Sentence examples for nutrient preference from inspiring English sources

All integrated modules have their specific limitations, which are related to uptake kinetics, nutrient preference, unwanted conversion processes and abiotic factors.

Neural TOR signaling in turn modulates nutrient preference at least partly by increasing levels of the neuromodulator serotonin in the brain [ 80].

Future studies will likely elucidate the extent to which the cellular mechanisms and neural pathways that regulate nutrient preference are shared between invertebrates and mammals.

Further studies will reveal whether leptin modulates excitatory output to the VTA via MCH neurons or influences nutrient preference by a direct effect on DA neurons in the VTA.

In summary, these results confirm that MCH neurons are both necessary and sufficient for sensing the nutrient value of sucrose and suggest that these neurons play a critical role in establishing nutrient preference.

In test meals, they not only consume more calories in absolute terms, but also show an alteration in nutrient preference [ 77], supporting our contention that perhaps one's FTO status can influence the direct sensing of dietary macronutrient content by the brain.

These observations are consistent with the notion that nutrient preferences are isolate-dependent (Wu et al. 2008).

However, an elegant report exhibits the nutrient preferences of proliferating fibroblasts and cancer cells in the presence of glucose and/or lipids (palmitate).

(ii) Soil chemistry (e.g. N, pH) may correlate with microbial communities, for example, if soil microbe species differ in their nutrient preferences or soil chemistry niche axes.

The underlying assumption of this study is that the host's genetic capacities for growth and immune response determine the animal's nutrient requirements and preference of allocating nutrients to either process, and that nutrient availability stipulates the extent at which the genetic potentials are expressed if the animal is under pathogen challenge.

The objectives of these studies were to determine whether the adverse effects of feeding poor-quality forages could be alleviated by adding activated carbon as a feed additive through observing the effect of activated carbon on apparent nutrient digestibility and taste preferences.
