maltose/hypoxia

Concentration curves for sugar and amino acid uptake by Beta vulgaris L. leaf tissues contained both a saturable and a linear component. Similarly shaped curves were obtained for influx of sucrose, glucose, and 3-O-methyl glucose by leaf discs, whole petiole slices, petiole segments containing pith

In this study, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to evaluate in vivo hepatic oxygenation changes in chronically ethanol (CE)-treated and pair-fed (PF) control rats. Male Wistar rats were pair-fed an all-liquid diet containing 36% of total calories as either ethanol or

The mechanical, haemodynamic, and energetic functions of isolated perfused working hearts from chronic alcoholic and control rats were studied. Male Long-Evans rats were fed a nutritionally-complete liquid diet containing 38% of daily calories as ethanol (isocaloric replacement with dextrin-maltose

Everted sacs of rat intestine were incubated in media made viscous with Na-carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). This increased the resistance to diffusion of the mucosal unstirred water layer, as measured by the half-time for the establishment of osmotic streaming potentials. The increase ws not however

A short description selected from the presentations which had been awarded prizes in the 4th International Meeting of Nuclear Medicine, of the Hellenic Society of Nuclear Medicine, in Thessaloniki, Greece, is as follows: Professor L.G. Strauss from Heidelberg received the first prize for his

The adenosine A(2a) receptor belongs to the seven transmembrane helix G-protein-coupled receptor family, is abundant in striatum, vasculature and platelets and is involved in several physiological processes such as blood pressure regulation and protection of cells during anoxia. For structural and

Oropetium thomaeum is a desiccation tolerant grass and acquisition of desiccation tolerance is correlated with changes in carbohydrate metabolism. Here we address the question whether the changes in carbohydrate metabolism are specific to the dehydration process or whether other environmental

OBJECTIVE Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is characterized by gut dysbiosis and increased gut permeability. Hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) has been implicated in transcriptional regulation of intestinal barrier integrity and inflammation. We aimed to test the hypothesis that HIF-1α plays a
