Investigation of the Role of TOR and Nutrient Restriction on Lifespan of Arabidopsis thaliana
… such as yeast, fruit flies and mice. Abundant nutrient availability promotes rapid growth and development, whereas depletion of nutrients reduces the activity of the pathways that are involved in growth and nutrient processing. This reduction in activity increases life expectancy, which is …

The effects of early life nutrient restriction on the cardiovascular system of the adult sheep
… gestation (U) when they received 50% of total nutrient requirements. Offspring of groups C & U were then fed ad libitum (CC & UC) or at a level that reduced body weight to 85% of individual target weight from 12 to 25 weeks postnatal age (CU & UU). The adult sheep cardiovascular function was …

Aggressive Behavioral Phenotype in Intrauterine Growth Restricted (IUGR) Baboons Exposed to Moderate Nutrient Restriction Early in Development
… fitted to an environment of decreased later-life nutrient availability. Because organisms have physiological mechanisms for coping with poor nutrition, they may have sociobehavioral mechanisms as well. Aggressive behavior, especially in the context of feeding competition, may be advantageous in …

Nutrient Restriction Effects on Ovulatory Follicle and Corpus Luteum Development and Progesterone Production of Bos taurus Cows
… The objective of this study was to determine if nutrient restriction impacts ovulatory follicle size and corpus luteum (CL) development and function of Bos taurus cows enrolled in estrous synchronization. A total of 26 Angus cows were housed in a facility equipped with a Calan gate system for …

Growth Promoting Implants and Nutrient Restriction Prior to Feeding: Effect on Carcass Composition, Carcass Quality, and Consumer Acceptability of Beef
<p>Implant strategy and nutrient restriction prior to finishing may alter feedlot performance, as well as carcass characteristics and consumer acceptability of beef. The objectives of these studies were to determine the effect of prefinishing implant strategy and plane of nutrition on prefinishing …

TARGETING CANCER METABOLISM WITH FASTING-MIMICKING DIET¿BASED LOW-TOXIC COMBINATION THERAPIES: OVERCOMING RESISTANCE THROUGH METABOLIC SYNERGY
… instability, telomere attrition, deregulated nutrient sensing, and chronic inflammation promoting malignant transformation. Among age-associated cancers, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most prevalent and lethal, with KRAS mutations occurring in up to 25–30% of lung adenocarcinomas. …

Nutritional Strategies to Improve Pig Growth and Performance
… growth. Growth rate is reduced during neonatal nutrient restriction possibly due to altered satellite cell activity which can permanently alter growth potential. Therefore, optimal nutrition is important for maximizing the growth potential of the animal. Heat stress leads to changes in digestion …

An evaluation of the effects of floor space and lysine deficient diets on the growth rate of finishing pigs and an analysis of post-restriction compensatory gain
… period (where pigs are fed a diet meeting its nutrient requirements) than pigs fed an adequate diet the entire period. Additionally, following research performed in 2020, showing negative carcass effects when assessed at the end of the restrictive period, it was questioned whether those …
