چکیده
An in vitro system was used to study the regulation of glucose and acetate utilization by bovine and ovine adipose tissue (AT). Adult nonlactating, nonpregnant cows ( n = 5 ) and ewes ( n = 5 were given limited amounts of feed for 8 to 10 d, then overfed for 10 (ewes) or 21 (cows) d. Perirenal AT explants were incubated for 7 d. The effect of 2 mu/ mL of insulin on glucose utilization was significant in bovine but not in ovine AT during the 1st d in vitro, whereas the relationship was reversed from the 4th d of incubation. The effect of insulin on acetate utiliza

Insulin and/or dexamethasone regulation of lactate production and its relationship to glucose utilization by ovine and bovine adipose tissue explants incubated for 7 days.
This study investigated the hormonal regulation of lactate production and the lactate production/glucose utilization ratio in sheep and cow adipose tissue (AT) explants. The effects of insulin (2 mU/mL) and/or dexamethasone (DEX, 100 nM) were measured in perirenal AT of adult non-lactating non-pregnant cows (n = 5) or ewes (n = 5) given a restricted diet followed by overfeeding. The AT explants...

Objectives- To isolate, culture-expand and differentiate mesenchymal stem cells from ovine bone marrow and determine their culture requirements for high expansion rate. Design- Experimental study. Animals- Five Shal sheep. Procedures- In this study, ovine marrow cells were plated and culture expanded through 3 successive subcultures. The resultant cells were then plated at differentiating condi...
متن کاملInsulin and (or) dexamethasone effects on leptin production and metabolic activities of ovine adipose tissue explants.
The in vitro effects of insulin and/or dexamethasone (DEX) on leptin production were studied on adipose tissue (AT) from adult non-lactating, non-pregnant ewes. Perirenal AT explants were incubated for 2 or 4 days and leptin production was determined using a specific ovine RIA. The effects of these hormones were simultaneously measured on glucose and acetate utilisation and on lipogenic enzyme ...
متن کاملProtective Effects of Interleukin-4 on Tissue Destruction and Morphological Changes of Bovine Nasal Chondrocytes in vitro
Background: Previous studies have shown that some cytokines have protective effects on cartilage in joint diseases. In the current study, effects of IL-4 against morphological changes and tissue degradation induced by IL-1α on bovine nasal cartilage (BNC) explants were investigated. Methods: Fresh BNC samples were prepared from a slaughterhouse under sterile conditions. BNC explants culture was...
متن کاملSequential changes in the expression of mitochondrial protein mRNA during the development of brown adipose tissue in bovine and ovine species. Sudden occurrence of uncoupling protein mRNA during embryogenesis and its disappearance after birth.
Samples of adipose tissue were obtained from different sites in bovine and ovine foetuses and newborns. RNA was isolated and analysed using bovine cDNA and ovine genomic probe for uncoupling protein (UCP), cDNA for subunits III and IV of cytochrome c oxidase and cDNA for ADP/ATP carrier. UCP mRNA was characterized for the first time in foetal bovine and ovine adipose tissue. It appeared later t...
