    Notes: Abstract This study investigates compositional differences in low density lipoprotein (LDL) subfractions and their relationship to cellular cholesterol synthesis. We examined ten normocholesterolaemic (serum cholesterol 〈6.5 mM) non-diabetic subjects (group 1) and compared them with ten normocholesterolaemic (group 2) and ten hypercholesterolaemic (group 3) (serum cholesterol 〉6.5 mM) type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients. Serum cholesterol levels for groups 1, 2 and 3 were 5.19±0.27, 5.20±0.27 and 7.51±0.31 mM. LDL1 (density 1.006–1.028 g/l) and LDL2 (1.028–1.063 g/l) were isolated by density gradient ultracentrifugation. A significantly greater proportion of cholesterol was carried in LDL2 than LDL1 in all groups. There was a significantly lower cholesterol/protein ratio in LDL1 from the hypercholesterolaemic diabetic patients compared with controls. The LDL esterified/free cholesterol ratio was significantly greater in both LDL1 and LDL2 in the hypercholesterolaemic diabetic patients compared with the other two groups. There was a negative correlation between inhibition of cholesterol synthesis and the esterified/free cholesterol ratio of both LDL1 (r=0.56,P〈0.002) and LDL2 (r=0.63,P〈0.001). Cellular cholesterol of 41.0±0.3 μg/mg cell protein in the hypercholesterolaemic diabetic patients was also significantly higher compared with values of 30.32±2.0 and 34.1±4.2 μg/mg cell protein for the normocholesterolaemic non-diabetic and diabetic groups. In vitro LDL esterification led to a decrease in LDL receptor-mediated binding and resulted in a 40% reduction in the ability of the LDL to suppress cholesterol synthesis. The study demonstrates a relationship between the LDL esterified/free cholesterol ratio, LDL receptor binding and cellular cholesterol and may have implications for the understanding of hypercholesterolaemia in diabetes.

    Notes: Abstract The role of the intestine in cholesterol metabolism in human diabetes is unclear, although abnormalities have been demonstrated in cholesterol synthesis and absorption in diabetic animals. This study examines the relationship between fasting and post-prandial apolipoprotein B-48 in type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic and non-diabetic subjects. Eight type 2 diabetic patients and ten healthy non-diabetic control subjects were given a high-fat meal (1300 kcal), and the triglyceride-rich lipoprotein fraction was isolated by ultracentrifugation (d〈1.006 g/ml) from fasting and post-prandial plasma. Apolipoprotein B-48 and apo B-100 were separated on 4%–15% gradient gels and quantified by densitometric scanning with reference to a purified low-density lipoprotein (LDL) apo B-100 preparation. Diabetic patients had significantly higher concentrations of apo B-48 and apo B-100 in both the fasting (P〈0.05) and post-prandial (P〈0.001) triglyceride-rich lipoprotein samples compared with non-diabetic subjects. The diabetic patients also exhibited a significantly different post-prandial profile for apo B-48 and apo B-100, with a prolonged increase and a later post-prandial peak, than the non-diabetic subjects (P〈0.01). These results suggest that the raised fasting triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, often found in diabetes, are associated with apo B-48 and may be derived from increased intestinal chylomicron production. The post-prandial pattern suggests an abnormality in intestinal production as well as hepatic clearance of apo B-48 in type 2 diabetes.

    Notes: Scanning electron microscopy has been used to enhance the description of a single species, Caretta caretta (the loggerhead turtle), staged according to Miller's system for the development of marine turtles. Incubation over a temperature range of 25°-34°C confirms previous observations that, under artificial conditions and at a constant incubation temperature, normal development is confined to a limited temperature range. Premature pipping is a feature of incubation at the lower end of this range; abnormal development, generated during the first third of the incubation period, occurs just above the normal range. Details of the external morphology of embryos from Miller stage 14 through to 25 are given together with an account of the developmental abnormalities produced at a high temperature of incubation. The data obtained confirm that Miller's scheme is generally applicable to C. caretta, provided that due regard is paid to the incubation temperature. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The meaning of some terms used in describing the development of embryos is discussed in the light of their historical origin and current usage. Attention is focused on the terminology associated with the early development of animals, particularly that concerned with gastrulation and germ layer theory. It is suggested that terms linked with outdated concepts are not always appropriate for, and unless defined with care may limit, our appreciation of the significance of subsequent observation and experiment. Recommendations are made concerning the use of the terms mesoblast, mesoderm and mesenchyme.
