A mechanistic model of intermittent gastric emptying and glucose-insulin dynamics following a meal containing milk components
Download2016
Cant, John P., Steele, Michael A., Stahel, Priska, MacPherson, Jayden A. R., Berends, Harma
To support decision-making around diet selection choices to manage glycemia following a meal, a novel mechanistic model of intermittent gastric emptying and plasma glucose-insulin dynamics was developed. Model development was guided by postprandial timecourses of plasma glucose, insulin and the...

A Novel Comparative Analysis Approach to Personalize Chemotherapy Dose Calculation in Early Breast Cancer
DownloadFall 2018
Background Worldwide, body surface area [BSA] is used to calculate chemotherapy dose. The BSA formula was originally developed in 1916, derived from height and weight, with no consideration of other patient characteristics. Most chemotherapy agents have a narrow therapeutic index and are...

Amino Acid Utilization in Seeds of Loblolly Pine during Germination and Early Seedling Growth: I. Arginine and Arginase Activity
Download1997
Abstract: The mobilization and utilization of the major storage proteins in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) seeds following imbibition were investigated. Most of the seed protein reserves were contained within the megagametophyte. Breakdown of these proteins occurred primarily following radicle...

Body Composition Assessment in Pediatric Obesity: Reliability, Validity, and Clinical Applications
DownloadFall 2020
Adipose tissue and skeletal muscle have unique metabolic roles. Despite body mass index for age and sex (BMI z-score) being historically widely used to evaluate and monitor health status in children with obesity, it does not depict adiposity and muscularity (or their changes) during growth or...

Carbohydrate-lipid interactions: Affinities of methylmannose polysaccharides for lipids in aqueous solution
Download2012
Sun, Nian, Klassen, John S., Bai, Yu, Liu, Lan, Xia, Li, Lowary, Todd L.
The interactions between 3-O-methyl-mannose polysaccharides (MMPs), extracted from Mycobacterium smegmatis (consisting of a mixture of MMP-10, -11, -12 and -13) or obtained by chemical synthesis (MMP-5s, -8s, -11s and -14s), and linear saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (FAs), and a commercial...

Characterization of the Mitochondrial Phenotype Associated with Primary Biliary Cholangitis
DownloadSpring 2017
Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease characterized by the immune-mediated destruction of intra-hepatic bile ducts. The autoimmune nature of PBC involves humoral and cell-mediated responses that target endogenous mitochondrial proteins. It is thought that the breakdown of...

Chemical, Enzymatic and Chemo-enzymatic Synthesis of Complex Oligosaccharides as Probes of Glycan Functions
DownloadSpring 2016
Carbohydrates, an essential class of biomolecules, mediate a variety of biological processes. Recent advances in chemical, enzymatic and chemo-enzymatic synthesis have facilitated access to an increasing number of structurally well-defined oligosaccharides. These molecules are serving as...
