GLUTAMINE AND ITS USE IN SELECTED ONCOLOGY SETTINGS

Glutamine and its use in selected oncology settings

This review summarises the latest evidence for the use of glutamine (GLN) in oncology taking cognisance of current systematic reviews and available guidelines.Various studies in adults suggest that GLN supplementation suppresses tumour growth, by restoring the function of natural killer cells; improves protein metabolism; and, possibly enhances the

Changes in the Milk Metabolome of the Giant Panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) with Time after Birth--Three Phases in Early Lactation and Progressive Individual Differences.

Ursids (bears) in general, and giant pandas in particular, are highly altricial at birth.The components of bear milks and their changes with time may be uniquely adapted to nourish relatively immature neonates, protect them from pathogens, and support the maturation of neonatal digestive physiology.Serial milk samples collected from three giant pan

Hot Isostatic Pressing Control of Tungsten-Based Composites

Metal-oxide composites are commonly used in high beetroot birkenstock temperature environments for their thermal stability and high melting points.Commonly employed with refractory oxides or carbides such as ZrC and HfC, these materials may be improved with the use of a low density, high melting point ceramic such as CeO2.In this work, the consolid
