Download or read book Nutrient Requirements of Laboratory Animals written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. 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 Dietary Fat Requirements in Health and Development

Download or read book Dietary Fat Requirements in Health and Development written by Joyce Beare-Rogers and published by The American Oil Chemists Society. This book was released on 1988 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This publication is a collection of works on fat requirements in development and health. The role of fats during human development and throughout a lifespan are discussed. Topics include: suitable fat foundations for infant feeding; lipid digestion in the developing infant; fat effects on fatty acids and cholesterol metabolism in animal experiments; the biochemistry and role of (n-3) fatty acids in the brain and retina; dietary factors in immune responsiveness; aging and nutritional requirements of essential fatty acids; and challenges for lipid nutritionists.

Book Early Life High fat Diet and Voluntary Physical Activity Affect Body Composition  Bone Phenotype and Gene Experession in the Male Rat

Download or read book Early Life High fat Diet and Voluntary Physical Activity Affect Body Composition Bone Phenotype and Gene Experession in the Male Rat written by Dharani Mahesh Sontam and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background Childhood and adolescence are characterised by rapid musculoskeletal development and offer a window of opportunity for maximising skeletal gains through physical activity. Physical activity has also long been considered a non-pharmacological strategy to combat diet induced obesity and its associated co-morbidities. The classically accepted opinion that obesity has a protective effect on bone due to the increased mechanical demand imposed by the excessive body weight on the skeleton has been challenged in recent times. Animal models used to investigate the effects of physical activity on bone development often involve the use of forced exercise models. Such studies have the potential for data confounding as they elicit a stress response in the animals. A series of studies were conducted to undertand how voluntary physical activity and highfat diet affect the body composition, bone mass indices, bone and marrow transcriptome during early life using a male rat model. Firstly, two voluntary exercise modalities: bipedal stance (BPS) and wheel exercise (WEX), were evaluated for their ability to influence body composition and gene expression without eliciting a stress response during the prepubertal period. Next, gene expression changes in the diaphyseal bones of the exercised animals were determined. In the second study, we examined the effects of an early life high-fat diet on body composition, bone mass indices and marrow gene expression in a young adult male rat model. Next, the ability of voluntary physical activity to modulate the early life high-fat diet effects was evaluated. Finally, whether the bone marrow retains a memory of early life exercise following its cessation was investigated. There was a modality-dependent response to prepubertal physical activity. The WEX group had significantly greater lean mass percentage and lower fat mass percentage compared to the control (CON) group. In the femoral diaphysis, the cortical cross-sectional thickness and closed porosity of the WEX group was significantly greater than the CON group. Such differences were not observed in the BPS group with respect to either body composition or cortical bone parameters. This modality-specific response was also seen in the cortical bone gene expression. We observed that genes with functions in integrin-linked kinase (ILK) and calcium (Ca2+) signalling pathways, both prominent mechanotransduction pathways in bone, had a diametrically opposite response to wheel and bipedal stance exercises. Early life high-fat diet positively affected body weight, total fat percentage and bone mass indices. In the bone marrow, it resulted in adipocyte hypertrophy and a pro-inflammatory and pro-adipogenic gene expression profile. Crucially, the bone marrow of the rats that exercised using the wheel while on a high-fat diet retained a memory of the early life exercise even when the exercise was stopped for 60 days. In the bone marrow, the adipocyte size of the rats that exercised did not exhibit hypertrophy. Several genes associated with mature adipocyte function were downregulated in the early-exercise group. Moreover, response of adiponectin gene expression in the marrow was different to that documented in white adipose tissues indicating that the the marrow adipose tissue may have a unique response to high-fat feeding. These results show that short-term prepubertal voluntary physical activity affects body composition, bone mass indices and cortical bone gene expression in a modality dependent manner. Voluntary physical activity has the ability to modulate the body composition and gene expression changes induced by a high-fat diet. In the bone marrow, the transcriptome retains a memory of the early life physical activity 60 days after exercise has ceased. The potential mechanisms driving the gene expression response must be the focus of future studies.
