Genome of Bifidobacteria and Carbohydrate Metabolism

Genome of Bifidobacteria and Carbohydrate Metabolism.

In recent years, the knowledge about bifidobacteria has considerably evolved thanks to recent progress in molecular biology. The analysis of the whole genome sequences of 48 taxa of bifidobacteria offers new perspectives for their classification, especially to set up limit between two species. Indeed, several species are presenting a high homology and should be reclassified. On the other hand, ...

The Effect of Amino Acid, Carbohydrate, and Lipid Metabolism Disorders on Eyes

Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) are a class of genetic disorders. Each metabolic disorder may have different forms with different age of onset, clinical manifestations, severity, and even type of inheritance. Ideally, a group of different specialists, including ophthalmologists, pediatricians, biochemists, and medical geneticists are needed for the final diagnosis and management of IMDs. B...

The effect of maternal hypothyroidism during pregnancy on carbohydrate metabolism in adulthood in rats

Introduction: Many of the diseases of adulthood are originated from the intrauterine conditions during fetal life. Because of the importance of thyroid hormones in growth and development of the fetus, the effects of maternal hypothyroidism on carbohydrate metabolism in adulthood was investigated. Methods: Pregnant rats were divided into the fetal hypothyroidism (FH) and the control (C) group...

Salicylates and carbohydrate metabolism.

Carbohydrate Metabolism and Diabetes

after hydrolysis an additional quantity makes its appearance. He maintains that this phenomena is explained either by the presence of carbohydrate matter of lower cupric oxide power than glucose, or by the liberation of sugar from a glucoside. Proteid matter has recently been shown to be of a glucoside character, and to be able to yield cleavage carbohydrate. Forming a constituent part of a lar...
