Some factors controlling food intake by zinc-deficient rats.
I . Male hooded Lister rats given a diet containing 40 mg zinc/kg were described as Znadequate. Other rats were subsequently given diets containing less than I m g Zn/kg. After a period of approximately 5 d these animals ceased to grow and were described as Zn-deficient. 2. Zn-deficient rats offered ad lib. a Zn-deficient diet containing 200 g egg albumenjkg ate only 55 "/o of the weight eaten ...
متن کاملAltered liver gene expression in CCl4-cirrhotic rats is partially normalized by insulin-like growth factor-I.
We have previously shown that the administration of low doses of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) to CCl4-cirrhotic rats improves liver function and reduces fibrosis. To better understand the mechanisms behind the hepatoprotective effects of IGF-I, and to identify those genes whose expression is affected in cirrhosis and after IGF-1 treatment, we have performed differential display of mRNA ...
متن کاملEffects of thyroid status on insulin-like growth factor-I, growth hormone and insulin are modified by food intake.
Understanding the interactions between metabolic signals that regulate insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is crucial to a recognition of mechanisms that control mammalian growth. Thyroid hormones (THs) are essential for normal growth and development, and it has been suggested previously that they can modify circulating IGF-I concentrations. However, the fact that THs influence food intake, wh...
متن کاملEnhanced Production of Insulin-Like Growth Factor I Protein in Escherichia coli by optimization of five key factors
Abstract Human insulin-like growth factor I (hIGF-I) is a kind of growth factor with clinical significance in medicine. The major objective of this study is over- production of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I( rhIGF-I) through a developed process by recruiting effective factors in order to achieve the most recombinant protein. Up to now E. coli expression system has been widely us...
