[HTML][HTML] Altered lipid profile, lipoprotein composition, and oxidant and antioxidant status in pediatric Crohn disease
E Levy, Y Rizwan, L Thibault, G Lepage… - The American journal of …, 2000 - Elsevier
Background: Growing evidence supports a role for peroxidation in the pathogenesis of
Crohn disease (CD). The activation of inflammatory cells, the release of their mediators, and
the excessive production of free radicals may affect circulating lipids. Objective: We
examined the lipid profile, lipoprotein composition, and oxidant-antioxidant status of children
with CD. Design: We studied 22 pediatric CD patients and 10 healthy control subjects.
Results: The proportion of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids in plasma of CD …
