Tissue distribution in primal cuts of Canadian beef composites and opportunities for harvesting younger and leaner cattle
Download2012-01-01
Goonewardene, Laksiri A., Basarab, John A., Wang, Z., Price, Megan A., Ramsey, P., Marx, T., Aalhus, J., Seneviratne, R. W., Yalingasinghe, W. G. N. P., Okine, Erasmus K.
The objectives were to compare weights and proportions (%) of muscle (M), fat (F) and bone (B) in the carcass, primal cuts (brisket, loin and short loin, chuck, flank, plate, rib, round and shank) and fat depots in three BeefBooster® composites (n = 176) from 274-456 days at slaughter, and...

Lewis, Erin D., Kosik, Sarah J., Zhao, Yuan-Yuan, Jacobs, René L., Curtis, Jonathan M., Field, Catherine J.
Estimating dietary choline intake can be challenging due to missing foods in the current United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) database. The objectives of the study were to quantify the choline-containing moieties and the total choline content of a variety of pulses available in North...

Total energy expenditure assessed by 24-h whole-room indirect calorimeter in patients with colorectal cancer: baseline findings from the PRIMe study
Download2023-08-01
Ford, Katherine L, Pichard, Claude, Sawyer, Michael B., Trottier, Claire F, Disi, Ilana Roitman, Purcell, Sarah A, Ghosh, Sunita, Siervo, Mario, Deutz, Nicolaas E. P., Prado, Carla M.
Background Total energy expenditure (TEE) determines energy requirements, but objective data in patients with cancer are limited. Objectives We aimed to characterize TEE, investigate its predictors, and compare TEE with cancer-specific predicted energy requirements. Methods This cross-sectional...

Kinniburgh, David, Bello, Aminu K., Walsh, Michael, Wiebe, Natasha, Manns, Braden J., Field, Catherine J., Thompson, Stephanie, Faruque, Labib, Hemmalgarn, Brenda R., Klarenbach, Scott W., Tonelli, Marcello
Background People with kidney failure are often deficient in zinc and selenium, but little is known about the optimal way to correct such deficiency. Methods We did a double-blind randomized trial evaluating the effects of zinc (Zn), selenium (Se) and vitamin E added to the standard oral renal...

Transcriptional profiling of pea ABR17-mediated changes in gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana
Download2008
Krishnaswamy, Sowmya, Mohammadi, Mohsen, Kav, Nat N. V., Deyholos, Michael K., Srivastava, Sanjeeva, Rahman, Muhammad H.
Background Pathogenesis-related proteins belonging to group 10 (PR10) are elevated in response to biotic and abiotic stresses in plants. Previously, we have shown a drastic salinity-induced increase in the levels of ABR17, a member of the PR10 family, in pea. Furthermore, we have also...

Transcriptional regulation of lipid metabolism: A key determinant of pancreatic ß-cell function
Download2005
Fatehi-Hassanabad, Zahra, Chan, Catherine B.
Background Optimal pancreatic β-cell function is essential for the regulation of glucose homeostasis in both humans and animals and its impairment leads to the development of diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is a polygenic disease aggravated by environmental factors such as low physical activity or a...

Transcriptome microRNA profiling of bovine mammary epithelial cells challenged with Escherichia coli or Staphylococcus aureus bacteria reveals pathogen directed microRNA expression profiles
Download2014
Zhao, Xin, Liang, Guanxiang, Jin, Weiwu, Guan, Leluo, Beaudoin, Frédéric, Ibeagha-Awemu, Eveline M.
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression and have been shown to be critical regulators to the fine-tuning of epithelial immune responses. However, the role of miRNAs in bovine responses to E. coli and S. aureus, two mastitis causing pathogens, is not well...
