triacylglycerol/diarrhea

The intestinal metabolism and transport of triacylglycerol (TAG) play a critical role in dietary TAG absorption, and defects in the process are associated with congenital diarrhea. The final reaction in TAG synthesis is catalyzed by diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT1 and DGAT2), which uses

The influence of the chronic intake of a newly developed sweetener named "Neosugar" (fructooligosaccharide) on body weight gain, organ weight, serum lipids, fecal excretion and intestinal function was investigated in rats. The following results were obtained. Body weight gain was diminished more

As our survey found that some commercial standard diets for laboratory animals contained oil with chemical properties of highly deteriorated oil, their influence should be checked on animals especially of very young age. Three-week old weanling Wistar rats were fed a commercial standard diet

Beauveriolides I and III, isolated from the culture broth of fungal Beauveria sp. FO-6979, showed potent inhibitory activity of lipid droplet accumulation in primary mouse peritoneal macrophages. The cellular molecular target of this inhibitory activity was studied in macrophages. Beauveriolides I

Colibacillosis represents a major cause of diarrhea in young rabbits. In order to elucidate protective effect of milk, in vitro and in vivo experiments were carried out. In the in vitro experiment, rabbit milk treated with lipase significantly decreased the number of viable cells in cultures of

Congenital diarrheal disorders are rare inherited intestinal disorders characterized by intractable, sometimes life-threatening, diarrhea and nutrient malabsorption; some have been associated with mutations in diacylglycerol-acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1), which catalyzes formation of triacylglycerol
