  5. The effect of a zinc deficiency and alcohol intake during gestation in the rat

    Reynolds, Kathryn A.Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University1987

    The effect of alcohol and/or zinc deficiency was evaluated in seven groups of pregnant rats and their pups. Females which had been acclimated to alcohol before breeding were fed liquid alcohol diets with either 14 or 0.1 ppm Zn. Comparisons were made with animals pair fed isocaloric liquid …

    Rains, Tia MichelleUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2015

    The biochemical mechanisms contributing to 'zinc deficiency-induced anorexia' are not understood, although the recent discovery of hypothalamic appetite-controlling neuropeptides suggests that this anorexia may ultimately be explained within the brain. In a series of experiments, we have …

  12. Roles of Zinc in Skeletal Muscle Cells Growth

    Zhang, XiangfengUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2015

    Zinc deficiency impairs skeletal muscle growth in both humans and animals independently of decreased food intake. Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) is the primary regulator of postnatal muscle growth and there is substantial evidence that the effects of zinc deficiency alter IGF mediated muscle …
