Fall 2013
There is a general agreement that a relationship exists between health literacy (HL) and health outcomes. Nonetheless, there are critical gaps in the measurement of HL and in the evidence on the impact of inadequate HL on health outcomes, especially in the diabetes population. These gaps need to...

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...

Histories, Bodies, Stories, Hungers: The Colonial Origins of Diabetes as a Health Disparity among Indigenous Peoples in Canada
DownloadFall 2018
Indigenous people in Canada suffer disproportionately from health disparities, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes, and I have explored these health disparities among Indigenous peoples through the lens of embodiment. Framed within the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) model,...

Spring 2022
Background: In metabolic disease statues, such as diabetes and obesity, dyslipidemia is characterized by a dysregulation of lipid homeostasis, due in part to elevated triglyceride (TG)-rich very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL-TG) production and secretion by the liver. Further, these metabolic...

Identifying carbohydrate ligands of a norovirus P particle using a catch and release electrospray ionization mass spectrometry assay
Download2014
Jiang, Xi, Kitova, Elena N., Klassen, John S., Tan, Ming, Han, Ling
Noroviruses (NoVs), the major cause of epidemic acute gastroenteritis, recognize human histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs), which are present as free oligosaccharides in bodily fluid or glycolipids and glycoproteins on the surfaces of cells. The subviral P particle formed by the protruding (P)...

Impaired de novo choline synthesis explains why phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase-deficient mice are protected from diet-induced obesity
Download2010
Kuo, Ming-Shang, Dyck, Jason R. B., Sletten, Torunn, Proctor, Spencer D., Jacobs, René L., Lingrell, Susanne, Cao, Guoqing, Peake, David A., Kennedy, Brian P., Zhao, Yang, Vance, Dennis E., Koonen, Debby P. Y., Su, Brian
Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is synthesized from choline via the CDP-choline pathway. Liver cells can also synthesize PC via the sequential methylation of phosphatidylethanolamine, catalyzed by phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT). The current study investigates whether or not hepatic...

In-line Ozonolysis coupled to Mass Spectrometry- A New Dimension of Structural Determination for Lipids
DownloadFall 2014
The location of double bonds within unsaturated lipids can greatly affect their biological functions. Liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC/MS) has become a powerful tool for lipid separation and structural elucidation. However, the determination of double bond position remains...

Insulin and testosterone are associated with elevated intestinal secretion of lipids and lipoproteins in a rodent model of the metabolic and polycystic ovary syndrome
Download2014
Wang, Ye, Shi, Danni, Proctor, Spencer D., Vine, Donna F.
The metabolic syndrome is highly associated with the incidence of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). The metabolic aberrations of insulin resistance and hyperandrogenemia have been proposed to contribute to the development of dyslipidemia and increased Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) risk in PCOS....
