Effect of dietary protein intake on plasma leucine flux, protein synthesis, and degradation in sheep
Sano H Kajita M Fujita T 《Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Part B, Biochemistry & molecular biology》2004,139(2):163-168
Combined experiments of an isotope dilution method of [1-(13)C]leucine with open circuit calorimetry and a nitrogen (N) balance test were applied to determine the effect of dietary crude protein (CP) intake on plasma leucine flux and protein synthesis and degradation in four sheep. The experiment was conducted in a 3 x 4 Latin rectangle design of three 3-week periods. Dietary CP intake was 5.6, 7.7, and 10.8 g/(kg(0.75) x d). Metabolizable energy intake was 120% of requirement for all dietary treatments. [1-(13)C]Leucine was intravenously infused for 8 h and blood and breath samples were collected during the latter 2-h period of infusion. Isotopic enrichments of plasma [1-(13)C]leucine, alpha-[1-(13)C]ketoisocaproic acid, and exhaled (13)CO(2) were determined. For the N balance test, N digestibility, N excretion in urine, and protein balance (N x 6.25) increased with increasing dietary CP intake. Rates of plasma leucine turnover, protein synthesis, and degradation changed toward reduction with increased dietary CP intake. It is likely that in sheep, high CP intake enhances protein deposition with reduced protein degradation rather than increased protein synthesis. 相似文献

The effect of a "normal" (n = 8) and "high" (n = 6) protein intake (1 and 2.5 g x kg(-1) x day(-1), respectively) and of exercise on plasma amino acid (AA) concentrations, insulin, and glucagon concentrations was followed throughout a continuous 24-h period in adult male subjects at energy balance after six days on a standardized diet and exercise program. Subjects were fasting from 2100 on day 6 to 1200 on day 7 and then fed 10 identical meals hourly until 2100. Physical exercise was performed (46% maximal oxygen uptake) between 0830 and 1000 (fasting) and in a fed state (1600-1730) on each day. The normal-protein group showed fasting plasma AA concentrations that were higher (P < 0.05) than those for the high-protein group, except for leucine, methionine, and tyrosine. Glutamine, glycine, alanine, taurine, and threonine concentrations were distinctly higher ( approximately 30% or greater) throughout the 24-h period in subjects consuming the normal- vs. the high-protein diets. Exercise appeared to increase, although not profoundly, the plasma concentrations of amino acids except for glutamate, histidine, ornithine, and tryptophan. The profound diet-related differences in plasma AA concentrations are only partially explained by differences in the renal clearance of the amino acids. We speculate on the possible metabolic basis for these findings. 相似文献

In the second part of this study, emphasis is placed on nutritional intakes (fatty acids and micronutrients) and fatty acid intake and metabolism in the blood, respectively, according to a combined 24 h recall and standardized food frequency questionnaire analyses of keloid prone patients (n=10), compared with normal black South Africans (n=80), and total phospholipid blood (plasma and red blood cell ) analyses of keloid patients (n=20), compared with normal individuals (n=20). Lipid extraction and fractionation by standard procedures, total phospholipid (TPL) separation with thin layer chromatography, and fatty acid methyl ester analyses with gas liquid chromatography techniques were used. Since nutrition may play a role in several disease disorders, the purpose of this study was to confirm or refute a role for essential fatty acids (EFAs) in the hypothesis of keloid formations stated in part 1 of this study. (1)According to the Canadian recommendation (1991), we observed that in keloid patients linoleic acid (LA) and arachidonic acid (AA) dietary intakes, as EFAs of the omega-6-series, are higher than the recommended 7-11 g/d. However, the a-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) dietary intakes, as EFAs of the omega-3 series, are lower than the recommendation of 1.1-1.5 g/d. This was also the case in the control group, where a higher dietary intake of the omega-6 fatty acids and a slightly lower dietary intake of the omega-3 fatty acids occurred. Thus, we confirm a high dietary intake of LA (as a product of organ meats, diary products and many vegetable oils) and AA (as a product of meats and egg yolks), as well as lower dietary intakes of ALA (as a product of grains, green leafy vegetables, soy oil, rapeseed oil and linseed), and EPA and DHA (as products of marine oils). Lower micronutrient intakes than the recommended dietary allowances were observed in the keloid group that may influence EFA metabolism and/or collagen synthesis. Of cardinal importance may be the lower intake of calcium in the keloid patients that may contribute to abnormal cell signal transduction in fibroblasts and consequent collagen overproduction, and the lower copper intake that may influence the immune system, or perhaps even the high magnesium intake that stimulates metabolic activity. Micronutrient deficiencies also occurred in the diets of the normal black South Africans that served as a control group. In the case of plasma TPLs, deficiency of the omega-3 EFA series (ALA, EPA and DHA) occurred, and this is in accordance with the apparent lower omega-3 EFA intake in the diets of these patients. In the case of the red blood cell TPLs, as a true and reliable source of dietary fatty acid intake and metabolism, sufficient EFAs of the omega-6 series (LA and AA) and the omega-3 series (ALA, EPA and DHA) occurred. For this study group a relative deficiency of nutritional omega-3 EFA intake apparently did occur, but was probably compensated for by blood fatty acid metabolism. 相似文献

