The Response of the Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cell Transcriptome to Variation in Magnesium Concentration (2022)
Journal Article
Almousa, L. A., Salter, A. M., Castellanos, M., May, S. T., & Langley-Evans, S. C. (2022). The Response of the Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cell Transcriptome to Variation in Magnesium Concentration. Nutrients, 14(17), Article 3586. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu14173586

Vascular endothelial cells have a critical role in the maintenance of cardiovascular function. Evidence suggests that endothelial function may be compromised under conditions of magnesium deficiency, which increases vulnerability to inflammation. Who...

Animal Feed Science and Technology, 292, Article 115406. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anifeedsci.2022.115406

Fibrolytic enzymes are routinely added to non-ruminant livestock feeds to help degrade the non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) contents and thereby improve feed efficiency. This study investigated the range of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and monosaccharid...
