A Robust LC/MS/MS Method for the Quantitation of Very Long Chain Fatty Acids for Research into the Characterization of Peroxisomal Disorders

The peroxisome is a cellular organelle that plays an important role in a number of functions, including the beta-oxidation of very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA). Peroxisomal disorders are characterized by impaired, reduced or total absence of peroxisomes in cells, which can result in the accumulation of VLCFAs, such as tetracosanoic and hexaco...

Th1 and Th2 Balance, Regulation, and Involvement in Disease

Cytokines are the hormonal messengers responsible for most of the biological effects in the immune system, such as cell-mediated immunity and allergic type responses. T lymphocytes are a major source of cytokines. These cells bear antigen-specific receptors on their cell surface to allow recognition of foreign pathogens. There are two main subsets of T lymphocytes, distinguished by th...
