ΠΡΩΤΕΙΝΙΚΟΣ ΚΑΤΑΒΟΛΙΣΜΟΣ ΜΕΤΑ ΑΠΟ ΟΞΕΑ ΑΓΓΕΙΑΚΑ ΕΓΚΕΦΑΛΙΚΑ ΕΠΕΙΣΟΔΙΑ
… THE URINE U/C2 RATIO CAN BE USED AS AN INDEX OF PROTEIN CATABOLISM IN CLINICAL PRACTICE. 2) SEVERE PROTEIN CATABOLISM OCCURS DURING THE DAYS WHICH FOLLOW A STROKE ATTACK. THEDEGREE OF THE INCREASE MAY SERVE AS A MEASURE OF THE SEVERITY OF THE STROKE. 3) MEETING NUTRITIONAL DEMANDS IS OF CRITICAL …

A new concept and its application for protein sparing therapies during semi-starvation
… acid and fat metabolism 0.8 to 1.0 g/kg/day of protein was administered orally or intravenously. This regime does not appreciably impede fat mobilization as does comparable intake of carbohydrate. The ingested or infused amino acids need therefore not be expended primarily to support energy …

Acute and chronic effects of ammonia in the South African abalone, Haliotis midae Linnaeus (Mollusca)
Ammonia is the major end-product of protein catabolism in abalone, and is excreted into the surrounding water. Build-up of ammonia in abalone aquaculture systems can reach high toxic levels and impact negatively on farming operations. Ammonia levels therefore have to be regulated. Accurate …

Purification and some properties of an alkaline protease from rat skeletal muscle
… the metabolism of myofibrillar and other muscle proteins and as such deserve to be fully characterised. In this study, a major myofibrillar alkaline protease was purified from rat skeletal muscle. The enzyme degraded both denatured casein and azocasein and had a pH optimum of 9,0. The molecular …

Bioavailability of blueberry-derived phenolic acid metabolites and their activity in endothelial cells
… mixture to induce cellular antioxidant response proteins regulated by nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) or to reduce endothelial cell monocyte adhesion under pro-inflammatory challenge with tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), was investigated in cultured human umbilical vein …

The Reprogramming of White Adipose Tissue to Brown Adipose Tissue Mediates Adverse Metabolic Dysfunction After A Burn Injury
… characterized by hyperglycemia, lipolysis, and protein catabolism. Perhaps the most serious gap in our understanding of the hypermetabolic response in burns is the role of the adipose tissue. Humans harbour two distinct adipose depots, white adipose tissue (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT) …

Ecotoxicology and ecophysiology of mysids, with special reference to copper toxicity in Praunus flexuosus
… Metabolism shifted to a greater reliance on protein catabolism under copper exposure in both seasons, demonstrating a stronger effect in summer. Total copper content accumulated in the organism increased with increasing copper concentration in solution. Copper accumulation rate was higher in …

OMICS APPROACHES FOR OMEGA-6/OMEGA-3 POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACID RATIO IN PIGS
… linked to lipolysis, obesity, myogenesis, and protein catabolism. We also determined on how sow diets with high or low n-6/n-3 PUFA ratios of 13:1 (SOY) and 4:1 (LIN), influenced the reproductive performance of sows, growth performance of pre-weaned piglets, and fat deposition, including …

Systematic Survey of the Plasmodium falciparum Hemoglobin Catabolic Pathway in Intact Cells Using the Digestomics Approach
Hemoglobin (Hb) catabolism is an essential component of Plasmodium parasites’ intraerythrocytic asexual reproduction cycle. This catabolic process has been extensively studied over the past six decades as a potential target for antimalarial drugs. The current model describes Hb proteolysis as a …

The effect of overfeeding and obesity on canine adipose tissue and skeletal muscle transcriptomes
… the functional classes of signaling, transport, protein catabolism and proteolysis, protein modification, development, transcription and apoptosis, cell cycle and differentiation. The small amount of differentially expressed genes in skeletal muscle indicates that adipose tissue expansion may …

Mechanism and energetics of membrane transporters and channels
"Living cells have evolved specialized transport proteins called membrane transporters and channels that catalyze exchange of materials across the cell membrane. Membrane trans- porters couple the active transport of their specific substrates against their electrochemical gradient. On the other …
