Non digestible carbohydrates in the diet determine toxicity of irinotecan (CPT-11)/5-fluorouracil in rats independently of β-glucuronidase activity in intestinal lumen
DownloadFall 2012
Aim of this study was to assess effects of non-digestible carbohydrates on the pathobiology of mucosal injury after chemotherapy. Rats bearing colon tumor (n=6/diet) were fed diets including 8% (w/w) as either cellulose, inulin, fructo-oligosaccharide (OligoF), 50:50 (w/w) inulin and oligoF...

Non-digestible fibers and dietary interventions: alternative approaches for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease
DownloadSpring 2014
Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), collectively called inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are associated with chronic intestinal inflammation, affecting approximately 0.7 % of Canadians. Intestinal microbial dysbiosis have been related to IBD. Therapies that manipulate gut...

Patterson, D. L., Price, M. A., Berg, R. T.
The data used in this study consisted of 119 075 complete lactation records accumulated by record of performance (ROP) from 1976 to 1981. Each individual record consisted of 7, 8 or 9 monthly test day milk weights and corresponding fat percentage. The data for each breed (Ayrshire, Guernsey,...

Quantitative Label-Free Comparative Proteomic Analyses of Eukaryotic Tissues via Mass Spectrometry
DownloadFall 2018
In recent years, rapid advances in genomic and transcriptomic sequencing technologies have enabled the compilation of vast libraries of protein sequences and thus an explosion in bioinformatics-based fields of research. Among these is proteomics – the study of global protein abundance within a...

Resistance and Membrane Fluidity of Endospores of Clostridium spp. During Pressure-Assisted Thermal Processing in the Presence of Antimicrobials
DownloadSpring 2012
Endospores of Clostridium spp. pose an economic threat to the food industry and put consumers at risk of foodborne illness. An increase in consumer demand for minimally-processed, ready-to-eat products has driven research to examine ways to mitigate current thermal processing severity used to...

Single and combined supplementation of glutamine and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on host tolerance and tumour response to 7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxy-camptothecin (CPT-11)/5-fluorouracil chemotherapy in rats bearing Ward colon tumour
Download2009
Xue, Hongyu, Sawyer, Michael B., Le Roy, Severine, Dieleman, Levinus A., Baracos, Vickie E., Field, Catherine J.
Prior reports suggest that during irinotecan (7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxy-camptothecin; CPT-11) chemotherapy in laboratory rats, the anti-tumour efficacy and diarrhoea toxicity could be modulated by n-3 PUFA and glutamine, respectively. We further examined how these two...

Spectral Editing for Detection of Oncologically Relevant Metabolites with In-Vivo Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy at 9.4 T
DownloadFall 2019
Short echo time (TE) magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) techniques with spectral fitting are commonly employed approaches for brain metabolite quantification at 9.4 T. However, there is a significant overlap of peaks in short-TE spectra, even at 9.4 T. To better resolve resonances, spectral...

Fall 2019
Breast cancer is the leading cause of death among women worldwide. Fortunately, death rates have been declining since 1990, due to the increase in early detection, testing, and improved treatment. However, despite the advancement of targeted and hormone therapies for certain molecular sub-types...

Maggiore, Jack A., Eliasziw, Misha, Rabi, Doreen, O'Beirne, Maeve, Field, Catherine J., Hanley, David A., Dewey, Deborah, Aghajafari, Fariba, Weinberg, Amy, Kaplan, Bonnie J., Ross, Sue
Background The aims of this study were to determine if pregnant women consumed the recommended vitamin D through diet alone or through diet and supplements, and if they achieved the current reference range vitamin D status when their reported dietary intake met the current recommendations....
