In vitro assessment of the bioaccessibility of tocopherol and fatty acids from sunflower seed oil bodies (2009)
Journal Article
White, D. A., Fisk, I. D., Makkhun, S., & Gray, D. A. (2009). In vitro assessment of the bioaccessibility of tocopherol and fatty acids from sunflower seed oil bodies. Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 57(13), 5720-5726. https://doi.org/10.1021/jf9003412

The in vitro digestibility (proteolytic and lipolytic) and bioaccessibility of nutritionally important compounds (α-tocopherol and fatty acids) have been studied for natural sunflower (Helianthus annuus) oil body suspensions in comparison to artifici...

Evaluation of antioxidant activity and vitamin E profile of some selected indigenous vegetables in Nigerian diet (2009)
Journal Article
Ogunlade, I., Tucker, G., Fisk, I., & Ogunlade, A. (2009). Evaluation of antioxidant activity and vitamin E profile of some selected indigenous vegetables in Nigerian diet. Journal of Food, Agriculture and Environment, 7(2), 143-145. https://doi.org/10.1234/4.2009.1583

Freeze-dried leaves of some selected vegetables (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius, Talinum fruticosum and Solanum macrocarpon) were examined for antioxidant activity and analysed for vitamin E profile, using Ferric-ion Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) assa...

Biology of insulin-like factor 3 in human reproduction (2009)
Journal Article
Ivell, R., & Anand-ivell, R. (2009). Biology of insulin-like factor 3 in human reproduction. Human Reproduction Update, 15(4), 463-476. https://doi.org/10.1093/humupd/dmp011

Background: Insulin-like factor 3 (INSL3) is a neohormone that has evolved to address specific mammalian traits, in particular, the first phase of testicular descent towards the scrotum during mid-gestation. Methods: A thorough literature search was... Read More about Biology of insulin-like factor 3 in human reproduction.

The role of histamine 3 receptors in the control of food intake in a seasonal model of obesity: The Siberian hamster (2009)
Journal Article
Jethwa, P. H., Barrett, P., Turnbull, Y., Enright, R. A., Warner, A., Murphy, M., & Ebling, F. J. (2009). The role of histamine 3 receptors in the control of food intake in a seasonal model of obesity: The Siberian hamster. Behavioural Pharmacology, 20(2), 155-165. https://doi.org/10.1097/FBP.0b013e32832a8099

Siberian hamsters develop hypophagia and increase catabolism of fat reserves in response to short photoperiods resulting in a natural loss of body weight in winter. We previously found that histamine 3 receptor (H3R) mRNA in the posterior hypothalamu...

Prenatal induced chronic dietary hypothyroidism delays but does not block adult-type Leydig cell development (2009)
Journal Article
Rijntjes, E., Swarts, H. J., Anand-Ivell, R., & Teerds, K. J. (2009). Prenatal induced chronic dietary hypothyroidism delays but does not block adult-type Leydig cell development. AJP - Endocrinology and Metabolism, 296(2), E305-E314. https://doi.org/10.1152/ajpendo.90750.2008

Transient hypothyroidism induced by propyl-2-thiouracyl blocks postpartum Leydig cell development. In the present study, the effects of chronic hypothyroidism on the formation of this adult-type Leydig cell population were investigated, using a more...
