Ouellette, Andre J. Mucosal Immunity and Inflammation. IV. Paneth cell antimicrobial peptides and the biology of the mucosal barrier. Am. J. Physiol. 277 (Gastrointest. Liver Physiol. 40): G257–G261, 1999.—The hypothesis that epithelial cells release preformed antibiotic peptides as components of mucosal innate immunity has gained experimental support in recent years. In the mammalian small int...

Metab. 40): E772–E777, 1999.—We tested the hypothesis that the level of malonyl-CoA, as well as the corresponding rate of total fatty acid oxidation of the heart, is regulated by the opposing actions of acetyl-CoA carboxylase ...

Yuan, Pu-Qing, and Hong Yang. Hypothyroidism induces Fos-like immunoreactivity in ventral medullary neurons that synthesize TRH. Am. J. Physiol. 277 (Endocrinol. Metab. 40): E927–E936, 1999.—Altered thyroid statuses are associated with autonomic disorders. Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) in medullary nuclei regulates vagal efferent activity. Induction of Fos-like immunoreactivity (IR) in me...

In British Columbia, soil rehabilitation aims to restore productivity to forest roads, landings, and trails that are no longer needed for access, and to areas that have suffered unavoidable or accidental damage as a result of forestry operations. Soil rehabilitation is an important component of management strategies to maintain or enhance timber supply in the working forest. Restoring productiv...

Ihlemann, Jacob, Thorkil Ploug, Ylva Hellsten, and Henrik Galbo. Effect of tension on contraction-induced glucose transport in rat skeletal muscle. Am. J. Physiol. 277 (Endocrinol. Metab. 40): E208–E214, 1999.—We questioned the general view that contraction-induced muscle glucose transport only depends on stimulation frequency and not on workload. Incubated soleus muscles were electrically stim...
