Journal Article
Zoe, D., Brameld, J., Scollan, N., & Buttery, P. (2007). Effect of maternal undernutrition on ruminant carcass and meat quality. Archives Animal Breeding, 50(SPEC. ISS.), 22-23

We have previously shown that, in sheep, the majority of muscle differentiation and fibre formation takes place around d85 of gestation, with myoblast proliferation occurring before this time (FAHEY et al., 2005a). In a second study (FAHEY et al., 20... Read More about Effect of maternal undernutrition on ruminant carcass and meat quality.

VGF-derived peptide, TLQP-21, regulates food intake and body weight in Siberian hamsters (2007)
Journal Article
Jethwa, P. H., Warner, A., Nilaweera, K. N., Brameld, J. M., Keyte, J. W., Carter, W. G., …Ebling, F. J. (2007). VGF-derived peptide, TLQP-21, regulates food intake and body weight in Siberian hamsters. Endocrinology, 148(8), 4044-4055. https://doi.org/10.1210/en.2007-0038

The Siberian hamster survives winter by decreasing food intake and catabolizing abdominal fat reserves, resulting in a sustained, profound loss of body weight. VGF gene expression is photoperiodically regulated in the hypothalamus with significantly... Read More about VGF-derived peptide, TLQP-21, regulates food intake and body weight in Siberian hamsters.

Effect of maternal dietary restriction during pregnancy on lamb carcass characteristics and muscle fiber composition (2007)
Journal Article
Daniel, Z. C., Brameld, J. M., Craigon, J., Scollan, N. D., & Buttery, P. J. (2007). Effect of maternal dietary restriction during pregnancy on lamb carcass characteristics and muscle fiber composition. Journal of Animal Science, 85(6), 1565-1576. https://doi.org/10.2527/jas.2006-743

Two experiments were conducted to determine whether the decreased proportion of fast muscle fibers seen previously in 2-wk-old lambs from ewes that were dietary restricted from d 30 to 70 of gestation are still evident in older lambs and what the con...
