FADS2 polymorphisms are associated with plasma arachidonic acid and estimated desaturase-5 activity in a cross-sectional study
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Polymorphisms in FADS genes are associated with plasma long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) and modulate omega-6/omega-3 balance. We hypothesized that the FADS2 gene variants will be associated with lower ...
Structural characteristics of circulating immune complexes in calves with bronchopneumonia: Impact on the quiescent leukocytes
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Calf bronchopneumonia is accompanied by increased level of circulating immune complexes (CIC), and we analysed size, and protein and lipid constituents of these CIC with an attempt to elucidate the connection between the ...
