mRNA transcription and protein expression of PPARgamma, FAS, and HSL in different parts of the carcass between fat-tailed and thin-tailed sheep

Electron. j. biotechnol; 18 (3), 2015
Background The objective of this study was to compare the level differences of mRNA transcription and protein expression of PPARγ, FAS and HSL in different parts of the carcass in different tail-type sheep. Six Tan sheep and six Shaanbei fine-wool sheep aged 9 months were slaughtered and samples wer...

PPARgamma FAS, HSL mRNA and protein expression during Tan sheep fat-tail development

Electron. j. biotechnol; 18 (2), 2015
Background The objective of this study was to investigate proliferator-activated receptor (PPARγ), fatty acid synthase (FAS) and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) mRNA and protein expression in fat tails of Tan sheep. Rams from different developmental stages (aged 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 months) were se...

Cloning, characterization and expression of Peking duck fatty acid synthase during adipocyte differentiation

Electron. j. biotechnol; 17 (6), 2014
Background Fatty acid synthase (FAS) is a key enzyme of de novo lipogenesis (DNL), which has been cloned from several species: Gallus gallus, Mus musculus, Homo sapiens, but not from Anas platyrhynchos. The current study was conducted to obtain the full-length coding sequence of Peking duck FAS and inves...

Avaliação em ratos do efeito do óleo da semente de romã ( Punica granatum L. ) sobre o perfil lipídico tecidual e sua influência sobre parâmetros bioquímicos em processos oxidativos

O objetivo geral deste estudo foi avaliar, em ratos, o efeito do óleo da semente de romã (PSO) sobre o perfil lipídico tecidual e sua influência sobre parâmetros bioquímicos em processos oxidativos. Foi realizada a caracterização do PSO, confirmando a presença do ácido punícico (PA; 55%) como ...
