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
Important roles for the arginine family of amino acids in swine nutrition and production
Guoyao Wu,Guoyao Wu,Guoyao Wu,Fuller W. Bazer,Teresa A. Davis,Teresa A. Davis,Laurie A. Jaeger,Greg A. Johnson,Sung Woo Kim,Sung Woo Kim,Darrell A. Knabe,Cynthia J. Meininger,Thomas E. Spencer,Yulong Yin,Yulong Yin +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was found that low availability of N-acetylglutamate in enterocyte mitochondria is responsible for limited synthesis of citrulline from both glutamine and proline in 7- to 21-day-old suckling piglets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amino acid composition of human milk is not unique.
Teresa A. Davis,Hanh V. Nguyen,R Garcia-Bravo,Marta L. Fiorotto,Evelyn M. Jackson,D S Lewis,D R Lee,Peter J. Reeds +7 more
TL;DR: The milk amino acid patterns of the human and elephant, both slow-growing species, were dissimilar, and the amino acid pattern of human milk seems unrelated to growth rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of muscle growth in neonates.
TL;DR: Recent findings suggest that the immature muscle has a heightened capacity to activate signaling cascades that promote translation initiation in response to the postprandial rise in insulin and amino acids thereby enabling their efficient utilization for muscle growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulation of protein synthesis by both insulin and amino acids is unique to skeletal muscle in neonatal pigs
Teresa A. Davis,Marta L. Fiorotto,Douglas G. Burrin,Peter J. Reeds,Hanh V. Nguyen,Philip R. Beckett,Rhonda C. Vann,Pamela M. J. O'Connor +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that, in the neonate, the stimulation ofprotein synthesis by feeding is mediated by either amino acids or insulin in most tissues; however, the feeding-induced stimulation of protein synthesis in skeletal muscle is uniquely regulated by both insulin and amino acids.
