The L-cell in nutritional sensing and the regulation of appetite

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2015
The gastrointestinal tract senses the ingestion of food and responds by signalling to the brain to promote satiation and satiety. Representing an important part of the gut-brain axis, enteroendocrine Lcells secrete the anorectic peptide hormones glucagon-

Does macronutrient consumption affect aerobic capacity? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Fitness in the United States is declining as the prevalence of obesity rises. It is known generally that exercise and diet both play a part in becoming fit, therefore veering away from being obese and/or overweight.

An ultra‐processed food‐based cafeteria diet induces obesity, metabolic dysfunction, and tissue‐specific gene dysregulation in C57BL/6 mice

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This schematic figure illustrates the experimental design and key findings of the study. Forty male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to either a standard diet control group or a cafeteria diet (CAFD) group for 16 weeks. CAFD induces obesity, insulin resistance (HOMA‐IR), hepatic steatosis, and dysregulation of a number of genes in visceral and subcutaneous ...

Using foliar applications of magnesium and potassium to improve yields and some qualitative parameters of vine grapes (Vitis vinifera L.)

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2015
In a three-year field experiment (2011-2013) we assessed the effect of magnesium (MgSO4) and potassium (K2SO4) applied as foliar applications both separately (3.86 kg Mg/ha or 12.44 kg K/ha) and in combination (1.93 kg Mg/ha + 6.22 kg K/ha) on yields of ...

Estimation of the dietary nutrient profile of free-roaming feral cats: possible implications for nutrition of domestic cats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Cats are strict carnivores and in the wild rely on a diet solely based on animal tissues to meet their specific and unique nutritional requirements. Although the feeding ecology of cats in the wild has been well documented in the literature, there is no ...

Exploring the potential of ucuúba (Virola surinamensis) seed fat

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Ucuúba (Virola surinamensis) fat is an important income source for Amazonian communities. Local businesses typically process whole seeds for fat extraction; however, seed structural integrity may influence extraction efficiency and fat quality.

Accurate identification of nitrogen fertilizer application of paddy rice using laser-induced fluorescence combined with support vector machine

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2015
To identify accurately the doses of nitrogen (N) fertilizer and improve the photosynthetic efficiency of paddy rice, laser induced fluorescence (LIF) technique combined with the support vector machine (SVM) and principal component analysis (PCA) is ...
