    Abstract Background: Serum lipids, including total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), increase during pregnancy. Serum Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin Kexin 9 (PCSK9) is a vital regulator in lipoprotein metabolism. Circulating PCSK9 downregulates the LDL receptor on the surface of liver cells inhibiting clearance of LDL-c.
    Objective: To determine the influence of weeks of pregnancy and obesity on circulating levels of essential lipid lipoproteins and PCSK9 in women with normal, uncomplicated pregnancies and deliveries.
    Methods: We performed a comprehensive lipid and lipoprotein profile during each trimester of pregnancy in 70 mostly Caucasian women with uncomplicated normal pregnancies and deliveries. Based on their first trimester BMI, we placed them into one of three categories: (<25 kg/m
    Results: Total and active PCSK9, LDL-c, and nonHDL particle concentrations were higher than reported for non-pregnant normal values, increased after the first trimester of pregnancy, and were highest from mid-gestation to the last trimester of pregnancy in the overweight and the obese.
    Conclusion: PCSK9 levels rise as normal pregnancy progresses. Levels are higher in persons who are obese, even after adjustment for insulin resistance. Defining normal PCSK9 levels during pregnancy must adjust for gestational age and BMI.

    Abstract A general formalism for calculating physiological acid-base balance in multiple compartments is extended to the combined interstitial, plasma, and erythrocyte multicompartment system in humans using the Siggaard-Andersen approximation for interstitial fluid. The resulting equations for total titratable base and strong ion difference reproduce the experimental in vivo carbon dioxide titration curve as well as the experimental strong ion difference value of the interstitial, plasma, and erythrocyte system in normal man. The "Boston rules" for compensation in acute respiratory acidosis and alkalosis are then derived analytically from the model. The Van Slyke equation for the interstitial, plasma, and erythrocyte system is also derived and shown to approximate the Van Slyke equation for standard base excess.

    Abstract There has been renewed interest in quantifying acid-base disorders in the intensive care unit. One of the methods that has become increasingly used to calculate acid-base balance is the Stewart model. This model is briefly discussed in terms of its origin, its relationship to other methods such as the base excess approach, and the information it provides for the assessment and treatment of acid-base disorders in critically ill patients.

    Abstract A general formalism for calculating parameters describing physiological acid-base balance in single compartments is extended to multicompartment systems and demonstrated for the multicompartment example of human whole blood. Expressions for total titratable base, strong ion difference, change in total titratable base, change in strong ion difference, and change in Van Slyke standard bicarbonate are derived, giving calculated values in agreement with experimental data. The equations for multicompartment systems are found to have the same mathematical interrelationships as those for single compartments, and the relationship of the present formalism to the traditional form of the Van Slyke equation is also demonstrated. The multicompartment model brings the strong ion difference theory to the same quantitative level as the base excess method.

    Abstract A major 56 kDa substrate for phospholipid/Ca2+-dependent kinase (C-kinase) in pancreatic acinar cells is physicochemically and immunologically indistinguishable from the vitamin D-binding protein, Gc or group-specific component. Cellular Gc was also phosphorylated in intact cells following treatment with carbachol as a physiological stimulus. These findings indicate the potential usefulness of Gc as a defined substrate for further studies of the biological role of C-kinase activity in pancreatic acini and possibly in other cells.