An isotope dilution experiment was conducted to determine the effect of metabolizable energy intake (MEI) as starch on whole body protein synthesis (WBPS), nitrogen (N) retention and glucose irreversible loss rate (ILR) in four adult goats (Capra hircus). The goats were fed isonitrogenous diets containing three different metabolizable energy (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 times maintenance) twice daily. Energy above maintenance was supplemented with cornstarch. The WBPS and glucose ILR during 5 to 7 h after feeding were measured by a primed-continuous infusion of [2H5]phenylalanine, [2H2]tyrosine, [2H4]tyrosine and [13C6]glucose for 4 h, with measurements of plasma concentrations of metabolites and insulin. Ruminal characteristics were also determined. Increasing MEI improved N retention, despite decreased digestible N. Increasing MEI decreased ruminal pH and ammonia nitrogen. In plasma, decreased urea N, increased total amino N and tyrosine, and trends for increases in phenylalanine and insulin resulted from increasing MEI. Increasing MEI increased ILR of glucose, phenylalanine and tyrosine, and hydroxylation rate of phenylalanine and WBPS. We conclude that in goats increasing MEI as starch enhances WBPS in the absorptive state and N retention, despite a decrease in digestible N. These changes are probably associated with both decreased ammonia absorption and increased amino acid absorption. 相似文献

We have previously shown that a physiological increase in plasma leucine for 60 and 120 min increases translation initiation factor activation in muscle of neonatal pigs. Although muscle protein synthesis is increased by leucine at 60 min, it is not maintained at 120 min, perhaps because of the decrease in plasma amino acids (AA). In the present study, 7- and 26-day-old pigs were fasted overnight and infused with leucine (0 or 400 micromol.kg(-1).h(-1)) for 120 min to raise leucine within the postprandial range. The leucine was infused in the presence or absence of a replacement AA mixture (without leucine) to maintain baseline plasma AA levels. AA administration prevented the leucine-induced reduction in plasma AA in both age groups. At 7 days, leucine infusion alone increased eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4E binding protein-1 (4E-BP1) phosphorylation, decreased inactive 4E-BP1.eIF4E complex abundance, and increased active eIF4G.eIF4E complex formation in skeletal muscle; leucine infusion with replacement AA also stimulated these, as well as 70-kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase, ribosomal protein S6, and eIF4G phosphorylation. At 26 days, leucine infusion alone increased 4E-BP1 phosphorylation and decreased the inactive 4E-BP1.eIF4E complex only; leucine with AA also stimulated these, as well as 70-kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase and ribosomal protein S6 phosphorylation. Muscle protein synthesis was increased in 7-day-old (+60%) and 26-day-old (+40%) pigs infused with leucine and replacement AA but not with leucine alone. Thus the ability of leucine to stimulate eIF4F formation and protein synthesis in skeletal muscle is dependent on AA availability and age. 相似文献

