Plant sn‐Glycerol‐3‐Phosphate Acyltransferases: Biocatalysts Involved in the Biosynthesis of Intracellular and Extracellular Lipids
Download2018-05-31
Jayawardhane, Kethmi N., Singer, Stacy D., Weselake, Randall J., Chen, Guanqun
Acyl‐lipids such as intracellular phospholipids, galactolipids, sphingolipids, and surface lipids play a crucial role in plant cells by serving as major components of cellular membranes, seed storage oils, and extracellular lipids such as cutin and suberin. Plant lipids are also widely used to...

PolySearch: A web-based text mining system for extracting relationships between human diseases, genes, mutations, drugs and metabolites
Download2008
Cheng, Dean, Stothard, Paul, Damaraju, Sambasivarao, Wishart, David S., Knox, Craig, Young, Nelson
A particular challenge in biomedical text mining is to find ways of handling ‘comprehensive’ or ‘associative’ queries such as ‘Find all genes associated with breast cancer’. Given that many queries in genomics, proteomics or metabolomics involve these kind of comprehensive searches we believe...

Pork is the most widely eaten meat in the world, but typical feeding practices give it a high omega-6 (n-6) to omega-3 (n-3) fatty acid ratio and make it a poor source of n-3 fatty acids. Feeding pigs n-3 fatty acids can increase their contents in pork, and in countries where label claims are...

Liang, Guanxiang, Bao, Hua, Guan, Leluo, Griebel, Philip J., Stothard, Paul, McFadden, Thomas B., Malmuthuge, Nilusha
This study aimed to investigate the potential regulatory role of miRNAs in the development of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) during the early life of dairy calves. Rumen and small intestinal (mid-jejunum and ileum) tissue samples were collected from newborn (30 min after birth; n = 3), 7-day-old...

Johnson Stoklossa, Carlene A., Forhan, Mary, Padwal, Raj S., Gonzalez, Maria Cristina, Prado, Carla M.
Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to explore the practical considerations for body composition assessment of adults with class II/III obesity. Studies assessing adults (18–64 years) with a body mass index (BMI) ≥35 kg/m2 with bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and/or dual-energy...

Prebiotics, FODMAPs and dietary fiber - conflicting concepts in development of functional food products?
Download2018-01-01
Yan, Ya Lu, Hu, Ying, Gänzle, Michael G.
The term prebiotic relates to beneficial modulation of intestinal microbiota by dietary carbohydrates, however, uncertainties of the differentiation of the term 'prebiotics' from dietary fiber as well as FODMAPs impede development of functional foods containing prebiotics. This communication...

Bell, Rhonda C., Maximova, Katerina, Jessri, Mahsa, Farmer, Anna, Willows, Noreen
Background Despite growing evidence that supports the importance of 6-month exclusive breastfeeding, few Canadian mothers adhere to this, and early weaning onto solids is a common practice. This study assessed infant feeding transitions during the first 6 months postpartum and factors that...
