Lifestyles of sourdough lactobacilli – Do they matter for microbial ecology and bread quality?
Download2018-01-01
Gänzle, Michael G., Zheng, Jinshui
Sourdough is used in production of (steamed) bread as leavening agent (type I sourdoughs) or as baking improver to enhance flavour, texture, and shelf life of bread (type II sourdoughs). The long-term propagation of sourdoughs eliminates dispersal limitation and consistently leads to sourdough...

Limited mitochondrial permeabilization is an early manifestation of palmitate-induced lipotoxicity in pancreatic ß-cells
Download2008
Wheeler, Michael B., Chan, Catherine B., Dai, Feihan F., Koshkin, Vasilij, Robson-Doucette, Christine A.
Involvement of the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore in early stages of lipotoxic stress in the pancreatic β-cell lines MIN6 and INS-1 was the focus of this study. Both long term (indirect) and acute (direct) effects of fatty acid (FA) application on β-cell susceptibility to...

Zebeli, Qendrim, Ametaj, Burim N.
Maintaining a healthy rumen ecosystem is crucial to avoid systemic disorders in cattle, but also critical to ensure that milk and meat are produced from healthy animals in an efficient and cost-effective manner. In fact, today’s intensive management systems of cattle typically encourage the...

Lipid metabolism, adipocyte depot physiology and utilization of meat animals as experimental models for metabolic research
Download2010-01-01
Dodson, Michael V., Hausman, Gary J., Guan, LeLuo, Du, Min, Rasmussen, Theodore P., Poulos, Sylvia P., Mir, Priya, Bergen, Werner G., Fernyhough, Melinda E., McFarland, Douglas C., Rhoads, Robert P., Soret, Beatrice, Reecy, James M., Velleman, Sandra G., Jiang, Zhihua
Meat animals are unique as experimental models for both lipid metabolism and adipocyte studies because of their direct economic value for animal production. This paper discusses the principles that regulate adipogenesis in major meat animals (beef cattle, dairy cattle, and pigs), the definition...

Lipid phosphate phosphatase-1 expression in cancer cells attenuates tumor growth and metastasis in mice
Download2014
Dewald, Jay, Santos, Webster L., Patwardhan, Neeraj, Zhao, Yuan Y., McMullen, Todd P. W., Curtis, Jonathan M., Brindley, David N., Tang, Xiaoyun, Benesch, Matthew G. K.
Lipid phosphate phosphatase-1 (LPP1) degrades lysophosphatidate (LPA) and attenuates receptor-mediated signaling. LPP1 expression is low in many cancer cells and tumors compared with normal tissues. It was hypothesized from studies with cultured cells that increasing LPP1 activity would decrease...

Forsyth, George W., Romancyia, D. A., Uwiera, Richard R. E., Wong, Jonathan P.
The B subunit of cholera toxin has been covalently attached to the surface of Uposomes made from a mixture of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphati- dylcholine and cholesterol. Adenylate cydase inhibitors and chloride conduc- tance inhibitors were encapsulated within the liposomes. These...

Long-term catheterization of the intestinal lymph trunk and collection of lymph in neonatal pigs
Download2016-01-01
Uwiera, Richard R., Mangat, Rabban., Kelly, Sandra, Uwiera, Trina C., Proctor, Spencer D.
Catheterization of the intestinal lymph trunk in neonatal pigs is a technique allowing for the long-term collection of large quantities of intestinal (central) efferent lymph. Importantly, the collection of central lymph from the intestine enables researchers to study both the mechanisms and...

Long-term effect of docosahexaenoic acid feeding on lipid composition and brain fatty acid-binding protein expression in rats
Download2015
Moncton, Elizabeth A., Brun, Miranda, Emara, Marwan, Field, Catherine J., Goruk, Susan, Godbout, Roseline, Elsherbiny, Marwa E., Richard, Caroline
Arachidonic (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) brain accretion is essential for brain development. The impact of DHA-rich maternal diets on offspring brain fatty acid composition has previously been studied up to the weanling stage; however, there has been no follow-up at later stages. Here, we...

Luteolysis, onset of estrus, and ovulation in Holstein heifers given prostaglandin F2alpha concurrent with, or 24 hours prior to, removal of an intravaginal, progesterone-releasing device
Download2004
Ambrose, Divakar J., Hittinger, M. A., Kastelic, John P.
The objective was to determine the effects of giving prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF) concurrent with, or 24 h before, removal of an intravaginal, progesterone-releasing (controlled internal drug release [CIDR]) device, on luteolysis, the synchrony of estrus and ovulation. Eighteen postpubertal...

Management practices for carnival-season production of immature field corn in Trinidad & Tobago
Download1997-01-01
Spaner, Dean, Mather, Diane E., Brathwaite, R. A. I.
Immature field corn (Zea mays L.) grown for pre-lenten carnival festivities in Trinidad and Tobago can be a profitable cash crop. Hybrid and local unimproved open-pollinated corn were grown with two levels of weed control and fertilizer application late in the rainy season at two locations each...
