Dietary monosodium glutamate enhances gastric secretion.
Dietary L-glutamate (Glu), an amino acid abundant in many foodstuffs in a free form, is able to modulate physiological functions in the stomach, including secretion and motility. Recently, specific receptors for Glu were identified in the apical membrane of chief cells in the lower region of fundic glands and in the somatostatin-secreting D-cell fraction of the gastric mucosa. This Glu-sensing ...
متن کاملEffect of Ketogenic Diet on Monosodium Glutamate-Induced Uterine Fibroids in Female Wistar Rats
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Ketogenic diet (KGD) is a low-carbohydrate, high-fat and average protein dietary formulation, which has been reported with the ability to ameliorate several metabolic diseases, especially those under the direct influence of hormonal disruptions. Monosodium glutamate (MSG) had been found to induce uterine fibroids in laboratory animals through alterations to hormones, l...
متن کاملControl of intractable gastric hemorrhage by monosodium glutamate.
Monosodium L glutamate (MSG) has been known and used to stop focal bleeding in remoted area and around battle fields along Thai-Laos-Cambodian border. The hemostatic effect of MSG was studied by Jaiarj eta/ (l985a). It was found that MSG decreased the bleeding times of the wounds made by excising the tails or by incising the femoral veins ofWistar rats. In an in vitro study with human blood, th...
متن کاملGlutamate taste: Discrimination between the tastes of glutamate agonists and monosodium glutamate in rats.
Taste aversion studies have demonstrated that rats conditioned to avoid monosodium glutamate (MSG) with amiloride added to reduce the intensity of the sodium component of MSG taste, generalize this aversion to aspartic acid and to L-AP4, but not to ionotropic glutamate receptor agonists. That is, MSG, L-AP4 and aspartate have similar tastes to rats. However, conditioned taste aversion methods a...
متن کاملDoes Monosodium Glutamate Induce Obesity in Female Mice?
Objective: Female metabolism is highly responding towards diet associated changes. Monosodium glutamate is a popular flavor enhancer, which is widely used to develop umami taste. Young female generation nowadays deals with more issues related to metabolism and fertility. Present study is an effort to monitor the effect of monosodium glutamate oral consumption on female mice health and obesity. ...