Multiple-indicator dilution experiments with labeled lactate were performed in the livers of anesthetized dogs. A mixture of (51)Cr-labeled erythrocytes, [(3)H]sucrose, and L-[1-(14)C]lactate or a mixture of (51)Cr-labeled erythrocytes, [(14)C]sucrose, and L-[2-(3)H]lactate was injected into the portal vein, and samples were obtained from the hepatic vein. Data were evaluated using a model comprising flow along sinusoids, exchange of lactate between plasma and erythrocytes and between plasma and hepatocytes, and, in the case of L-[1-(14)C]lactate, metabolism to H[(14)C]O(-)(3) within hepatocytes. The coefficient for lactate efflux from erythrocytes was 0.62 +/- 0.24 s(-1), and those for influx into and efflux from hepatocytes were 0.44 +/- 0.13 and 0.14 +/- 0.07 s(-1), respectively. The influx permeability-surface area product of the hepatocyte membrane for lactate (P(in)S, in ml x s(-1) x g(-1)) varied with total flow rate (F, in ml s(-1) x g(-1)) according to P(in)S = (3.1 +/- 0.5)F + (0.021 +/- 0.014). Lactate in plasma, erythrocytes, and hepatocytes was close to equilibrium, whereas lactate metabolism was rate limiting. 相似文献

Before one can examine the effects of substances on the metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA) by the cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways, an assay system which allows one to detect increases or decreases in both pathways in needed. In order to develop such a system, we have examined nonaggregating washed human platelets (10(8) platelets/0.5 ml) incubated for various times with 2 microCi 3H-AA and increasing concentrations of AA. T/B2, HHT, 12-HETE, and AA were extracted and separated using reverse phase-HPLC. We first calculated the mass of AA products formed with 10(-7) to 10(-4) M AA and found that the cyclooxygenase was saturated with 10(-5) M AA whereas the lipoxygenase was not saturated with 10(-4) M AA. Cyclooxygenase products were more prevalent than 12-HETE below 10(-5) M AA, while lipoxygenase products predominated at 3 x 10(-5)-10(-4) M AA. Using 3 microM AA, which does not saturate the cyclooxygenase, we examined the effect of 0.25-10 minute incubation durations on the distribution of AA metabolites and found AA product formation to increase throughout this period without completely depleting the substrate. Since substrate depletion does not occur and further metabolism could be detected for both pathways with a 5 minute incubation with 3 microM AA, these incubation parameters were chosen in order to further test the assay system. Using these parameters, we found that 10(-4) M 5-hydroxytryptamine enhanced platelet 12-HETE formation and decreased T/B2 and HHT formation, thus demonstrating the capacity of this system to simultaneously detect changes in cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzyme metabolism.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

This study was undertaken to determine whether the protein feeding pattern could induce chronic adaptation of protein turnover. After a 15-day adaptive period, elderly (68 yr) and young (26 yr) women received, for 14 days, a diet providing 200 KJ x kg fat-free mass (FFM)(-1) x day(-1), where the daily protein intake (1.7 g protein x kg FFM(-1) x day(-1)) was either spread over 4 meals in the spread pattern or mainly (80%) consumed at noon in the pulse pattern. One day after the end of the dietary treatment, whole body leucine kinetics were measured by use of a continuous [(13)C]leucine infusion, both in the postabsorptive state and in the same fed state. The pulse pattern was able to induce, in young as in elderly women, a lower postabsorptive leucine oxidation and endogenous leucine flux than the spread pattern and improved the responsiveness of nonoxidative leucine disposal during 4-h oral feeding. Thus the pulse pattern was able to induce chronic regulation of protein metabolism in young as in elderly women. 相似文献

