Charbill Klayme 0993551 Dr. Hye-Jeong Yeo Functions of SREBPs Abstract SREBPs are 1,150 Amino Acid long proteins that are used to activate cholesterolgenesis. SREBP-1a are used to induce all the response genes. The SREBP-2 are used to allow expression of the LDL receptor. Ubiquination, usually by the kinase GSK3, can be the weapon to destructing SREBPs. SREBP-1a will build more cholesterol and fatty acids in rats and mice when it is over expressed. The SREBP-1c are best studied in the…
Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Alzheimer’s disease: Development and Associations Taylor C. Broad Central Michigan University Abstract Western diets increased rate of omega-6 over omega-3 fatty acids intake parallels with the increasing incident of Alzhiemer’s disease (AD). Diets rich in omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids may be protective in cognitive decline diseases, specifically AD. Omega-3 fatty acids are unsaturated fatty acids with a carbon-carbon double bond from the methyl end (n-3).…
2.1. Artificial Insemination (AI) : Development of techniques for successful. .freezing of spermatozoa has progressively evolved over the. . Past 60 years (Kucuk et al., 2014). At the starting of 20th century Ivanov started studying on artificial insemination (AI) of sheep’s, where Ivanov’s .studies on extenders and reproduction resulted in the development and the practical application of AI in farm animals, reviewed by (Bohlooli et al., 2012). AI provides. .many advantages to farmers and…
vitamin D), antioxidants (e.g. vitamin E), and mediators of cell signaling and regulators of cell and tissue growth and differentiation (e.g. vitamin A). The largest number of vitamins (e.g. B complex vitamins) function as precursors for enzyme cofactor bio-molecules (coenzymes), that help act as catalysts and substrates in metabolism. When acting as part of a catalyst, vitamins are bound to enzymes and are called prosthetic groups. For example, biotin is part of enzymes involved in making…
