Effects of L-carnitine supplementation on quality characteristics of fresh pork bellies from pigs fed 3 levels of corn oil.

Only registered users can translate articles

Crossbred pigs (n = 216) were used to test the effect of supplemental L-carnitine (CARN) on the fatty acid composition and quality characteristics of fresh pork bellies from pigs fed diets formulated with different inclusion levels of corn oil. Pigs were blocked by BW (43.6 ± 1.0 kg) and allotted

Comparative effects of dietary corn oil, safflower oil, fish oil and palm oil on metabolism of ethanol and carnitine in the rat.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE This study was launched to determine comparative effects of corn oil (CO), safflower oil (SO), fish oil (FO) and palm oil (PO) on carnitine status and ethanol metabolism in rats. METHODS Twenty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats (300 g bw) were randomly divided into four groups (n = 6) and fed

Comparison of serum concentrations of symmetric dimethylarginine and creatinine as kidney function biomarkers in healthy geriatric cats fed reduced protein foods enriched with fish oil, L-carnitine, and medium-chain triglycerides.

Only registered users can translate articles

The purpose of this study was to determine whether feeding cats reduced protein and phosphorus foods with added fish oil, L-carnitine, and medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) altered serum biomarkers of renal function. Thirty-two healthy cats, mean age 14.0 (8.3-19.6) years, were fed control food or

L-carnitine treatment in the hyperlipidemic rabbit.

Only registered users can translate articles

A study was designed to examine the hypolipidemic effect of L-carnitine treatment (4 weeks, 170 mg/kg/d) in rabbits fed a high fat diet (5% corn oil/0.5% cholesterol, w/w). Eight weeks of exposure to the high fat diet significantly increased plasma total cholesterol and triglycerides. VLDL

Progression of diethylnitrosamine-induced hepatic carcinogenesis in carnitine-depleted rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether carnitine deficiency is a risk factor during the development of diethylnitrosamine (DENA)-induced hepatic carcinogenesis. METHODS A total of 60 male Wistar albino rats were divided into six groups with 10 animals in each group. Rats in group 1 (control group)

Influence of DMBA-induced mammary cancer on the liver CPT I, mit HMG-CoA synthase and PPARalpha mRNA expression in rats fed a low or high corn oil diet.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hepatic mitochondrial outer membrane carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT I) and mitochondrial 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase (HMG-CoA synthase) enzymes play a key role in regulation of fatty acid oxidation and in ketogenic pathways, respectively. Their expression are regulated by fatty

Opposite effects of dietary saturated and unsaturated fatty acids on ethanol-pharmacokinetics, triglycerides and carnitines.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the effects of saturated fatty acid (SFA) and unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) diets on ethanol pharmacokinetics. Hepatic ADH and plasma carnitines were also evaluated as possible indicators of the mechanism involved. METHODS Sprague-Dawley male

Effect of L-carnitine treatment on very low density lipoprotein kinetics in the hyperlipidemic rabbit.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study examined the hypolipidemic effect of 4 weeks of L-carnitine treatment (170 mg/kg b.w./day) in New Zealand White rabbits fed a high fat diet (5% corn oil/0.5% cholesterol). Specifically, [3H] glycerol and [125I] very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) turnover studies were conducted to examine

The effect of L-carnitine and soybean oil on performance and nitrogen and energy utilization by neonatal and young pigs.

Only registered users can translate articles

A total of 64 neonatal pigs was used in an experiment to study the effect of L-carnitine and soybean oil on pig performance and N and energy utilization. Pigs were weaned at an average of 3 d of age and individually fed diets that contained dextrose, corn syrup solids, and isolated soy protein for

Feeding healthy beagles medium-chain triglycerides, fish oil, and carnitine offsets age-related changes in serum fatty acids and carnitine metabolites.

Only registered users can translate articles

The purpose of this study was to determine if feeding dogs medium-chain triglycerides (MCT), fish oil, and L-carnitine enriched foods offsets age-associated changes in serum fatty acids (FA) and carnitine metabolites. Forty-one healthy Beagles, mean age 9.9 years (range 3.1 to 14.8), were fed

Antiketonemic and antiketogenic actions of carnitine in vivo and in vitro in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effect of carnitine on ketone and lipid metabolism in intact rats and in isolated tissues was investigated. DL-Carnitine (200 mg/100 g body weight) administered orally lowered by approximately 40-65% plasma concentrations of ketone bodies in suckling rats and fasted adult rats. It also

Changes of lipid concentrations in liver and serum by administration of carnitine added diets in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Carnitine [4,-(N,N,N-trimethyl-ammonio)-3-hydroxybutanoate] was added to the diet to study its effect on lipid concentrations in liver and serum of rats. In rats administered with a high-fat diet containing 30% corn oil, simultaneous administration of carnitine reduced the concentrations of

Effects of dietary corn oil and salmon oil on the oxidation of fatty acids and prostaglandin E2 in rat gastric mucosa.

Only registered users can translate articles

The investigations previously carried out by Grataroli and colleagues (1) to elucidate the relationships between dietary fatty acids, lipid composition, prostaglandin E2 production and phospholipase A2 activity in the rat gastric mucosa are, here, extended. In the present investigations, fatty acid

Influence of dietary carnitine on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Dietary saturated fatty acids, when compared with polyunsaturated fatty acids, increase plasma triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations, possibly because saturated fatty acids are preferentially converted into triglycerides. Carnitine is known to stimulate the oxidation of fatty acids and the

Evaluating oxidative stress, serological- and haematological status of dogs suffering from osteoarthritis, after supplementing their diet with fish or corn oil.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of disease, and the antioxidant physiological effect of omega-3 from fish oil may lead to improvement of canine spontaneous osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS In this prospective randomized, controlled, double-blinded study, we
