Caloric Intake in Renal Patients: Repercussions on Mineral Metabolism
(MDPI, 2020)
The aim of this paper is to review current knowledge about how calorie intake influences mineral metabolism focussing on four aspects of major interest for the renal patient: (a) phosphate (P) handling, (b) fibroblast ...
Does Size Matters? Relationships among Social Dominance and Some Morphometric Traits upon Out-of-Season Reproductive Outcomes in Anestrus Dairy Goats Treated with P4 + eCG
(MDPI, 2020)
The possible role of the social rank (R) (i.e., low-LSR, middle-MSR, or high-HSR) in anestrus goats exposed to a P4 + eCG (D) (i.e., 100 or 350 IU) estrus induction protocol (EIP) was evaluated. Goats (Alpine-Saanen-Nubian ...
Accelerometric Changes before and after Capacitive Resistive Electric Transfer Therapy in Horses with Thoracolumbar Pain Compared to a SHAM Procedure
(MDPI, 2020)
Capacitive resistive electric transfer (CRET), a radiofrequency at 448 kHz, increases flexibility in quadricep muscles of human athletes. To assess whether CRET would result in clinical and biomechanical improvements in ...
Effect of Social Rank upon Estrus Induction and Some Reproductive Outcomes in Anestrus Goats Treated With Progesterone + eCG
(MDPI, 2020)
We evaluated the possible role of the social rank [R] (i.e., low—LSR, middle—MSR, or high—HSR) in anestrus goats exposed to a P4 + eCG [D] (i.e., 100 or 350 IU) estrus induction protocol (EIP). Adult, multiparous (two to ...
Hypocaloric Diet Prevents the Decrease in FGF21 Elicited by High Phosphorus Intake
(MDPI, 2018)
The effect of dietary phosphorus (P) on fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21)/ -klotho axis
was investigated in rats that were fed diets with: Normal (NP) or high P (HP) and either normal
(NC), high (HC) or low calories ...
Energy-Dense Diets and Mineral Metabolism in the Context of Chronic Kidney Disease–Metabolic Bone Disease (CKD-MBD)
(MDPI, 2018)
The aim of this paper is to review current knowledge about the interactions of energy-dense diets and mineral metabolism in the context of chronic kidney disease–metabolic bone disease (CKD-MBD). Energy dense-diets promote ...
Hip Osteoarthritis in Dogs: A Randomized Study Using Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Adipose Tissue and Plasma Rich in Growth Factors
(MDPI, 2014)
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of a single
intra-articular injection of adipose mesenchymal stem cells (aMSCs) versus plasma rich
in growth factors (PRGF) as a treatment for reducing ...
Characterization of the seminal bacterial microbiome of healthy, fertile stallions using next-generation sequencing
(Colégio Brasileiro de Reprodução Animal, 2021)
High-throughput sequencing studies have shown the important role microbial communities play in the male reproductive tract, indicating differences in the semen microbial composition between fertile and infertile males. ...
Main and Minor Types of Collagens in the Articular Cartilage: The Role of Collagens in Repair Tissue Evaluation in Chondral Defects
(MDPI, 2021)
Several collagen subtypes have been identified in hyaline articular cartilage. The main and most abundant collagens are type II, IX and XI collagens. The minor and less abundant collagens are type III, IV, V, VI, X, XII, ...
Oral Acid Load Down-Regulates Fibroblast Growth Factor 23
(MDPI, 2022)
Increased dietary acid load has a negative impact on health, particularly when renal function is compromised. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone that is elevated during renal failure. The ...
