Investigated bone marrow metabolism in response to acute overnutrition (high calorie diet) and calorie deprivation (fasting). Bone marrow serum and peripheral serum were collected before and after each dietary intervention. Using proteomics analyses of the sera, we characterized nutritional influenc...
Expansion of bone marrow adipocytes has been linked to nutritional pressures, suggesting that bone marrow is a dynamic compartment that responds to fluctuations in systemic nutritional availability to regulate osteogenesis and hematopoiesis. Here we investigated bone marrow metabolism in response to...
Residual feed intake (RFI) is a measure of feed efficiency, where low RFI denotes high feed efficiency. Caloric restriction (CR) is associated with feed efficiency in livestock species and to human health benefits such as longevity and cancer prevention. We have developed pig lines that differ in RF...
The hypothesis tested in the present study was The effect fo weight loss by dietary intervention with very low calorie diet on colorectal inflammatory genes and genepathways. The study results have shown that a 10% weight loss in obese women down-regulated inflammatory and cancer gene pathways. In ...
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterised by a distinct but poorly understood in skeletal muscle pathology. In a rat model ZSF1, we identify impaired myonuclear accretion as a mechanism for ablated myofiber growth in HFpEF following resistance exercise intervention. Mus...
Dietary interventions are effective ways to extend or shorten lifespan. By examining midlife hepatic gene expressions in mice under different dietary conditions, which resulted in different lifespans and aging-related phenotypes, we were able to identify genes and pathways that modulate the aging pr...
Calorie restriction (CR) enhances longevity and mitigates aging phenotypes in numerous species. Physiological responses to CR are cell-type specific and variable throughout the lifespan; however, the mosaic of molecular changes responsible CR benefits remain unclear, particularly in brain regions su...
