Whole body insulin responsiveness is higher in beef steers selected for increased muscling.
The aim of this experiment was to evaluate the impact of selection for greater muscling on whole body insulin responsiveness in cattle, as reflected by greater uptake of glucose in response to constant insulin infusion and greater glucose disappearance following an intravenous glucose tolerance test. This study used 18-month-old steers from an Angus herd visually assessed and selected for diver...
متن کاملInsulin responsiveness to glucose and tissue responsiveness to insulin in lactating, pregnant, and nonpregnant, nonlactating beef cows.
Insulin responsiveness to glucose and tissue responsiveness to insulin, using the hyperglycemic clamp and the hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp techniques, were measured in lactating, late pregnant, and nonpregnant, nonlactating (NPNL) beef cows. The glucose infusion rate (GIR) in the hyperglycemic clamp technique was higher (P less than .05). in lactating cows than in NPNL cows. The plateau in...
متن کاملAdenosine is required for myocardial insulin responsiveness in vivo.
The adenosine-receptor antagonist 8-phenyltheophylline (8-PTH) was used to study the role of endogenous adenosine in modulating insulin-stimulated myocardial glucose uptake (MGU) in vivo. Dogs were surgically instrumented under pentobarbital sodium anesthesia to measure hemodynamics and obtain blood samples for determinations of oxygen and glucose concentrations. Myocardial uptake of these subs...
متن کاملPhysical and chemical components of the empty body during compensatory growth in beef steers.
The composition of carcass and noncarcass tissue growth was quantified by serial slaughter of 26 Angus x Hereford crossbred steers (initial age and weight 289 +/- 4 d and 245 +/- 4 kg) during continuous growth (CON) or compensatory growth (CG) after a period of growth restriction (.4 kg/d) from 245 to 325 kg BW. All steers were fed a 70% concentrate diet at ad libitum or restricted levels. Homo...
متن کاملFailure of photoperiod to alter body growth and carcass composition in beef steers.
In each of two experiments, 70 crossbred steers were blocked by BW and assigned to initial slaughter groups or to treatments in a 2 x 2 design. In Exp. 1, treatments were 168 d of photoperiod (8 h of light [L]:16 h of dark [D] or 16L:8D) and plane of nutrition (high energy [HPN] or low energy [LPN]). On d -22, 67 and 155, blood was sampled every 20 min for 8 h. Relative to LPN, HPN increased (P...
