A lower efficiency of N utilization for milk protein synthesis with RCS relative to GS was associated with decreased availability of AA for absorption, with some evidence of an imbalance in the supply of AA relative to requirements.
This reduction in size is likely due to hypercapnic suppression of metabolism causing delayed development and decreased availability of CaCO3 for skeletogenesis.
This explains the reduced biosorption at higher pH which might be due to the abundance of OH? ions that caused decreased availability of adsorbable components for biosorption.
These results imply that the heart in response to decreased availability of circulating lipids for FAO, is unable to activate compensatory stress mechanism to increase efficient energy production resulting in eventual neonatal lethality.
Another possible reason for endothelial NO deficiency is decreased availability of L-arginine, the substrate for NOS and the precursor for NO [ 26].
This discrepancy might be explained if insufficient quantities of TAR RNA are present in the cytoplasm during viral replication to effectively compete for TRBP, if the cap structure or extended RNA sequence present on authentic viral transcripts can affect TRBP binding, or if a protein with redundant function in RNAi, such as PACT [55], [56], can compensate for the decreased availability of TRBP.
It has been suggested that oxidative stress and decreased availability of NO are causative for endothelial dysfunction induced by smoking [ 32, 33].
Therefore, it is probable that the decreased availability of 5-methyl THF for DNA methylation is the crucial mechanism behind the expected increased risk of lung cancer in subjects with the genotypes related to low MTHFR activity.
These investigators also found that after maturation, cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase activities were decreased in both WT and R/O hens, which was most likely due to the decreased availability of cholesterol substrate pools for bile acid synthesis (Mitchell et al., 1979).
The observed decrease in the catalase activity in CsA treated rats is due to the decreased availability of NADPH which is required for catalase activity from its inactive form.
