Relation of BMI to a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measure of fatness [PDF]

, 2017
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a valid technique for measuring the fat, bone and lean (muscle, organs and water) masses of the body. We evaluated relationships of BMI (kg/m2) with independent measurements of fat and lean masses using DXA in ...

ATP13A2 is involved in intracellular polyamine transport in lung epithelial cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Spermidine transport in lung epithelial cells involves the polyamine transporter ATP13A2. Cell proliferation is associated with the upregulation of ATP13A2. Polyamines are present in all living cells and are implicated in various crucial cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy.

Fat and Lean Mass Predict Bone Mass During Energy Restriction in Sedentary and Exercising Rodents

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Energy restriction (ER) causes bone loss, but the impact of exercise during ER is less understood. In this study, we examined the impact of metabolic hormones and body composition on both total body bone mineral content (BMC) and local (proximal tibia ...

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Muscular Strength and Body Composition Comparison Between the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Fire and Police Departments [PDF]

, 2008
Firefighters and police have different physical job requirements and selection processes. Firefighters have on-duty exercise time and police do not. This could affect body composition and strength.

D-tubocurarine dosage based on lean body mass [PDF]

Canadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1972
The dosage of D-tubocurarine recommended varies greatly with different authors. The body build, reflected in the lean body mass (LBM), influences the dose. The dose which produces a 90-95 per cent depression of neuromuscular blockade is better correlated to the lean body mass than the body weight Age and body somatotype influence this dosage.

Multi‐omics and low‐input proteomics profiling reveals dynamic regulation driving pluripotency initiation in early mouse embryos

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Mouse pre‐implantation development involves a transition from totipotency to pluripotency. Integrating transcriptomics, epigenetic profiling, low‐input proteomics and functional assays, we show that eight‐cell embryos retain residual totipotency features, whereas cytoskeletal remodeling regulated by the ubiquitin‐proteasome system drives progression ...

HALOTHANE DOSAGE BASED ON LEAN BODY MASS

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1969
SUMMARY In sixteen cases the lean body mass (LBM) was calculated from height, girth and body weight measurements. Using the maximum anaesthetic blood level (MABL) as an end-point, the amount of halothane taken up by the body was related to this lean body mass. The ventilation required to bring the halothane blood level to MABL was also related.

Lean body mass, gastric acid, and peptic ulcer [PDF]

Gut, 1969
Peak acid outputs in normal subjects and patients with duodenal and gastric ulcer were significantly (and similarly) correlated with body weight and calculated lean body mass. Expression of measurements of peak acid output as a function of body weight or lean body mass lessened but did not abolish the significance of the situation that ...

Plyometric exercise combined with high-intensity interval training improves metabolic abnormalities in young obese females more so than interval training alone [PDF]

, 2015
International audienceThe aim of this study was to compare the effects of 12 weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with the effects of 12 weeks of plyometric exercise combined with HIIT (P+HIIT) on anthropometric, biochemical, and physical ...