To study amino acid exchange between plasma and erythrocytes in vivo, 4-h primed, continuous intravenous infusions of L-[1-13C]leucine, [15N]glycine, and L-[15N]alanine were administered to five healthy young men in the postabsorptive state. Stable isotope enrichments and amino acid levels were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in both plasma and whole blood and estimated (using hematocrit) in erythrocytes. A high concentration gradient across the erythrocyte membrane was consistently found for glycine (552 +/- 268 microM in erythrocytes vs. 155 +/- 35 microM in plasma), but not for leucine or alanine. A steady-state isotopic enrichment was observed in whole blood as well as plasma for each amino acid in every subject. Steady-state [13C]leucine enrichment in erythrocytes did not differ from plasma enrichment at steady state, the ratio of erythrocyte to plasma enrichment being 1.03 +/- 0.20 (95% confidence limits = 0.78-1.28); in contrast, this ratio reached only 0.23 +/- 0.04 and 0.59 +/- 0.09 (confidence limits 0.18-0.28 and 0.48-0.70) for [15N]glycine and [15N]alanine at steady state, respectively. These results suggest that most of erythrocyte leucine is exchangeable with plasma, whereas only a fraction of erythrocyte glycine and alanine is involved in exchange with plasma in vivo. 相似文献

The n-3 fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) regulate hepatic lipid and glucose metabolism; however, EPA and DHA are naturally present in human diets in foods of animal origin, which are generally high in protein with variable triglycerides and uniformly low amounts of carbohydrate. We used dietary information for 611 individuals of 1.5-66 years to address whether EPA and DHA are associated with protein, but not fat intake. EPA, DHA and arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) intakes were positively associated with protein, but not fat intake, whereas linoleic acid (18:2n-6) and α-linolenic acid (18:3n-3) intakes were positively associated with fat, but not protein intake. Children 1-3 years of age have lower EPA and DHA intakes than children over 4 years or adults. Recommendations regarding EPA and DHA intake should focus on protein sources, rather than diet fat, and consider their potential roles in amino acid and protein metabolism. 相似文献

This study was conducted to determine if ascorbic acid (AA) 1) increases resistance to high environmental temperature in young chickens and 2) alters heat-induced changes in several physiological responses. Groups of male chicks received either a standard ration containing 1,000 mg/kg (ppm) of AA or the ration without AA. Chicks were brooded for 3 wk and then maintained at 22 +/- 0.8 degrees C. At 4 wk of age, both AA-supplemented and control chicks were exposed to 30 min of heating (43 +/- 0.1 degrees C and 40 +/- 2% rh) on each of 3 consecutive h in an environmentally controlled chamber. Chicks were challenged with sheep erythrocytes (1 ml, 10(5) cells, iv) 12 h postheating. Heating reduced plasma potassium, body weight gain, relative bursa and spleen weights, and anti-sheep erythrocyte levels. Heating increased cloacal temperature, plasma protein, corticosteroid levels, and mortality. AA ameliorated many of these stress-related responses. 相似文献

Little is known about amino acid (AA) and protein metabolism in lactating women. We hypothesized: 1) AA sources other than the plasma acid pool provide substrate for milk protein synthesis in humans and 2) if albumin was one such source, then albumin fractional synthesis rate (FSR) is higher in the lactating women. To test these hypotheses, six healthy exclusively breast-feeding women [27 +/- 3 yr; body mass index (BMI) 26 +/- 2 kg/m2] between 6 wk and 3 mo postpartum and six healthy nonlactating women (28 +/- 2 yr; BMI 22 +/- 1 kg/m2) were studied two times, in random order, during 22 h fasting or 10 h of continuous feeding with a mixed nutrient drink. Protein metabolism was determined using [1-13C]leucine and [15N2]urea. In both the fed and fasted states, a significant portion of milk protein (20 +/- 5 and 31 +/- 6%, respectively) was derived from sources other than the plasma free AA pool. A 70% higher (P < 0.02) FSR of albumin was observed in lactating women during feeding, suggesting that albumin is a likely source of AA for milk protein synthesis. We conclude that plasma free AA contribute only 70-80% of the substrate for milk protein synthesis in humans and that albumin may be a significant source of amino acids for the remainder. 相似文献

