Somatotropin-induced protein anabolism in hindquarters and portal-drained viscera of growing pigs

American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2003
To differentiate the effect of somatotropin (ST) treatment on protein metabolism in the hindquarter (HQ) and portal-drained viscera (PDV), growing swine ( n = 20) treated with ST (0 or 150 μg · kg−1 · day−1) for 7 days were infused intravenously with NaH13CO3 and [2H5]phenylalanine and enterally with [1-13C]phenylalanine while in the fed state ...

Influences of nifedipine on vascular conductance of portally drained viscera, liver and kidney

European Journal of Pharmacology, 1989
Nifedipine is a potent vasodilator, which induces various dose-related hemodynamic responses in the gastrointestinal tract, liver and kidney. Blood flow was assessed in anesthetized dogs with non-cannulating electromagnetic flow sensors. Nifedipine was injected into a brachial vein at intervals of 2 min in graded doses from 1-16 micrograms.kg-1.

Portal‐drained viscera heat production in Iberian pigs fed betaine‐ and conjugated linoleic acid‐supplemented diets

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2016
AbstractBACKGROUNDBetaine and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) may alter growth and body composition in pigs, although their mode of action is not well understood. Portal‐drained viscera (PDV) have a disproportionate influence with respect to their masses, and this may affect the productivity of more profitable tissues. The objective of this study was to

Net uptakes of oestradiol-17β and progesterone across the portal-drained viscera and the liver of ewes

Journal of Endocrinology, 1994
Abstract The objective of this study was to determine whether circulating concentrations or prior exposure to oestradiol-17β (OE2) and progesterone affected their uptake by splanchnic tissues. Catheters were surgically placed in the portal vein, a branch of the hepatic vein, a mesenteric vein and the abdominal aorta of three multiparous ...

Oxygen consumption by and blood flow across the portal-drained viscera and liver of pregnant ewes.

Journal of Animal Science, 1997
The energy requirement of ewes increases during pregnancy. In late pregnancy, approximately 40% of the increase in heat production can be attributed to increases in heat production by nonreproductive tissues. The objective of this study was to determine the pattern of oxygen consumption by the portal-drained viscera (PDV) and liver during pregnancy to ...

Use of para-amino hippuric acid to measure blood flows through portal-drained-viscera, liver and hindquarters in sheep

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1994
SUMMARYThe objectives of this study were (i) to evaluate a new surgical procedure to catheterize hepatic vessels as well as the posterior aorta and vena cava, (ii) to test a modification of a downstream dilution technique in order to measure blood flows through splanchnic tissues and hindquarters in rapid succession, and (iii) to improve the ...

Simultaneous measurement of metabolic flux in portally-drained viscera, liver, spleen, kidney and hindquarter in the conscious pig

Laboratory Animals, 1996
A method was developed to measure metabolic fluxes simultaneously across the portally-drained viscera (PDV), liver, spleen, kidney and hindquarter (HQ) in the conscious pig (20-25 kg). For this purpose, sampling catheters were implanted in the abdominal artery, portal vein, hepatic vein, splenic vein, renal vein and caval vein.

Effects of dietary clenbuterol on net flux across the portal-drained viscera, liver and hindquarters of steers (Bos taurus)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Comparative Pharmacology, 1993
1. Addition of the beta-adrenergic agonist clenbuterol to the diet of steers increased blood flow in portal-drained viscera, liver and tissues of the hindquarters. 2. Uptake of oxygen increased with clenbuterol feeding in hindquarters but not portal-drained viscera or liver. 3.

Contribution of portal‐drained viscera to heat production in Iberian gilts fed a low‐protein diet: comparison to Landrace

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2015
AbstractBACKGROUNDIn terms of whole‐body metabolism, visceral tissues have a disproportionate influence with respect to their masses, and under certain circumstances their high metabolic rate may compromise nutrient availability to the tissues of productive/economic interest.

Metabolite flux across portal-drained viscera, liver, and hindquarters of hyperinsulinemic, euglycemic beef steers.

Journal of animal science, 1995
Metabolic response to i.v., exogenous insulin was characterized in three younger (355 d old, 340 kg BW) and four older (480 d old, 456 kg BW) beef steers. The steers had chronic indwelling catheters to allow measurement of blood flow and net flux of metabolites across portal-drained viscera (PDV), liver, and hindquarters (HQ).
