Gluconeogenesis in cattle: significance and methodology.

TL;DR: A review of the biochemical changes that occur in rennet-coagulated cheeses during ripening can be found in this article, with a focus on secondary reactions such as the production of volatile flavour compounds.

TL;DR: Increased production of PA by the microbiota might be considered beneficial in the context of prevention of obesity and diabetes type 2, and PA emerges as a major mediator in the link between nutrition, gut microbiota and physiology.

TL;DR: An improved understanding of the complex mechanisms underlying gluconeogenesis may further improve options to enhance the postpartum health status of dairy cows.

TL;DR: The findings that the active rumen microbiome may contribute to variations in feed efficiency of beef cattle highlight the possibility of enhancing nutrient utilization and improve cattle feed efficiency through modification of rumen microbial functions.

TL;DR: A mixture of [14C] amino acids was administered intravenously to a lactating dairy cow, and the appearance of 14C in various constituents of the blood and and milk was followed over the subsequent 16 hours.

TL;DR: Experiments are reported in which sheep were given roughage diets or a high concentrate diet and the VFA absorbed from the rumen were estimated by an in vitro fermentation procedure, and the differences were not significant for the other diets.

TL;DR: Nuclear-free liver homogenates were employed to study the rate of incorporation of specifically labeled propionate into methyl-malonate and tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates, finding that as the degree of stress of lactation increased, the ability to metabolize Propionate decreased.

TL;DR: Using the constant infusion isotope dilution method, the rates of entry of glucose and free amino acids hare been measured in 4 Clun Forest ewes which were pregnant (133–139 days) with twins, finding that glucose was similar to that of the non-pregnant sheep.