An isotope dose technique was utilized (i) to determine endogenous amino acid (AA) and protein losses and (ii) to propose adjusted values for AA requirements. The endogenous flow rate was calculated from the pool of enrichment in plasma AA, assuming similitude to enrichment of endogenous AA. In experiment 1, chicks were orally administered D4-lysine at 2% of estimated lysine intake from 16 to 24 days to find the isotopic steady state of the atom percent excess (APE) of lysine for plasma and jejunal and ileal digesta. The APE of D4-lysine in plasma, jejunal digesta and ileal digesta reached the isotopic steady state at 5.5, 3.4 and 2.0 days, respectively, by using the broken-line model. It was assumed that the isotopic steady state at 5 days identified for D4-lysine is also representative for the 15N-labeled AA. In experiment 2, chicks were fed diets from 1 to 21 days with increasing levels of fat (6%, 8%, 12%, 13% extract ether), protein (26%, 28.5%, 31% CP) or fiber (14%, 16%, 18% NDF) by adding poultry fat, soybean meal, blended animal protein or barley. Chicks were orally administered 15N-threonine, 15N-cysteine, 15N-methionine, 15N-lysine and 15N-leucine at 2% of estimated daily intake for 5 days from 17 to 21 days of age. Dietary nutrients influenced endogenous losses (EL), where dietary fat stimulated EL of lysine (P=0.06), leucine and protein (P=0.07); dietary protein enhanced EL of leucine and protein; and finally the dietary fiber increased EL of leucine. Dietary nutrients also affected apparent ileal digestibility (AID). Dietary fat increased AID of cysteine but decreased AID of lysine. Dietary protein reduced AID of protein, threonine, lysine and leucine, and similarly dietary fiber decreased AID of protein, threonine, methionine, lysine and leucine. In contrast, dietary fat or protein did not affect real ileal digestibility (RID) of protein and AA except threonine and leucine. The dietary fiber reduced the RID of protein, threonine and leucine. This indicate that variations of some endogenous AA and protein losses due to dietary nutrients almost eliminates the effects of RID, and thus the EL coming from the body should be utilized to adjust the AA requirement instead of changing the true digestible nutrients of ingredients. The present data suggest that 5 days’ feeding labeled AA was enough to reach the isotopic steady state and AA requirements should be adjusted when additional dietary protein, fat or fiber is fed. 相似文献

17beta-estradiol stimulates ascorbic acid and LHRH release from the medial basal hypothalamus in adult male rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Karanth S Yu WH Mastronardi CM McCann SM 《Experimental biology and medicine (Maywood, N.J.)》2004,229(9):926-934
In the present investigation, 17beta-estradiol (E(2)) and tamoxifen, an antiestrogen, were evaluated for their effects on the release of ascorbic acid (AA) and luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH). Medial basal hypothalami (MBH) from adult male rats were incubated with graded concentrations of E(2) (10 (-9) to 10(-6) M) or a combination of E(2) (10(-7) M) and tamoxifen (10(-7) and 10(-6) M ) in 0.5 ml of Krebs Ringer bicarbonate buffer for 1 hr. AA and LHRH in the incubation medium were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography and radioimmunoassay, respectively. E(2) significantly elevated both AA and LHRH release and the minimal effective dose was 10(-7) M. A combination of E(2) (10(-7) M) and tamoxifen (10(-6) M) totally blocked E(2)-induced AA and LHRH release. The stimulatory effect of E(2) was also suppressed in the presence of N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine, a competitive inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), illustrating that the release is mediated by nitric oxide (NO). To further characterize the role of NO, the tissues were incubated with E(2) or a combination of E(2) + (6 anilino-5, 8-quinolinedione) LY 83583 (10(-6) and 10(-5) M), an inhibitor of NOS. LY 83583 was effective in suppressing E(2)-induced AA and LHRH release, demonstrating that the effect was mediated by cyclic GMP. Incubation of the tissues with E(2) or a combination of E(2) + 1H-[1,2,4] oxadiazolo [4,3-a] quinoxalin-1-one (O.D.Q.) (10(-5) and 10(-4) M), a specific inhibitor of soluble guanylyl cyclase failed to alter AA release but significantly suppressed LHRH release. The role of a prostaglandin synthesis blocker in E(2)-induced AA and LHRH release was tested by incubating the tissues with E(2) or a combination of E(2) + indomethacin (1.8 x 10 (-7) or 1.8 x 10(-6) M). Indomethacin produced a significant decrease in E(2)-induced AA and LHRH release, suggesting that the release process required prostaglandins as an intracellular mediator. In conclusion, E(2) stimulated both AA and LHRH release and the effect was mediated by NO and prostaglandins. 相似文献

