A Biochemical and Biophysical Comparison of Fetal and Adult Bovine Liver Plasma Membranes.
… from homogenates of adult and 5 month fetal bovine liver. Discontinuous sucrose density gradients were used during zonal centrifugation which yielded two fractions of plasma membrane from each source. In both the adult and fetal samples a light plasma membrane fraction banded at 33 percent …

Characterisation of the sulfotransferases catalysing the sulfation of xenobiotics and steroids in bovine liver
… on the activity of specific isoforms. As the liver is the major drug metabolising organ in the body, it is essential to study expression and activity of cytosolic liver sulfotransferases. Hepatocytes contain DMEs and drug transporters along with all the necessary cofactors that represent in …

Use of Molecular Methods to Authenticate Animal Species and Tissue in Bovine Liver Dietary Supplements
<p>Dietary supplements containing bovine (subfamily Bovinae) liver are susceptible to fraud due to the lack of modern detection methods available for processed animal tissues and premium pricing for dietary supplements. Therefore, the objective of this research was to use molecular methods to …

Developmental and Growth Hormone Regulation of the Expression of Liver-Enriched Transcription Factors in Bovine Liver
Liver gene expression changes during development and is affected by growth hormone (GH). These changes in gene expression may be due to the differential expression of the liver-enriched transcription factors (LETFs). To study the potential involvement of LETFs in the regulation of gene expression …

Effect of Postmortem Time and Preservation Fluid on the Tensile Material Properties of Bovine Liver Parenchyma
The liver is one of the most frequently injured abdominal organs in motor vehicle collisions. Although previous studies have quantified the tensile failure properties of human liver parenchyma at 48hrs postmortem, it is currently unknown how the material properties change between time of death and …

Aspects of the hemes and modulation of hydrogen donors in catalases from bovine liver, yeast, and escherichia coli
… the His74 distal axial ligand of the heme in the bovine liver enzyme, and Asn201 is believed to be a residue critical to the function of the enzyme because of its role in orienting and interacting with the substrate molecule. Investigation of the nature of the hemes via absorption spectroscopy of …

Mechanisms of Growth Hormone Regulation of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Gene Expression in Liver
… growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene expression in liver. Previous studies have suggested that GH regulation of IGF-I gene expression in liver is mediated by binding of the transcription factor signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 5 to four binding sites located distantly from the …

Effects of Reduced Phenolic Acids on Ruminant Hepatic Metabolism
… 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic (4OHPPA) acids on bovine liver tissue and ovine hepatocyte metabolism in vitro were investigated. All the reduced phenolics inhibited gluconeogenesis from propionate in bovine liver tissue at.4 mM and BA, PPA, and CA inhibited it at.2 mM. Oxidation of palmitate was …

Characterizing the Biomechanical Response of Liver
… collisions can result in life threatening liver injuries. Dummies are utilized to study injury in motor vehicle collisions; however, no crash test dummies are currently equipped to represent individual solid organs. This has increased the use of finite element models to help reduce these …

A study of microwave TDFT applicator design for low power cancer ablation
… fabricated and tested in egg-white solution and bovine liver. A good agreement between the measured and simulated results were observed where overall efficiency of 99.99% was recorded at the operating frequency. Ablation experiments were conducted in egg-white solution and bovine liver for 1W …

Studies on some enzymatic properties of mitochondrial propionyl carboxylase
Propionyl carboxylase purified from bovine liver mitochondria catalyzes the carboxylation of 992 micromoles of propionyl-CoA per hour per milligram of protein. Relative carboxylation rates for acetyl-, propionyl-, butyryl-, and valeryl-CoA remain constant during purification. The carboxylase is …
