Objectives: The objectives were to determine who establishes restaurant portion sizes and factors that influence these decisions, and to examine chefs’ opinions regarding portion size, nutrition information, and weight management. Research Methods and Procedures: A survey was distributed to chefs to obtain information about who is responsible for determining restaurant portion sizes, factors influencing restaurant portion sizes, what food portion sizes are being served in restaurants, and chefs’ opinions regarding nutrition information, health, and body weight. The final sample consisted of 300 chefs attending various culinary meetings. Results: Executive chefs were identified as being primarily responsible for establishing portion sizes served in restaurants. Factors reported to have a strong influence on restaurant portion sizes included presentation of foods, food cost, and customer expectations. While 76% of chefs thought that they served “regular” portions, the actual portions of steak and pasta they reported serving were 2 to 4 times larger than serving sizes recommended by the U.S government. Chefs indicated that they believe that the amount of food served influences how much patrons consume and that large portions are a problem for weight control, but their opinions were mixed regarding whether it is the customer's responsibility to eat an appropriate amount when served a large portion of food. Discussion: Portion size is a key determinant of energy intake, and the results from this study suggest that cultural norms and economic value strongly influence the determination of restaurant portion sizes. Strategies are needed to encourage chefs to provide and promote portions that are appropriate for customers’ energy requirements. 相似文献

Clinical, epidemiological and mechanistic studies support the role of cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.) in maintaining urinary tract health. Cranberry proanthocyanidins contain A-type linkages and have been associated with preventing adhesion of P-fimbriated uropathogenic Escherichia coli to uroepithelial cells. It is not known if the presence of the A-type linkage is a prerequisite for anti-adhesion activity. Other commercial sources of proanthocyanidins with all B-type linkages have not previously been screened for this activity. The goals of this study were to compare the in vitro anti-adhesion activity of A-linked proanthocyanidins from cranberry juice cocktail with the anti-adhesion activities of B-linked proanthocyanidins from commercial grape and apple juices, green tea and dark chocolate, and determine if anti-adhesion activity is detectable in human urine following consumption of single servings of each commercial food product. Structural heterogeneity and presence of the A-type linkage in cranberry proanthocyanidins was confirmed utilizing MALDI-TOF/MS and DI/ESI MS, as was the presence of all B-type linkages in the proanthocyanidins from the other commercial products. The isolated A-type proanthocyanidins from cranberry juice cocktail elicited in vitro anti-adhesion activity at 60 microg/ml, the B-type proanthocyanidins from grape exhibited minor activity at 1200 microg/ml, while other B-type proanthocyanidins were not active. Anti-adhesion activity in human urine was detected following cranberry juice cocktail consumption, but not after consumption of the non-cranberry food products. Results suggest that presence of the A-type linkage in cranberry proanthocyanidins may enhance both in vitro and urinary bacterial anti-adhesion activities and aid in maintaining urinary tract health. 相似文献

We describe the synthesis and structure/activity relationship of RGD mimetics that are potent inhibitors of the integrin alpha(v)beta3. Indol-1-yl propionic acids containing a variety of basic moieties at the 5-position, as well as substitutions alpha and beta to the carboxy terminus were synthesized and evaluated. Novel compounds with improved potency have been identified. 相似文献

Evidence obtained using recombinant inbred and congenic mouse strains has shown that thePC8 locus responsible for determining a marker on a singlek chain in inbred mice is linked to theLy-2,3 locus on chromosome 6. The upper limit of the map distance between these loci is approximately three centimorgans. This finding is discussed in relation to other known light-chain variants that are associated with theLy-2,3 locus.Abbreviations used in this paper are as follows L

Interleukin-1beta stimulates macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha and -1beta expression in human neuronal cells (NT2-N) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Chemokines are important mediators in immune responses and inflammatory processes of neuroimmunologic and infectious diseases. Although chemokines are expressed predominantly by cells of the immune system, neurons also express chemokines and chemokine receptors. We report herein that human neuronal cells (NT2-N) produce macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha and -1beta (MIP-1alpha and MIP-1beta), which could be enhanced by interleukin (IL)-1beta at both mRNA and protein levels. The addition of supernatants from human peripheral blood monocyte-derived macrophage (MDM) cultures induced MIP-1beta mRNA expression in NT2-N cells. Anti-IL-1beta antibody removed most, but not all, of the MDM culture supernatant-induced MIP-1beta mRNA expression in NT2-N cells, suggesting that IL-1beta in the MDM culture supernatants is a major factor in the induction of MIP-1beta expression. Investigation of the mechanism(s) responsible for IL-1beta-induced MIP-1alpha and -1beta expression demonstrated that IL-1beta activated nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) promoter-directed luciferase activity in NT2-N cells. Caffeic acid phenethyl ester, a potent and specific inhibitor of activation of NF-kappaB, not only blocked IL-1beta-induced activation of the NF-kappaB promoter but also decreased IL-1beta-induced MIP-1alpha and -1beta expression in NT2-N cells. These data suggest that NF-kappaB is at least partially involved in the IL-1beta-mediated action on MIP-1alpha and -1beta in NT2-N cells. IL-1beta-mediated up-regulation of beta-chemokine expression may have important implications in the immunopathogenesis of inflammatory diseases in the CNS. 相似文献

The molecular weight of human serum low density lipoprotein (LDL) was determined for the first time by sedimentation equilibrium or, more accurately, flotation equilibrium, in high concentration of KBrNaBr containing Tris-Cl buffer plus EDTA (density = 1.20 – 1.49 g/ml). Assuming both the molecular weight and the partial specific volume were unknown, the results at different densities gave a value of 2.87 ± 0.12 × 106 for the molecular weight and 0.965 ± 0.014 ml/g for the partial specific volume. 相似文献
