High grain diets perturb rumen and plasma metabolites and induce inflammatory responses in early lactation dairy cows
Download2007
Emmanuel, D.G.V., Shanthipoosan, S., Ametaj, B.N.
Immediately after parturition dairy cows are fed diets containing high proportions of grain which are associated with high incidence of metabolic disorders. However, the reason behind these effects is not clear. The goal of this study was to investigate metabolic and immune responses of early...

High-fructose feeding of streptozotocin-diabetic rats is associated with increased cataract formation and increased oxidative stress in the kidney

Sivak, J. , Storr, K. C., Carlson, J. C., Bell, R. C., Herbert, K.
We examined the effects of high-fructose (FR) feeding on the development of diabetic complications in the lens and the kidney of streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats. Male Wistar Furth rats were treated with one of two doses of STZ (HIGH STZ, 55 mg/kg body weight; MOD STZ, 35 mg/kg body weight) or...

High-performance variants of plant diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 generated by directed evolution provide insights into structure function
Download2017-09-10
Chen, Guanqun, Vanhercke, Thomas, Chen, Yongyan, Mietkiewska, Elzbieta, Siloto, Rodrigo M. P., Niesner, Nathalie, Xu, Yang, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Weselake, Randall J., El Tahchy, Anna
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) catalyzes the acyl-CoA-dependent biosynthesis of triacylglycerol, the predominant component of seed oil. In some oil crops, including Brassica napus, the level of DGAT1 activity can have a substantial effect on triacylglycerol production....

Siloto, Rodrigo M. P., Weselake, Randall J.
Neutral lipids are ubiquitously found in nature, serving primarily as energy storage compounds. The ability to control the rate of neutral lipid bioassembly is of particular interest in numerous applications. For example, restriction of triacylglycerol and steryl ester synthesis in mammals could...

Host-adapted lactobacilli in food fermentations: impact of metabolic traits of host adapted lactobacilli on food quality and human health
Download2020-10-27
Back-slopping of fermentation cultures in food fermentations can ensure stability of fermentation microbiota at the species or even at the strain level over extended periods of time. In contrast to the fermentation organisms in spontaneous food fermentations, which are derived from...

Older adults and special populations (living with disability and/or chronic illness that may limit mobility and/or physical endurance) can benefit from practicing a more physically active lifestyle, typically by increasing ambulatory activity. Step counting devices (accelerometers and pedometers)...

Identification and expression analysis of WRKY transcription factor genes in Brassica napus (canola) in response to fungal pathogens and hormone treatments
Download2009
Yang, Bo, Rahman, Muhammad H., Deyholos, Michael K., Kav, Nat N. V., Jiang, Yuanqing
Background Members of plant WRKY transcription factor families are widely implicated in defense responses and various other physiological processes. For canola (Brassica napus L.), no WRKY genes have been described in detail. Because of the economic importance of this crop, and its evolutionary...

Identification of a pair of phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferases from developing flax (Linum usitatissiumum L.) seed catalyzing the selective production of trilinolenin
Download2013
Wickramarathna, Aruna D., Siloto, Rodrigo M. P., Mietkiewska, Elzbieta, Pan, Xue, Weselake, Randall J.
The oil from flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) has high amounts of α-linolenic acid (ALA; 18:3cisΔ9,12,15) and is one of the richest sources of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3-PUFAs). To produce ∼57% ALA in triacylglycerol (TAG), it is likely that flax contains enzymes that can efficiently...

Identification of differentially expressed genes in sexed pig embryos during post-hatching development in primiparous sows exposed to differing intermittent suckling and breeding strategies

Chen, Tai Y., Foxcroft, George R., Blanes, Milena, Dyck, Michael K., Athorn, Rebecca, Langendijk, Piete, Tsoi, Stephen
The aim of commercial pig breeding programs is to maximize the number of pigs produced per sow per year. Given that sows exhibit an estrus during lactation is a potential means of increasing productivity of a pig breeding herd without reducing in lactation length, conventionally, weaning of...
