This study investigated the effect of processed forms (defatted or hydrolyzed) of black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens L., BSFL) as a protein substitute on broilers. Experiment 1 was a feeding experiment, and Experiment 2 was a metabolism experiment. In Experiment 1, a total of 120 day-old Arbor Acres broilers (initial body weight 39.52 ± 0.24 g) were used for 28 days. There were 8 replicate pens, and 5 broilers were assigned to each pen. In Experiment 2, a total of 36 day-old broilers (initial body weight 39.49 ± 0.21 g) were used for the metabolism trial. There were 2 broilers in a metabolism cage and six replicate cages per treatment. The dietary treatments were as follows: a basal diet (CON), a basal diet without fishmeal and substitute with defatted BSFL (T1), a basal diet without fishmeal and a substitute with hydrolyzed BSFL (T2). In Experiment 1, during the entire experimental period, the T2 group significantly increased (p < 0.05) body weight gain and feed intake compared to the CON and T1 groups. The feed conversion ratio showed a lower tendency (p = 0.057) in the T2 group than in the CON and T1 groups. At 2 weeks, the CON and T2 groups were significantly higher (p < 0.05) crude protein (CP) digestibility than the T1 group. At 4 weeks, the total protein level significantly increased (p < 0.05) in the CON and T2 groups compared to the T1 group. In Experiment 2, the CP digestibility significantly increased (p < 0.05) in the T2 group compared to the CON and T1 group at weeks 2 and 4. At week 4 amino acid digestibility, the T2 group significantly increased (p < 0.05) lysine, methionine, tryptophan, and glycine digestibility compared to the T1 group. There was no difference in fecal microbiota among the treatment groups. In conclusion, feeding hydrolyzed BSFL as a fishmeal substitute in broiler diets improved growth performance, CP digestibility, and specific amino acid digestibility. Therefore, it is considered that hydrolyzed BSFL in broiler diets can be sufficiently used as a new protein source.

The effects of various step-fortifications of the initial medium with amino acids, glucose, and vitamines on the growth and metabolism of a hybridoma cell line in batch cultures were quantified. Comparisons between the metabolic rates of the various cultivations were made for the exponential growth phase. Fortification of the basal medium resulted in higher cell densities through a prolonged growth phase, but the maximum specific growth rate was not affected. The uptake rate of glutamine increased with the addition of amino acids but did not change upon the addition of glucose or vitamines. The specific glucose consumption decreased slightly with the addition of amino acids but increased production of lactate and {{{{ { NH}`_{4 } ^{ +} }}}}. A reciprocal relationship between the yields of {{{{ { NH}`_{4 } ^{+ } }}}} and lactate indicated a joint regulation of glycolysis and glutaminolysis.

The effect of water extract of adzuki beans on acetaminophen-altered lipid metabolism was examined in rats. Control group of rats was fed a basal diet, another group of rats was fed 0.5% acetaminophen (APAP group), and a third group of rats was fed 0.5% acetaminophen plus 5% adzuki bean extract (ABE group) for 4 weeks. Serum total and HDL cholesterol levels in the APAP group were significantly lower than those in the control and ABE groups. Hepatic cholesterol $7{\alpha}-hydroxylase$ and fatty acid synthase mRNA levels in the APAP and ABE groups were significantly higher and lower than in the control group, respectively. Hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase mRNA level in the APAP group was significantly lower than in the control group, whereas that in the ABE group was significantly higher than in the APAP group. These results indicate that adzuki bean extract may improve the acetaminophen-altered serum lipid metabolism in rats.

Sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP)-1c plays a crucial role in the regulation of lipogenic enzymes in the liver. We previously reported that an X-chromosome-linked RNA binding motif (RBMX) regulates the promoter activity of Srebp-1c. However, still unknown was how it regulates the gene expression. To elucidate this mechanism, we screened the cDNA library from mouse liver by yeast two-hybrid assay using RBMX as bait and identified scaffold attachment factor B1 (SAFB1). Immunoprecipitation assay demonstrated binding of SAFB1 to RBMX. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay showed binding of both SAFB1 and RBMX to the upstream region of Srebp-1c gene. RNA interference of Safb1 reduced the basal and RBMX-induced Srebp-1c promoter activities, resulting in reduced Srebp-1c gene expression. The effect of SAFB1 overexpression on Srebp-1c promoter was found only in the presence of RBMX. These results indicate a major role for SAFB1 in the activation of Srebp-1c through its interaction with RBMX.

본 연구는 다량의 당질과 단백질을 함유하고 있는 매생이가 동물의 체내 지질대사에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. SD계 흰쥐를 기초식이군과 1% 콜레스테롤 급이군, 그리고 콜레스테롤과 동시에 5% 매생이를 급이한 매생이 급이군으로 나누어 5주간 급여하여 혈액과 간 중의 지방과 콜레스테롤 함량을 측정하고, 비만 유전자인 랩틴 단백질의 발현정도를 측정하였다. 혈청 중 중성지방과 총콜레스테롤 함량은 기초식이군에 비해 콜레스테롤 급이군에서 높게 나타났으며, 매생이 급이군은 콜레스테롤 급이군에 비해 유의하게 낮았다. 혈청 중 HDL-콜레스테롤 함량은 콜레스테롤 급이군에서 가장 낮게 나타났으나, 콜레스테롤과 함께 급이한 매생이 급이군에서는 높아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 간 중의 중성지방과 총콜레스테롤 함량 또한 콜레스테롤 급이군에 비해 매생이 급이군에서 유의적으로 낮은 경향을 나타내었다. 즉, 고콜레스테롤혈증이 유발된 흰쥐에 대한 매생이 급이가 다른 해조류와 마찬가지로 기능성 식이섬유로서 작용하여 혈청 및 간 내 콜레스테롤, 중성지질 및 LDL-콜레스테롤 농도의 저하, HDL-콜레스테롤 농도의 상승 및 동맥경화지수의 저하 등 지질개선 효과가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서, 동결건조하여 분말화시킨 매생이 자체만으로도 혈청 또는 간장에서의 지질개선 뿐만 아니라 심혈관계 질환의 치료를 목적으로 하는 식품소재로서의 활용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

