Energy metabolism and thermoregulation in Chinchilla brevicaudata
(Elsevier Ltd, 2003)
Chinchilla brevicaudata lives at 3500-5000 m, with high ambient temperatures during the day but cold at night. In this Andean habitat there is also low availability of food and water resources. Physiological attributes ...
Heart energy metabolism and its role in the treatment of heart failure Metabolismo energético del corazón y sus proyecciones en el tratamiento de la insuficiencia cardíaca
(2010)
It is unknown why heart failure progresses even when patients are treated with the best therapy available. Evidences suggest that heart failure progression is due to loss of neurohumoral blockade in advanced stages of the ...
Metabolic cost of osmoregulation in a hypertonic environment in the invasive African clawed frog Xenopus laevis
(Company of Biologists Ltd., 2016)
Studies of aquatic invertebrates reveal that salinity affects feeding and growth rates, reproduction, survival, and diversity. Little is known, however, about how salinity impacts the energy budget of vertebrates and ...
Neuroendocrine Regulation of Metabolism
(Wiley, 2016)
Given the current environment in most developed countries, it is a challenge to maintain a good balance between calories consumed and calories burned, although maintenance of metabolic balance is key to good health. ...
Apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy are influenced by metabolic energy sources in cultured rat spermatocytes
(2012)
Apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy are mechanistically related processes that control tissue homeostasis and cell survival. In the testis, germ cell death is important for controlling sperm output, but it is unknown whether ...
Effects of diet and water supply on energy intake and water loss in a mygalomorph spider in a fluctuating environment of the central Andes
(2011)
The metabolic and water evaporation strategies in spiders may be part of a set of physiological adaptations to tolerate low or unpredictable food availability, buffering spiders against environmental fluctuations such as ...
Determinants of anti-cancer effect of mitochondrial electron transport chain inhibitors: Bioenergetic profile and metabolic flexibility of cancer cells
(Bentham Science Publishers B.V., 2016)
© 2016 Bentham Science Publishers. Recent evidence highlights that energy requirements of cancer cells vary greatly from normal cells and they exhibit different metabolic phenotypes with variable participation of both ...
The interplay between ambient temperature and salt intake affects oxidative status and immune responses in a ubiquitous Neotropical passerine, the rufous-collared sparrow
(Elsevier Inc., 2019)
© 2019 Elsevier Inc.Physiological traits associated with maintenance, growth, and reproduction demand a large amount of energy and thus directly influence an animal's energy budget, which is also regulated by environmental ...
Re-print of “Intestinal luminal nitrogen metabolism: Role of the gut microbiota and consequences for the host”
(Elsevier, 2013)
Alimentary and endogenous proteins are mixed in the small intestinal lumen with the microbiota.
Although experimental evidences suggest that the intestinal microbiota is able to incorporate and degrade
some of the available ...
