Digestive and locomotor capacity show opposing responses to changing food availability in an ambush predatory fish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Metabolic rates vary widely within species, but little is known about how variation in the “floor” (i.e. standard metabolic rate in ectotherms; SMR) and “ceiling” (maximum metabolic rate; MMR) for an individual's aerobic scope (AS) are linked with the ...

A Novel Lightweight Wearable Soft Exosuit for Reducing the Metabolic Rate and Muscle Fatigue

open access: yesBiosensors, 2021
Wearable robotic devices have been proved to considerably reduce the energy expenditure of human walking. It is not only suitable for healthy people, but also for some patients who require rehabilitation exercises.

Resting Metabolic Rate of Individuals

open access: yesMetabolites, 2023
The resting metabolic rate (RMR) represents the energy required to sustain normal body functions and homeostasis in an awake individual under ambient thermoneutral conditions and during rest [...]

Structural Kinetic Modeling of Metabolic Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
To develop and investigate detailed mathematical models of cellular metabolic processes is one of the primary challenges in systems biology. However, despite considerable advance in the topological analysis of metabolic networks, explicit kinetic ...

Triple Oxygen Isotope Measurements (Δ'17O) of Body Water Reflect Water Intake, Metabolism, and δ18O of Ingested Water in Passerines

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Understanding physiological traits and ecological conditions that influence a species reliance on metabolic water is critical to creating accurate physiological models that can assess their ability to adapt to environmental perturbations (e.g., drought ...

The relationship between metabolic rate and sociability is altered by food-deprivation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Individuals vary in the extent to which they associate with conspecifics, but little is known about the energetic underpinnings of this variation in sociability. Group-living allows individuals to find food more consistently, but within groups, there can

Leptin Expression Affects Metabolic Rate in Zebrafish Embryos (D. rerio)

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2013
We used antisense morpholino oligonucleotide technology to knockdown leptin-(A) gene expression in developing zebrafish embryos and measured its effects on metabolic rate and cardiovascular function.

Modular footwear that partially offsets downhill or uphill grades minimizes the metabolic cost of human walking [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
Walking on different grades becomes challenging on energetic and muscular levels compared to level walking. While it is not possible to eliminate the cost of raising or lowering the centre of mass (COM), it could be possible to minimize the cost of ...

High cycling cadence reduces carbohydrate oxidation at given low intensity metabolic rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Cycling cadence (RPM)-related differences in blood lactate concentration (BLC) increase with increasing exercise intensity, whilst corresponding divergences in oxygen uptake (VO2) and carbon dioxde production (VCO2) decrease.

A Rate Distortion approach to protein symmetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A spontaneous symmetry breaking argument is applied to the problem of protein form, via a Rate Distortion analysis of the relation between genome coding and the final condensation of the protein 'molten globule'.
