Diminished carnitine levels may cause a downregulation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase1 (CPT1), both the liver isoform (CPT1A) and muscle isoform (CPT1B), carnitine palmitoyltransferase2 (CPT2), and carnitine acetyltransferase (CRAT) in white blood cells of pregnant women, as determined by real time PCR using the LightCyclerSYBR Green technology
Respiration was measured using an Oroboros O2k respirometer (Oroboros Instruments, Austria) with mitochondria suspended in Buffer Z (1 mM EGTA, 5 mM MgCl 2 , 105 mM K-MES, 30 mM KCl, 10 mM KH 2 PO 4 , 5 mg/mL fatty acid-free BSA, pH 7.1)
Opiates such as morphine reliably inhibit the behavioral, electrophysiological and biochemical responses evoked by acute thermal, mechanical and other noxious stimuli in rats
GCG, glucagon = at least 16 islets from 5 mice
Probabilities of the primary outcome data being observed at week 68 were estimated using treatment allocation, age and baseline weight as model predictors