Pyridoxine kinase enzyme activity was greatly increased in duckling erythrocytes infected with Plasmodium lophurae. Pyridoxine kinase activity in parasites freed from erythrocytes was much greater than that of uninfected erythrocytes. The apparent Km for pyridoxine of the parasite enzyme was 6.6 times 10(-5) M whereas the host red cell enzyme Km was 1.9 times 10(-6) M. Deoxypyridoxine inhibited host and parasite pyridoxine kinase activity with an apparent Ki of 1.5 times 10(-6) and 8.6 times 10(-6) M, respectively. These results suggest that the vitamin B6 metabolism of the malaria parasites is distinct and separate from that of the host erythrocytes. 相似文献

The coexistence of ERalpha and ERbeta suggests that active receptor complexes are present as homo- or heterodimers. In addition each of three forms of active receptors may trigger different cellular responses. A real-time biosensor based on surface plasmon resonance was used as instrument to determine binding kinetics of homo- and heterodimerization of estrogen receptor alpha and beta. Partially purified full-length estrogen receptor alpha was expressed intracellularly as a C-terminal fusion to a hexa-histidine tag using the baculovirus-expression system. Purified estrogen receptor alpha and beta without tags were used as partners in the dimerization process. An association rate constant of 3.6 x 10(3) to 1.5 x 10(4)M(-1)s(-1) for the homodimer formation of ERalpha and 5.7 x 10(3) to 1.5 x 10(4)M(-1)s(-1) for the heterodimer formation was found assuming a pseudo first-order reaction kinetic. The equilibrium dissociation constant for homodimerization of ERalpha was 2.2 x 10(-8) to 5.4 x 10(-8) and 1.8 x 10(-8) to 2.6 x 10(-8)M for the heterodimer formation. The homo- and heterodimer formation was characterized by a slow association kinetics and kinetic rate constants were within the same range. 相似文献

Inhibition by BN 52021 (ginkgolide B) of the binding of [3H]-platelet-activating factor to human neutrophil granulocytes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The inhibitory effect of BN 52021, a specific antagonist of platelet-activating factor (PAF) on PAF-induced activation of human polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMNL) and on the binding of [3H]-PAF to neutrophils were examined. BN 52021 over the range of 10(-9)-10(-4) M inhibited PAF-induced degranulation and superoxide production of PMNLs in a dose-dependent manner with Kd values of 0.6 +/- 0.1 x 10(-6) M and 0.4 +/- 0.1 x 10(-6) M, respectively. BN 52021 (up to 1 mM) did not show any agonistic activity and it did not affect neutrophil responses to N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine or leukotriene B4. The Ki value of BN 52021 for the specific binding of [3H]-PAF to neutrophils was 1.3 +/- 0.5 x 10(-6) M versus a Ki of 1.1 +/- 0.3 x 10(-7) M for PAF itself. BN 52021 did not affect metabolism of PAF by PMNL. These studies indicate that BN 52021 inhibits neutrophil responses to PAF by inhibiting binding of PAF to its specific PMNL receptor. 相似文献

