To boldly gulp: standard metabolic rate and boldness have context-dependent influences on risk-taking to breathe air in a catfish [PDF]
, 2015 The African sharptooth catfish Clarias gariepinus has bimodal respiration, it has a suprabranchial air-breathing organ alongside substantial gills. We used automated bimodal respirometry to reveal that undisturbed juvenile catfish (N=29) breathed air ...

Adiponectin Deficiency Impairs Maternal Metabolic Adaptation to Pregnancy in Mice. [PDF]
, 2017 Hypoadiponectinemia has been widely observed in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). To investigate the causal role of hypoadiponectinemia in GDM, adiponectin gene knockout (Adipoq-/- ) and wild-type (WT) mice were crossed to produce ...

Resource allocation, hyperphagia and compensatory growth [PDF]
, 2004 Organisms often shown enhanced growth during recovery from starvation, and can even overtake continuously fed conspecifics (overcompensation). In an earlier paper (Ecology 84, 2777-2787), we studied the relative role played by hyperphagia and resource ...

Metabolism and thermoregulation in the tree shrew, Tupaia belangeri [PDF]
Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2012 Maximum metabolic rate is a physiological limitation that is an important for animals' survival, reproduction and geographic. Basal metabolic rate (BMR), nonshivering thermogenesis (NST), and maximum metabolic rate (MMR) were measured was in a small ...

An evaluation of basal metabolic rate among healthy individuals — a cross-sectional study
Bulletin of Faculty of Physical Therapy, 2023 Background The main source of daily energy requirement in Asian societies is basal metabolic rate (BMR). Even though the reason for this fluctuation is debatable, prior research have shown that BMR is highly varied in individuals. All studies concur that

Inverse association of circulating SIRT1 and adiposity. A study on underweight, normal weight, and obese patients [PDF]
, 2018 Context: Sirtuins (SIRTs) are NAD+-dependent deacetylases, cellular sensors to detect energy availability, and modulate metabolic processes. SIRT1, the most studied family member, influences a number of tissues including adipose tissue.

Aging, Basal Metabolic Rate, and Nutrition.
Nippon Ronen Igakkai Zasshi. Japanese Journal of Geriatrics, 1993 Age is one of the most important factor of changes in energy metabolism. The basal metabolic rate decreases almost linearly with age. Skeletal musculature is a fundamental organ that consumes the largest part of energy in the normal human body. The total volume of skeletal muscle can be estimated by 24-hours creatinine excretion. The volume of skeletal

Incubation temperature and physiological aging in the zebra finch.
PLoS ONE, 2021 In birds, incubation temperature has received increased attention as an important source of phenotypic variability in offspring. A lower than optimal incubation temperature may negatively affect aspects of nestling physiology, such as body growth and ...
