The measurement of total-body electrical conductivity (TOBEC) has become one of the standard methods for the estimation of body composition in infants. We investigated, using non-human models, the effect on the accuracy of TOBEC-derived body composition estimates of alterations in physical and
Acivicin, an L-glutamine antagonist, was administered to 37 evaluable patients with refractory advanced solid tumors in a phase I trial. A total of 67 evaluable 72-hr iv infusions were given at 3- to 4-week intervals. Doses ranged from 3.0 to 90 mg/m2/course. Reversible CNS toxicity was
BACKGROUND
Glutamine-supplemented total parenteral nutrition (TPN) improved the nitrogen balance in catabolic situations. In animal studies, parenteral glutamine supplementation appeared to maintain gut integrity. This study was performed to evaluate the possible positive effects of glutamine
BACKGROUND
Extracellular matrix (ECM) stabilization and fibronectin (FN)-Integrin signaling can mediate cellular protection. L-glutamine (GLN) is known to prevent apoptosis after injury. However, it is currently unknown if ECM stabilization and FN-Integrin osmosensing pathways are related to GLN's
Attached asynchronous exponential phase V79 Chinese hamster cells were pretreated by hypothermic cycling in Hepes growth medium by Method 3 (48 h at 25 degrees C + trypsin) or Method 4 (48 h at 25 degrees C + 3 h at 37 degrees C + trypsin) prior to a freeze-thaw (FT) cycle in Hepes growth medium.
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether glutamine-supplemented parenteral nutrition improves nitrogen retention and reduces hospital morbidity compared with standard parenteral nutrition after bone marrow transplantation.
METHODS
Double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial.
