"Type-2 diabetes is increasing in aboriginal children and adolescents and must be distinguished from type-1 diabetes in this population. The absence of diabetes-associated autoantibodies supports the clinical impression of type-2 diabetes in the affected members of this population." (as cited in...

Diabetes-prone BioBreeding rats do not have a normal immune response when weaned to a diet containing fermentable fibre
Download2004
Bell, Rhonda C., Field, Catherine J., Stillie, RoseMarie
Diet is known to modulate the development of diabetes in diabetes-prone BioBreeding (BBdp) rats. The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of fermentable fibre (FF) on immune function in BBdp and diabetes-resistant BioBreeding (BBdr) rats after weaning. Weanling BBdp...

Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) activity in relation to muscle fat content and DGAT1 genotype in two different breeds of Bos taurus
Download2006-01-01
Sorensen, Brent M., Kühn, Christa, Teuscher, Friedrich, Schneider, Falk, Weselake, Randall J., Wegner, Jochen J.
To circumvent the obvious waste of resources when producing good marbled beef, research is needed to clarify mechanisms which are involved in intramuscular fat storage in cattle. The possible association between the activity of diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) and muscle fat content was...

Diagenesis in limestone-dolostone successions after 1 million years of sea level fluctuations: A case study from Grand Cayman, British West Indies.
Download2016-01-01
Meteoric diagenesis in young marine carbonate sediments has commonly been linked to fluctuations in Quaternary glacio-eustatic sea levels. The extent to which these sea-level changes are recorded in these carbonate successions, however, remains questionable. This is amply demonstrated by the...

Diagenetic overprint on negative <delta>13C excursions across the Permian/Triassic boundary: A case study from Meishan section, China.
Download2017-01-01
The Meishan Section D from China is the global stratotype section and point (GSSP) of the Permian-Triassic boundary (PTB). The succession has been divided into 115 beds with the PTB being placed in the middle of Bed 27. In this section and the laterally equivalent Section A, the diagenetic...

Diet and environment shape fecal bacterial microbiota composition and enteric pathogen load of grizzly bears
Download2011-01-01
Northrup, Joseph M., Cristescu, Bogdan, Schwab, Clarissa, Stenhouse, Gordon B., Gänzle, Michael G.
Background Diet and environment impact the composition of mammalian intestinal microbiota; dietary or health disturbances trigger alterations in intestinal microbiota composition and render the host susceptible to enteric pathogens. To date no long term monitoring data exist on the fecal...

Diet and Growth of Northern Pike in the Absence of Prey Fishes: Initial Consequences for Persisting in Disturbance-Prone Lakes.
Download2006
Venturelli, P. A., Tonn, W. M.
The northern pike Esox lucius is a renowned piscivore, but will prey opportunistically on invertebrates (e.g., in small lakes of boreal Alberta, where winterkill can unexpectedly reduce or eliminate prey fishes). We emulated such a disturbance by stocking a fishless lake with northern pike and...
