Beneficial effects of simulated gastro-intestinal digests of fried egg and its fractions on blood pressure, plasma lipids and oxidative stress in spontaneously hypertensive rats
Download2014
Majumder, Kaustav, Jahandideh, Forough, Morton, Jude S., Davidge, Sandra T., Kaufman, Susan, Chakrabarti, Subhadeep, Panahi, Sareh, Wu, Jianping
Background We have previously characterized several antihypertensive peptides in simulated digests of cooked eggs and showed blood pressure lowering property of fried whole egg digest. However, the long-term effects of this hydrolysate and its fractions on blood pressure are not known. Therefore,...

Can L-arginine Influence the Acute Hormonal, Metabolic, and Physiological Responses at Rest and Prior to Exercise?
DownloadFall 2012
L-arginine is a conditionally essential amino acid and has recently been purported as ergogenic for both strength and aerobic athletes; however, the value of oral L-arginine supplementation in physically active participants is controversial. The purpose of this dissertation was threefold: first...

CHROMATOGRAPHY APPROACHES FOR ANALYZING FRYING OILS AND ASSESSING THE ANTIOXIDATIVE ABILITY OF SITOSTEROL
DownloadFall 2013
The novel utility of sitosterol as an antioxidant in frying oils is explained mechanistically based on physical organic chemistry principles. The antioxidative effect of sitosterol is attributed to the conversion of sterol to steradiene by the 1, 2 elimination of water, which may be catalyzed by...

Combined effect of pressure-assisted thermal processing and antioxidants on the retention of conjugated linoleic acid in milk
Download2015
Saldaña, Marleny D.A., Martinez-Monteagudo, Sergio I.
The effect of pressure-assisted thermal processing (PATP) in combination with seven synthetic antioxidants was evaluated on the retention of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in enriched milk. Milk rich in CLA was first saturated with oxygen, followed by the addition of either catechin, cysteine,...

Design and synthesis of arylthiophene-2-Carbaldehydes via suzuki-miyaura reactions and their biological evaluation
Download2013
Riaz, Muhammad, Zubair, Muhammad, Ali, Shaukat, Rasool, Nasir, Ullah, Aman, Nasim, Faiz-ul-Hassan, Rashid, Umer, Yaqoob, Asma
A series of various novel 4-arylthiophene-2-carbaldehyde compounds were synthesized in moderate to excellent yields via Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling with different arylboronic pinacol esters/acids. The synthesized products were screened for their antibacterial, haemolytic, antiurease, and nitric...

Effects of dietary combination of 25-OH-D3 and canthaxanthin on performance, meat yield, bone characteristics and antioxidant status of broilers housed under commercial and experimental conditions
DownloadFall 2014
The effects of 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 (25-OH-D3), canthaxanthin (CX), alone and in combination on broiler performance, meat yield, oxidative status, skin colour and bone characteristics were evaluated in a field trial in Colombia and also under controlled experimental conditions in Canada. The...

Egg-derived tri-peptide IRW exerts antihypertensive effects in spontaneously hypertensive rats
Download2013
Majumder, Kaustav, Kaufman, Susan, Chakrabarti, Subhadeep, Morton, Jude S., Panahi, Sareh, Wu, Jianping, Davidge, Sandra T.
Background There is a growing interest in using functional food components as therapy for cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. We have previously characterized a tri-peptide IRW (Ile-Arg-Trp) from egg white protein ovotransferrin; this peptide showed anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and...

Fall 2022
Contraction-mediated inhibition of sympathetic vasoconstriction (sympatholysis) is enhanced in female compared with male rats. Acute pharmacological blockade of nitric oxide (NO) production abolished the sex difference in sympatholysis, indicating that NO-mediated sympatholysis is elevated in...

Pulses of ecdysone, a steroid hormone, play an integral role during insect development however, how these ecdysone pulses are regulated has been relatively unexplored. I have shown that the presence of nitric oxide (NO) within the larval prothoracic gland (PG), the principal source of larval...