Forty-eight individually fed Angus steers (body weight $220kg{\pm}9.1$) were utilized to investigate the effects of copper (Cu) source and concentration on lipid metabolism and carcass quality. Steers were stratified by body weight and initial liver Cu concentration and randomly assigned to one of five groups. Groups were then randomly assigned to treatments. Treatments consisted of: 1) control (no supplemental Cu); 2) 10 mg Cu/kg DM from $CuSO_4$; 3) 10 mg Cu/kg DM from a Cu amino acid complex (Availa Cu) 4) 20 mg Cu/kg DM from $CuSO_4$; and 5) 20 mg Cu/kg DM from Availa Cu. Steers were fed a corn-alfalfa-based growing diet for 56 d. Steers were then switched to a high concentrate finishing diet for 145 d. On day 74 of the finishing phase subcutaneous adipose tissue biopsies were obtained from three steers/treatment to determine basal and stimulated lipolytic rates in vitro. Steers were then slaughtered after receiving the finishing diet for 145 d. Control steers tended (p<0.12) to have lower ceruloplasmin (Cp) activity than Cu supplemented steers. Steers receiving 20 mg Cu/kg DM from Availa Cu had higher (p<0.03) Cp activity than steers receiving 20 mg Cu/kg DM from $CuSO_4$. Plasma non-esterified fatty acids were similar across treatments. Steers receiving 10 mg Cu/kg DM from Availa Cu had higher (p<0.02) total plasma cholesterol concentrations relative to steers receiving 10 mg Cu/kg DM from $CuSO_4$. Steers receiving 20 mg Cu/kg DM from Availa Cu had lower (p<0.03) plasma triglyceride concentrations than steers supplemented with 20 mg Cu/kg DM from $CuSO_4$. Fatty acid profile of longissimus muscle was similar across treatments. Backfat depth tended (p<0.18) to be lower in Cu supplemented steers relative to controls. Steers supplemented with 20 mg Cu/kg DM from Availa Cu had heavier (p<0.03) hot carcass weights and a greater (p<0.02) dressing percentage than steers supplemented with 20 mg Cu/kg DM from $CuSO_4$. Furthermore, in vitro basal (p<0.06) and epinephrine stimulated (p<0.04) lipolytic rates of subcutaneous adipose tissue were higher in Cu supplemented steers relative to controls. The results of this study suggest that Cu supplementation has minimal effects on blood and lean tissue lipid profile. However, it appears that Cu may play a role in lipid metabolism in subcutaneous adipose tissue.

Inadequate supply of glucose or glucogenic substrates to the body tissues can affect metabolism of absorbed acetogenic metabolites from the gut and therefore, influence feed intake in ruminants. This study investigated the effect of energy supplementation on rumen kinetics in the gut, and the acetate clearance rate in the body tissues of sheep fed low quality basal roughage. A basal diet consisting of urea-treated mixture of wheaten chaff and barley straw (3:1 DM) containing 22.2 g N/kg DM was used. Four Merino cross wethers weighing $45{\pm}4.38\;kg$ fitted with permanent rumen and abomasal cannulae were allocated to four treatments in a $4{\times}4$ LSD. The treatments were basal diet ($E_0$), or basal diet supplemented with sucrose (112.5 g/d) administered intraruminally ($E_R$), abomasally ($E_A$), or via both routes (50:50) ($E_{RA}$). There was no difference (p>0.05) in the rumen liquid kinetics parameters between the four dietary treatments. However, there was a trend of animals supplemented with sucrose wholly or partly through the abomasum having lower faecal DM and therefore poor pellet formation, and low pH. Although the glucogenic potential of the fermentation products absorbed from the rumen was increased (p<0.001) by intra-ruminal supplementation with sucrose ($E_R$ and $E_{RA}$), there was no significant difference (p<0.05) in acetate clearance rate between the four dietary treatments.

Streptozotocin(STZ)-유발 당뇨쥐에서 시상하부의 norepinephrine(NE) 대사를 기초 NE 함량, NE 교체율, in vivo tyrosine hydroxylase(TH) 활성을 그 지표로 하여 조사하였다. STZ (60 mg/kg, iv)로 당뇨를 유발한 후 4주까지 기초 NE 함량은 유의한 변화가 없었다. 그러나 당뇨유발 후 1주째에 측정한 NE 교체율은 대조치의 62%(p<0.01), in vivo TH 활성은 대조치의 34% (p<0.05)로 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로 본 실험에서 측정한 NE 대사의 세 지표 중에서 in vivo TH 활성이 STZ-유발 당뇨쥐의 시상하부 NE 대사의 변화를 가장 민감하게 반영하였다.
