Twelve generations of marginal protein deficiency.
1. Colonies of rats have been maintained for twleve generations on diets adequate (dietary protein energy: total metabolizable energy (NDp: E) 0-1) or marginally deficient in protein (NDp: E 0-068). 2. In the malnourished colony, the proportion of "small-for-gestational-age" offspring was ten times as high as amongst the well-nourished colony, growth was slow, sexual maturation delayed, especia...
متن کاملFunctional characterization of twelve natural PROS1 mutations associated with anticoagulant protein S deficiency.
BACKGROUND The molecular mechanisms by which PROS1 mutations result in protein S deficiency are still unknown for many of the mutations, particularly for those that result in a premature termination codon. The aim of this study was to analyze the functional relevance on mRNA and protein expression of 12 natural PROS1 mutations associated with protein S deficiency. DESIGN AND METHODS Five muta...
متن کاملMarginal Vitamin Deficiency: The "Gray Area" of Nutrition
• Is there a state of optimal nutrition beyond what is commonly accepted as adequate nutrition? • Does marginal vitamin deficiency have any clinical significance? • Can nutritional status affect behavior and personality? • Can vague symptoms such as irritability, insomnia, and lethargy be caused by vitamin depletion? • Are marginal deficiencies a widespread problem? At what point does such a pr...
متن کاملProduction of chickens with marginal vitamin A deficiency.
Marginally vitamin A-deficient 1-d-old chickens capable of remaining healthy for at least 6 weeks were produced using a two-generation model. In this model, hens fed on diets with a limited vitamin A content were used to obtain 1-d-old chickens which were marginally deficient in vitamin A. Only hens with a narrow range of plasma retinol values (0.60-0.85 mumol/l) were satisfactory for this purp...
متن کاملIn HepG2 cells, coexisting carnitine deficiency masks important indicators of marginal biotin deficiency.
BACKGROUND A large number of birth defects are related to nutrient deficiencies; concern that biotin deficiency is teratogenic in humans is reasonable. Surprisingly, studies indicate that increased urinary 3-hydroxyisovalerylcarnitine (3HIAc), a previously validated marker of biotin deficiency, is not a valid biomarker in pregnancy. OBJECTIVE In this study we hypothesized that coexisting carn...
