Nutritional and hormonal control of muscle growth and fat deposition (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Brameld, J. M., Fahey, A. J., Langley-Evans, S. C., & Buttery, P. J. Nutritional and hormonal control of muscle growth and fat deposition

This review will consider the processes of skeletal muscle (myogenesis) and fat (adipogenesis) development and the factors involved in regulating them in a variety of species. In particular, the effects of hormones and maternal nutrition during diffe... Read More about Nutritional and hormonal control of muscle growth and fat deposition.

Isolation and characterization of Campylobacter bacteriophages from retail poultry (2003)
Journal Article
Atterbury, R. J., Connerton, P. L., Dodd, C. E., Rees, C. E., & Connerton, I. F. (2003). Isolation and characterization of Campylobacter bacteriophages from retail poultry. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 69(8), https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.69.8.4511-4518.2003

The ability of phages to survive processing is an important aspect of their potential use in the biocontrol of Campylobacter in poultry production. To this end, we have developed a procedure to recover Campylobacter bacteriophages from chilled and fr...

Calcitonin gene-related protein (CGRP) inhibits food intake and stimulates the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis after intracerebroventricular injection in rats. However, the hypothalamic site and mechanism of action are unknown. We investigat...

Inhibition of hypochlorous acid-induced oxidative reactions by nitrite: Is nitrite an antioxidant? (2003)
Journal Article
Whiteman, M., Rose, P., & Halliwell, B. (2003). Inhibition of hypochlorous acid-induced oxidative reactions by nitrite: Is nitrite an antioxidant?. Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 303(4), 1217-1224. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0006-291X%2803%2900503-5

Acute and chronic inflammation result in increased nitrogen monoxide (̇NO) formation and the accumulation of nitrite (NO2-). Neutrophils stimulated by various inflammatory mediators release myeloperoxidase to produce the cytotoxic agent hypochlorous...

Peroxynitrite formation in vivo is implicated in numerous human diseases and there is considerable interest in the use of antioxidants and natural products such as thiols as "peroxynitrite scavengers". We therefore investigated the effects of a recen...
