Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common chronic liver diseases worldwide. It is a clinical pathological state characterized by the accumulation of triacylglycerol (TG) in hepatocytes. It can progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and in some cases to fibrosis...

Phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) is a hepatic enzyme that converts phosphatidylethanolamine to phosphatidylcholine. Pemt-/- mice are protected from obesity and insulin resistance, a phenotype that is reversed with dietary choline supplementation. Additionally, PEMT deficiency...

Role of starch chemistry in the kinetics of nutrient absorption, endocrine profile, and intestinal health in swine
DownloadFall 2011
Starch is a major source of energy for monogastric species. Although starch digestibility is understood, the role of starch chemistry on nutrient absorption, endocrine function and gut health is not. Therefore, the objective was to characterize the role of starches with a range in amylose content...

Ruminal methanogenesis is a microbial fermentive process conducted by methanogens, releasing methane (CH4) gas through eruction, and resulting in a dietary energy loss to the host animals and a contribution to greenhouse gas emissions by the agricultural industry. However, the association amongst...
