Arginine metabolism in porcine enterocytes
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Enterocytes contain a functional urea cycle and may play a pivotal role in arginine metabolism and homeostasis in growing pigs. The activities of carbamoyl phosphate synthase-1 (CPS-1), ornithine carbamoyltransferase (OCT), ...
Impact of humate supplementation on ruminal microorganisms grown in continuous culture fermenters
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Twelve continuous culture experiments were conducted to determine the impact of humate (H) supplementation on pH ammonia (ppm), DM,NDF, ADF and HC disappearance in the bovine run-ruminal ecology. The continuous culture ...
Effects of flaxseed lignans on laying hen reproductive parameters
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Flaxseed, rich in the essential omega-3 fatty acid (FA) linolenic acid (LNA; C18:3n-3), can be included in laying hen rations for the production of omega-3 FAenriched shell eggs. In addition to being a rich source of LNA, ...
The relationship between body weight, length of stay, medical expenses, and type of illness in the hospital population
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
The objective of this study was to determine if percent optimal body weight (%OBW) at the time of hospital admission influences hospital length of stay (LOS), medical expenses, and types of diagnoses. All hospital admissions ...
Alkaline phosphatase, a biochemical marker of cellular differentiation of BeWo choriocarcinoma cell line
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Cellular copper homeostasis depends on a Cu-ATPase enzyme in the membrane. Surprisingly, flask-grown BeWo cells do not display ATPase. We found Cu-ATPase is only expressed in differentiated cells such as Caco-2 cells. Since ...
The influence of a single exercise bout on plasma lipoprotein phospholipids in hypercholesterolemic and normocholesterolemic men
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
This study determined the influence of a single exercise bout on plasma lipoprotein phospholpids in I I hypercholesterolemic (HC) and 14 normocholesterolernic (NC) subjects. The exercise bout consisted of walking or jogging ...
Anabolic growth regulator enhancement of amino acid transport in L-6 myoblasts
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
A series of experiments was conducted to assess the effects of trenbolone acetate, dihydrotestosterone, 170-estradiol, zeranol, zearalanone, zearalanol, dexamethasone and IGF-I on amino acid transport in L-6 myoblasts. ...
Non-invasive detection of protein kinase C Beta II and [], putative biomarkers for colon cancer using fecal messenger RNA
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
There is strong evidence that select dietary factors play a key role in the development of colon cancer. It has recently been shown that dietary fat and fiber can alter colonic protein kinase C (PKC) activity and isozyme ...
