Journal ArticleDOI
Amino acids and immune function
TL;DR: Increasing evidence shows that dietary supplementation of specific amino acids to animals and humans with malnutrition and infectious disease enhances the immune status, thereby reducing morbidity and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arginine metabolism and nutrition in growth, health and disease
Guoyao Wu,Guoyao Wu,Fuller W. Bazer,Teresa A. Davis,Sung Woo Kim,Peng Li,J. Marc Rhoads,M. Carey Satterfield,Stephen B. Smith,Thomas E. Spencer,Yulong Yin +10 more
TL;DR: The results of both experimental and clinical studies indicate that Arg is a nutritionally essential amino acid (AA) for spermatogenesis, embryonic survival, fetal and neonatal growth, as well as maintenance of vascular tone and hemodynamics and novel and effective therapies for obesity, diabetes, and the metabolic syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proline and hydroxyproline metabolism: implications for animal and human nutrition
Guoyao Wu,Guoyao Wu,Fuller W. Bazer,Robert C. Burghardt,Gregory A. Johnson,Sung Woo Kim,Darrell A. Knabe,Peng Li,Xilong Li,Jason R. McKnight,M. Carey Satterfield,Thomas E. Spencer +11 more
TL;DR: Work with young pigs (a widely used animal model for studying infant nutrition) has shown that supplementing 0.1% proline to a proline-free chemically defined diet dependently improved daily growth rate and feed efficiency while reducing concentrations of urea in plasma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aspergillus oryzae GB -107 fermentation improves nutritional quality of food soybeans and feed soybean meals
TL;DR: Collectively, fermentation increased protein content, eliminated trypsin inhibitors, and reduced peptide size in soybeans and soybean meals, which might make soy foods more useful in human diets as a functional food and benefit livestock as a novel feed ingredient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary L-arginine supplementation enhances the reproductive performance of gilts.
R. D. Mateo,Guoyao Wu,Guoyao Wu,Fuller W. Bazer,Jun C. Park,Izuru Shinzato,Sung Woo Kim,Sung Woo Kim +7 more
TL;DR: Testing the hypothesis that dietary l-arginine supplementation may improve reproductive performance of pregnant gilts provided the first evidence for a marked increase of live-born piglets by 2 per litter through nutritional intervention in gilts.
