EFFECT OF LEVELS OF ANIMAL DIETARY PROTEIN AND PROBIOTIC ADDITIVES (SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE AND BACILLUS SUBTILIS) ON INSULIN, TSH AND GROWTH HORMON OF AWASSI SHEEP

Al-Qadisiyah Journal For Agriculture Sciences, 2020
To maintain the body on its metabolic activities, including catabolic and anabolic processes, it needs tools. Insulin, thyroxine, growth hormone and other hormones are considered the tools that contribute to regulate metabolism in living organism.

Ubiquitin Ligases at the Heart of Skeletal Muscle Atrophy Control

Molecules, 2021
Skeletal muscle loss is a detrimental side-effect of numerous chronic diseases that dramatically increases mortality and morbidity. The alteration of protein homeostasis is generally due to increased protein breakdown while, protein synthesis may also be

Perioperative amino acid infusion reestablishes muscle net balance during total hip arthroplasty

Physiological Reports, 2021
Surgery and anesthesia induce a catabolic response that leads to skeletal muscle protein loss. Previous investigations have observed positive effects of perioperative nutrition.

Electrode Potential Dependency of Single-Cell Activity Identifies the Energetics of Slow Microbial Electron Uptake Process

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Electrochemical measurements have been widely applied to study microbial extracellular electron transport processes. However, because electrochemistry detects not only microbial electron transport but also other reactions, background signals comparable ...

Recent advances of γ-aminobutyric acid: Physiological and immunity function, enrichment, and metabolic pathway

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a non-protein amino acid which naturally and widely occurs in animals, plants, and microorganisms. As the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system of mammals, it has become a popular dietary supplement

Comparable Rates of Integrated Myofibrillar Protein Synthesis Between Endurance-Trained Master Athletes and Untrained Older Individuals

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
BackgroundAn impaired muscle anabolic response to exercise and protein nutrition is thought to underpin age-related muscle loss, which may be exacerbated by aspects of biological aging that may not be present in older individuals who have undertaken long-

A Fenchone Derivative Effectively Abrogates Joint Damage Following Post-Traumatic Osteoarthritis in Lewis Rats

Cells, 2022
Background: In a previous report, we have identified the cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2) agonist HU308 to possess a beneficial effect in preventing age and trauma-induced osteoarthritis (OA) in mice. The effects of HU308 were largely related to the capacity
