Effect of in ovo feeding and its interaction with timing of first feed on glycogen reserves, muscle growth, and body weight.

Poult. Sci. 90(7) , 1467-77, (2011)

Chicks are commonly fasted for the first 36 to 72 h posthatch because of the logistics of commercial production. Fasting for 48 to 72 h posthatch results in retarded BW, delayed intestinal development, and lower pectoral muscle weight. This study is focused o...

Synthesis and structure-activity relationship study of antidiabetic penta-O-galloyl-D-glucopyranose and its analogues.

J. Med. Chem. 49 , 2829-37, (2006)

The rapid increase of obesity-associated diabetes has created urgent demands for more effective antidiabetic therapies and pharmaceuticals that are able to address the problems of hyperglycemia and weight gain simultaneously. Our previous studies indicated th...

Mast cells contribute to the stromal microenvironment in mammary gland branching morphogenesis.

Dev. Biol. 337(1) , 124-33, (2010)

The stromal microenvironment regulates mammary gland branching morphogenesis. We have observed that mast cells are present in the mammary gland throughout its postnatal development and, in particular, are found around the terminal end buds and ductal epitheli...

Glucose-based spiro-isoxazolines: a new family of potent glycogen phosphorylase inhibitors.

Bioorg. Med. Chem. 17 , 7368-80, (2009)

A series of glucopyranosylidene-spiro-isoxazolines was prepared through regio- and stereoselective [3+2]-cycloaddition between the methylene acetylated exo-glucal and aromatic nitrile oxides. The deprotected cycloadducts were evaluated as inhibitors of muscle...

Halogen-substituted (C-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-hydroquinone regioisomers: synthesis, enzymatic evaluation and their binding to glycogen phosphorylase.

Bioorg. Med. Chem. 19 , 5125-36, (2011)

Electrophilic halogenation of C-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl) 1,4-dimethoxybenzene (1) afforded regioselectively products halogenated at the para position to the D-glucosyl moiety (8, 9) that were deacetylated to 3 (chloride) and 16 (bromide). F...

1-(3-Deoxy-3-fluoro-β-d-glucopyranosyl) pyrimidine derivatives as inhibitors of glycogen phosphorylase b: Kinetic, crystallographic and modelling studies

Bioorg. Med. Chem. 18 , 3413-25, (2010)

The catalytic site of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (GPb) has been probed with five fluorine glucose derivatives. These inhibitors had fluorine instead of hydroxyl at the 3′ position of the glucose moiety and a variety of pyrimidine derivatives at the 1′ po...

The effect of a glucose polymer mixture (caloreen) on stool composition in normal neonates.

Eur. J. Pediatr. 143(1) , 32-4, (1984)

Stool composition was studied in 10 newborn infants following (a) a modified milk formula (Cow & Gate Premium) and (b) a high energy formula [104 kcal (435 kJ) per 100 ml] in which the additional energy was provided in the form of 10 per cent Caloreen. The on...

Indigestible dextrin stimulates glucoamylase production in submerged culture of Aspergillus kawachii.

J. Ind. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 38(12) , 1985-91, (2011)

Submerged batch cultures of Aspergillus kawachii grown on indigestible dextrin were investigated for potential improvements in glucoamylase (GA) production. In flask culture, specific GA productivities per dry weight biomass using dextrin and indigestible dex...

Effect of caloreen supplementation on some haematological values and urinary iron excretion during protein-energy malnutrition.

Eur. J. Clin. Nutr. 46(5) , 367-71, (1992)

The effect of caloreen (glucose polymer) supplementation on indicators of iron status during protein-energy malnutrition was studied. Sixty-four children with moderate protein energy malnutrition (PEM) were fed diets supplemented with caloreen or starch (cont...

Glucose polymer supplements in low birth weight infants.
