Book Genetic Heterogeneity in the Impact of Dairy Product Consumption on Cholesterol Metabolism in Humans

Download or read book Genetic Heterogeneity in the Impact of Dairy Product Consumption on Cholesterol Metabolism in Humans written by Mohammad Abdullah and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the increased marketing and popularity of a range of dairy products in recent years, research has become widespread concerning the influence of dairy on human health. It is also becoming evident that an individual's genetic make-up contributes to shaping their health responses to dietary intakes. This research was primarily designed to investigate the impact of genetic variability on responsiveness of cholesterol metabolism, a classic biomarker of cardiovascular health, to the recommended level of dairy consumption in Canada. A secondary objective was to assess the influence of dairy intake on systemic inflammation as an emerging risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In a multicentre, randomized, free-living crossover design, 124 healthy individuals consumed 3 servings/day of conventional low-fat and regular milk, yogurt, and cheese (DAIRY diet) or dairy-free control products (CONTROL diet), each for 28 days as part of a prudent background dietary protocol. At the end of the study, DAIRY was associated with increased plasma concentrations of two established fatty acid biomarkers of dairy fat, pentadecanoic acid (C15:0) and heptadecanoic acid (C17:0), as well as with small increases in serum total cholesterol (TC) and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations. Inter-individual variability in the cholesterol transport gene ABCG5, bile acid synthesis gene CYP7A1, and cholesterol synthesis gene DHCR7 contributed to shaping the degree of TC and LDL-C responsiveness to DAIRY; with higher cholesterol concentrations observed among ABCG5 rs6720173-G/G homozygotes, CYP7A1 rs3808607-G allele carriers, and DHCR7 rs760241-A allele carriers, relative to the C allele, T/T, and G/G carriers of these genes, respectively. Also, after DAIRY, the major allele T homozygosity of CYP7A1 rs3808607 and the minor allele A of DHCR7 rs760241 were associated with reduced plasma [3,4]13C cholesterol enrichment and deuterium incorporation, respectively, suggesting reduced cholesterol absorption and synthesis rates. DAIRY intake did not influence the inflammatory status. Overall, this research has provided evidence of a potential impact of the genomic architecture on responsiveness of cholesterol metabolism to dairy consumption. The novel findings are expected to advance knowledge of the inherited basis by which health biomarkers may be modified in response to whole foods, hence launching an important step towards an era of personalized nutrition.

This book was released on 1995-02-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years since the third edition of this indispensable reference was published, a great deal has been learned about the nutritional requirements of common laboratory species: rat, mouse, guinea pig, hamster, gerbil, and vole. The Fourth Revised Edition presents the current expert understanding of the lipid, carbohydrate, protein, mineral, vitamin, and other nutritional needs of these animals. The extensive use of tables provides easy access to a wealth of comprehensive data and resource information. The volume also provides an expanded background discussion of general dietary considerations. In addition to a more user-friendly organization, new features in this edition include: A significantly expanded section on dietary requirements for rats, reporting substantial new findings. A new section on nutrients that are not required but that may produce beneficial results. New information on growth and reproductive performance among the most commonly used strains of rats and mice and on several hamster species. An expanded discussion of diet formulation and preparationâ€"including sample diets of both purified and natural ingredients. New information on mineral deficiency and toxicity, including warning signs. This authoritative resource will be important to researchers, laboratory technicians, and manufacturers of laboratory animal feed.

Book Bioactive Components in Milk and Dairy Products

Download or read book Bioactive Components in Milk and Dairy Products written by Young W. Park and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-09-15 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although bioactive compounds in milk and dairy products have been extensively studied during the last few decades – especially in human and bovine milks and some dairy products – very few publications on this topic are available, especially in other dairy species’ milk and their processed dairy products. Also, little is available in the areas of bioactive and nutraceutical compounds in bovine and human milks, while books on other mammalian species are non-existent. Bioactive Components in Milk and Dairy Products extensively covers the bioactive components in milk and dairy products of many dairy species, including cows, goats, buffalo, sheep, horse, camel, and other minor species. Park has assembled a group of internationally reputed scientists in the forefront of functional milk and dairy products, food science and technology as contributors to this unique book. Coverage for each of the various dairy species includes: bioactive proteins and peptides; bioactive lipid components; oligosaccharides; growth factors; and other minor bioactive compounds, such as minerals, vitamins, hormones and nucleotides, etc. Bioactive components are discussed for manufactured dairy products, such as caseins, caseinates, and cheeses; yogurt products; koumiss and kefir; and whey products. Aimed at food scientists, food technologists, dairy manufacturers, nutritionists, nutraceutical and functional foods specialists, allergy specialists, biotechnologists, medical and health professionals, and upper level students and faculty in dairy and food sciences and nutrition, Bioactive Components in Milk and Dairy Products is an important resource for those who are seeking nutritional, health, and therapeutic values or product technology information on milk and dairy products from the dairy cow and speciesbeyond. Areas featured are: Unique coverage of bioactive compounds in milks of the dairy cow and minor species, including goat, sheep, buffalo, camel, and mare Identifies bioactive components and their analytical isolation methods in manufactured dairy products, such as caseins, caseinates, and cheeses; yogurt products; koumiss and kefir; and whey products Essential for professionals as well as biotechnology researchers specializing in functional foods, nutraceuticals, probiotics, and prebiotics Contributed chapters from a team of world-renowned expert scientists
