Energy methods and measurements for a twelve-year-old girl walking and climbing up and down steps with and without books
… for a particular activity with one child. 3. Basal metabolism tests should be made near the time that activity studies are to be made. 4. The actual protein content of the diet should be known and used in the Weir formula for accurate energy determinations. 5. Energy expenditure studies are …

Characterization of Metabolic Differences in Benign, Slow Developing and Tumor Initiating Ovarian Cancers
… as a valuable model for studying ovarian cancer metabolism. Treating the MOSE cells with the naturally occurring chemotherapeutic agent sphingosine decreased p-AKT protein levels in the cell, decreased the glycolytic rate and decreased de novo cholesterol synthesis. Cancer stem cells are known to …

Buried Surface Horizons in Saskatchewan Croplands Provide Insight into Microbial Soil Carbon Cycling and Development of Persistent Organic Matter
… but had a lower calorespirometric ratio under basal metabolism (841 vs 3106 kJ mol-1 CO2-C), suggesting communities are adapted to intense C recycling due to energy limitations of the buried C. This research highlights the co-development of distinct microbial communities with persistent C in …

Genetic characterisation of the Drosophila Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter in physiological and neurodegenerative contexts
… calcium dynamics, which play a crucial role in basal metabolism and cell death, have potential to be a key player in the disease process. Though mitochondrial calcium influx had long been observed through electrophysiology and other work, the genetic basis for this process has only recently been …

Photorespiration in Arabidopsis thaliana : natürliche Evolution und gentechnologische Modifikation
… between peroxisomal and mitochondrial glycolate metabolism. In the first part of this work the importance of mitochondrial glycolate metabolism was analyzed with respect to photorespiration. The reduction of the photorespiratory parameters PIB (post illumination CO2 burst) and …

The effects of the menstrual cycle and hormonal contraceptives on the central thermoeffector threshold temperatures and width of the interthreshold zone
Basal body temperature (BBT) and thermoeffector thresholds increase following ovulation in many women. This study investigated if solely central thermoregulatory alterations are responsible. Seven females in a non-contraceptive group (NCG) were compared with 5 monophasic contraceptive users (HCG) …

INSIGHT ON ANGPTL3 IMPACT ON HEPATIC METABOLISM AND FUNCTION
… its effect on hepatic homeostasis and metabolism is still unclear. This work aims to unravel the autocrine effects of ANGPTL3 within the liver and its systemic impact on peripheral organs. The liver plays a key role in systemic metabolism, substrates management and partitioning, …

The Effect of Exercise on Metabolic Rate with Time in Overweight and Normal Weight Subjects
… a daily exercising regimen for one week.</p> <p>Basal metabolic tests were taken before the start of the exercise program and on each morning prior to the selected exercise. Metabolic rate tests were also taken four hours and eight hours following each exercise. At least a four day interval …
