Protein Metabolism in the Fowl Part IV

Lipid metabolism in the fowl under normal and abnormal circumstances.

Normal metabolism Like the mammal, the fowl utilizes fat as its main energy store, taking advantage of the high energy value of fat compared with that of carbohydrate or protein, and its low water content. The lipids present in these species are similar in nature and composition and there appear to be no gross differences in the pathways by which they are metabolized or in the biochemical mecha...

Apolipoprotein A-IV: a protein intimately involved in metabolism.

The purpose of this review is to summarize our current understanding of the physiological roles of apoA-IV in metabolism, and to underscore the potential for apoA-IV to be a focus for new therapies aimed at the treatment of diabetes and obesity-related disorders. ApoA-IV is primarily synthesized by the small intestine, attached to chylomicrons by enterocytes, and secreted into intestinal lymph ...

The theory of stick-slip is developed, based on the concept of a static and dynamic coefficient of friction. The dynamic coefficient is assumed to be independent of displacement and to depend wholly on normal stress across the surface. It is also assumed to be velocity-independent. The theory predicts that the stress drop during stick-slip is independent of machine stiffness. The displacement d...