In order to determine ileal losses of nitrogen (N) and amino acids (AA) and the coefficients of apparent and true ileal digestibility (AID, TID) of N and AA from casein in piglets and pigs, two experiments were conducted. In Experiment 1, 24 piglets were used. The piglets were weaned at 17 days of age, weighing 6.4 kg and cannulated at terminal ileum. Ileal digesta was collected at 28-29 and 35-36 days of age in period 1 and 2, respectively. Feed intake was 150 and 300 g x d(-1) during the first and second period. In Experiment 2, 16 castrates weighing 52.5 kg and cannulated at terminal ileum were used. The intake level of digestible energy was 2.5 times their maintenance requirement. The experiment lasted 7 days and ileal digesta was collected on day 6-7. Treatments consisted of four levels of N from casein: 8, 16, 24 and 32 g N x kg(-1) feed, respectively. Results showed that N level did not increase N or AA ileal losses. In piglets, N and AA ileal losses were similar between periods, except for period 2, where losses per kg DMI were about 47 and 64% higher for glycine and proline, respectively (p < 0.05). When ileal losses from pigs and piglets were compared, piglets had higher (p < 0.05) ileal losses of N and AA (excepted glutamic acid and alanine). A lower (p < 0.05) AID was observed in piglets in period 2 for N, methionine, glutamic acid, glycine and proline. With exception of glycine in pigs, all values for TID of N and AA of casein were superior to 0.90. Piglets had higher TID of N, leucine, isoleucine, valine and phenylalanine. These results showed that piglets have higher ileal losses than pigs. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate if consumption of ordinary carbohydrate-rich food prepared in different ways has an impact on chromosome stability, i.e., on the formation of micronucleated young erythrocytes in humans. Twenty-four persons, divided into two groups, participated during 4 days in a semi-controlled food-consumption study. One group (low-heated-food-group, LowHF-group) consumed only food boiled in water (max 100 degrees C) and the other group (high-heated-food-group, HighHF-group) consumed preferentially strongly heated (fried) food. From each of the subjects, blood samples were drawn, before and after 4 days. The frequency (f) of micronucleated (MN) very young erythrocytes (transferrin-positive reticulocytes, Trf-Ret), fMNTrf-Ret, was determined, and the difference in the frequency, before and after the eating period, was calculated. The obtained mean differences for the two groups were compared. As an indicator of highly heated food the acrylamide (AA) content in part of the consumed foodstuffs was analysed by use of LC/MS-MS and the AA intake estimated. In the blood samples the hemoglobin-adduct levels from AA were analysed as a measure of the internal AA dose. The differences between the mean fMNTrf-Ret, before and after the eating period, were -0.15 per thousand for the LowHF-group and +0.17 per thousand for the HighHF-group, p<0.005 (t-test, one-tailed). The mean total AA intake in the HighHF-group during 4 days was estimated to about 3000+/-450microg per person. For the LowHF-group, the mean AA intake was low, 20+/-10microg per person. The lowest dose of AA that caused a significant increase of micronucleated erythrocytes in mice is more than a hundred times higher than the AA level in this study. Thus, it is unlikely that the exposure to AA is the major cause behind the observed difference. The answer is probably to be found in other compounds produced at the same time during heating of the food. 相似文献

13C-NMR spectroscopy was used to record time courses of the metabolism of [1-(13)C]-L-ascorbic acid (AA) and [2-(13)C]-L-ascorbic acid and their dehydro-counterparts (DHAA) by human erythrocytes. Under a range of experimental conditions, but most notably in the absence of glucose in the incubation medium, no (13)C-NMR signal for lactate emerged during any of the 5 h time courses. The NMR resonances that did emerge over time were assigned to diketogulonic (DKG) acid and CO(2). Only very minor resonances from degradation products of DKG appeared from samples that contained physiologically high concentrations of DHAA. These results are in contrast with those in a recent report that lactate is derived from AA in human erythrocytes. However, an explanation for this possible artifact is given. 相似文献
