Is there a relationship between plasma phenylalanine and cholesterol in phenylketonuric patients under dietary treatment?
Our findings support the hypothesis of a relationship between high plasma phenylalanine levels and an inhibition of cholesterogenesis, although the low cholesterol intake of the special diets may also decrease serum cholesterol values.
Phragmites australis is a native species that has been in Mexico for thousands of years. Genetic data suggest that climatic changes during the Pleistocene played an important role in the demographic expansion of the populations that constitute the different genetic groups of P. australis in Mexico.
