We investigated the change of tryptophan-niacin metabolism in rats with puromycin aminonucleoside PAN-induced nephrosis, the mechanisms responsible for their change of urinary excretion of nicotinamide and its metabolites, and the role of the kidney in ...
In the present study, we characterized diacylglycerol (DAG) oil in terms of energy metabolism by comparing oxygen consumption and respiratory quotient (RQ), as well as blood parameters, in rats after administration of emulsions containing either DAG or ...
Hepatic α-amino-β-carboxymuconate-e-semialdehyde decarboxylase (ACMSD) [EC4.1.1.45] plays a key role in regulating NAD biosynthesis from tryptophan. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ACMSD mRNA expression after pyrazinamide or peroxisome ...
It has been firmly established that the longevity of 20- to 60 %-calorie-restricted rodents, with malnutrition (essential nutrients deficiency) being avoided, is increased when compared to ad libitum fed rodents. However, the effects on life span of ...
This study highlighted the pro-oxidative functions of α-tocopherol (αT) on the heart antioxidant system and tissue histopathology of oxidized sunflower oil (OSO)-exposed rats.Four groups of male Wistar rats were fed with different diets: 1) control diet ...
