynamic biological units, with processes of gene duplication and loss triggering evolutionary novelty. The mammalian skin provides a remarkable case study on the occurrence of adaptive morphological innovations. Skin sebaceous glands (SGs), ...

    The impact of APOE genotype on survival: Results of 38,537 participants from six population-based cohorts (E2-CHARGE) 
    Wolters, Frank J.; Yang, Qiong; Biggs, Mary L.; Jakobsdottir, Johanna; Li, Shuo; Evans, Daniel S.; Bis, Joshua C.; Harris, Tamara B.; Vasan, Ramachandran S.; Zilhao, Nuno R.; Ghanbari, Mohsen; Ikram, M. Arfan; Launer, Lenore; Psaty, Bruce M.; Tranah, Gregory J.; Kulminski, Alexander M.; Gudnason, Vilmundur; Seshadri, Sudha (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2019-07-29)
    Background Apolipoprotein E is a glycoprotein best known as a mediator and regulator of lipid transport and uptake. The APOE-e4 allele has long been associated with increased risks of Alzheimer's disease and mortality, but the effect of the less prevalent ...

    The influence of lipid content and pretreatment methods on protein conformation in fish (capelin, Mallotus villosus ) during smoking and drying 
    Odoli, Cyprian Ogombe; Oduor‐Odote, Peter; Arason, Sigurjón (Wiley, 2019-02-27)
    The influence of lipid content and pretreatment methods (blanching and brining) on proteins conformation in fish (Capelin, Mallotus villosus) during drying and smoking were assessed. Soluble protein fractions were examined through changes in salt-soluble ...

    Lipidomic study of cell lines reveals differences between breast cancer subtypes 
    Eiríksson, Finnur F.; Nøhr, Martha Kampp; Costa, Margarida; Bodvarsdottir, Sigridur Klara; Ögmundsdóttir, Helga M.; Þorsteinsdóttir, Margrét (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2020-04-14)
    Breast cancer (BC) is the most prevalent type of cancer in women in western countries. BC mortality has not declined despite early detection by screening, indicating the need for better informed treatment decisions. Therefore, a novel noninvasive ...

    Nonlinear Trimodal Regression Analysis of Radiodensitometric Distributions to Quantify Sarcopenic and Sequelae Muscle Degeneration 
    Edmunds, Kyle; Árnadóttir, Íris Dröfn; Gíslason, Magnús; Carraro, Ugo; Gargiulo, Paolo (Hindawi Limited, 2016-12)
    Muscle degeneration has been consistently identified as an independent risk factor for high mortality in both aging populations and individuals suffering from neuromuscular pathology or injury. While there is much extant literature on its quantification ...

    Plasma stearoyl-CoA desaturase activity indices and bile acid concentrations after a low-fat meal: association with a genetic variant in the FTO gene 
    Skúladóttir, Guðrún Valgerður; Óskarsdóttir, Harpa; Pisanu, Claudia; Sjödin, Marcus; Lindberg, Johan; Mwinyi, Jessica; Schiöth, Helgi B (Dove Medical Press Ltd., 2018-10)
    Purpose: Dietary macronutrient composition, stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) activity indices, and primary bile acid (BA) concentrations are among the factors that have been associated with lipid metabolism and contributed to obesity. We investigated the ...

    Searching for immunomodulatory compounds from Icelandic marine invertebrates 
    Di, Xiaxia (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2019-01-07)
    A substantial diversity of secondary metabolites from marine invertebrates has been described; however, only a few studies have investigated secondary metabolites of marine invertebrates collected in Icelandic waters. The unique marine environment ...

    Synthesis and enantiospecific analysis of enantiostructured triacylglycerols containing n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids 
    Kalpio, Marika; Magnússon, Jóhann D.; Guðmundsson, Haraldur G.; Linderborg, Kaisa M.; Kallio, Heikki; Haraldsson, Guðmundur G.; Yang, Baoru (Elsevier BV, 2020-09)
    The stereospecific structure of triacylglycerols (TAGs) affects the bioavailability of fatty acids. Lack of enantiopure reference compounds and effective enantiospecific methods have hindered the stereospecific analysis of individual TAGs. Twelve novel ...
