Journal ArticleDOI
L-Arginine promotes protein synthesis and cell growth in brown adipocyte precursor cells via the mTOR signal pathway.

TL;DR: increasing extra-cellular arginine concentration from 50 to 200 µmol/L activates mTOR cell signaling in BAPCs and enhances their growth and development in a dose-dependent manner, which provides a mechanism forArginine supplementation to enhance the development of brown adipose tissue in fetal lambs.
Book ChapterDOI
Amino Acid Nutrition and Reproductive Performance in Ruminants.
TL;DR: Amino acids (AAs) are essential for the survival, growth and development of ruminant conceptuses as mentioned in this paper, and they are extensively catabolized by ruminants to synthesize AAs and microbial proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ruminal microbes of adult sheep do not degrade extracellular l-citrulline.
TL;DR: Results indicate that L-citrulline is not metabolized by ruminal microbes of sheep and is, therefore, absorbed as such by the small intestine and used for the synthesis of L-arginine by extrahepatic tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic studies reveal that ruminal microbes of adult steers do not degrade rumen-protected or unprotected L-citrulline
Kyler R Gilbreath,Gayan Nawaratna,Tryon A Wickersham,M. Carey Satterfield,Fuller W. Bazer,Guoyao Wu +5 more
TL;DR: The results refute the view that all dietary AA are extensively catabolized by ruminal microorganisms, and also have important implications for dietary supplementation with Cit to ruminants to enhance the concentration of arginine in their plasma and their productivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ruminal microbes of adult steers do not degrade extracellular L-citrulline and have a limited ability to metabolize extracellular L-glutamate1,2.
Kyler R Gilbreath,Gayan Nawaratna,Tryon A Wickersham,M. Carey Satterfield,Fuller W. Bazer,Guoyao Wu +5 more
TL;DR: It is indicated, for the first time, that ruminal microbes of adult steers do not degrade extra-cellular L-citrulline and that metabolism ofextra-cellULAR L-glutamate is negligible compared to their ability to extensively catabolize extra- cellular L -arginine and L- glutamine.
