Medium-Chain Fatty Acids but Not L-Carnitine Accelerate the Kinetics of [14C]Triacylglycerol Utilization by Colostrum-Deprived Newborn Pigs

The Journal of Nutrition, 132(7), 1989–1994.

By: K. Heo n, X. Lin n , I. Han* & J. Odle n 

Contributors: K. Heo n, X. Lin n , I. Han* & J. Odle n 

author keywords: pigs; neonate; carnitine; triglycerldes; fatty acid utilization
MeSH headings : Animals; Animals, Newborn / metabolism; Carbon Radioisotopes; Carnitine / pharmacology; Colostrum / physiology; Fatty Acids / chemistry; Fatty Acids / pharmacology; Intestinal Mucosa / metabolism; Kinetics; Oxidation-Reduction / drug effects; Swine; Triglycerides / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Metabolism and Genetic Disorders; Diet and metabolism studies; Clinical Nutrition and Gastroenterology
TL;DR: Findings quantify the accelerated oxidation of medium-chain vs. long-chain triglycerides, but fail to support a need for supplemental carnitine to maximize fat oxidation in colostrum-deprived piglets. (via Semantic Scholar)

2001 article

Liquid diets accelerate the growth of early-weaned pigs and the effects are maintained to market weight.

Kim, J. H., Heo, K. N., Odle, J., Han, K., & Harrell, R. J. (2001, January 1). Journal of Animal Science.

By: J. Kim n, K. Heo n, J. Odle  n, K. Han * & R. Harrell n

MeSH headings : Adipose Tissue / growth & development; Animal Feed; Animals; Hot Temperature; Housing, Animal; Linear Models; Milk / metabolism; Muscle Development; Muscle, Skeletal / growth & development; Random Allocation; Swine / growth & development; Swine / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Animal Nutrition and Physiology; Animal Behavior and Welfare Studies; Agriculture Sustainability and Environmental Impact
TL;DR: It is shown that liquid feeding during early life can markedly accelerate piglet growth performance and that the growth advantage is maintained to market weight, with no evidence of compensatory gain in the dry-fed control pigs. (via Semantic Scholar)

Dietary L-Carnitine Improves Nitrogen Utilization in Growing Pigs Fed Low Energy, Fat-Containing Diets

Heo, K., Odle, J., Han, I. K., Cho, W., Seo, S., Heugten, E., & Pilkington, D. H. (2000, July 1). Journal of Nutrition, Vol. 130, pp. 1809–1814.

By: K. Heo n, J. Odle n , I. Han*, W. Cho*, S. Seo *, E. Heugten n , D. Pilkington

author keywords: pigs; carnitine; biosynthesis; nitrogen balance; body composition
MeSH headings : Adipose Tissue / metabolism; Animal Feed; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Body Composition; Carnitine / metabolism; Carnitine / pharmacology; Dietary Fats / administration & dosage; Dietary Fats / pharmacology; Dietary Proteins / metabolism; Dietary Supplements; Energy Metabolism; Nitrogen / metabolism; Swine / growth & development; Swine / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Metabolism and Genetic Disorders; Diet and metabolism studies; Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors
TL;DR: It is concluded that endogenous carnitine biosynthesis may be adequate to maintain sufficient tissue levels during growth, but that supplemental dietary Carnitine may be retained sufficiently so as to alter nutrient partitioning and thus body composition of 20-kg pigs. (via Semantic Scholar)

Kinetics of Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase-I Are Altered by Dietary Variables and Suggest a Metabolic Need for Supplemental Carnitine in Young Pigs

The Journal of Nutrition, 130(10), 2467–2470.

By: K. Heo n, X. Lin n , J. Odle n  & I. Han*

author keywords: pigs; carnitine; protein; carnitine palmitoyltransferase-I; liver; muscle
MeSH headings : Animals; Carnitine / administration & dosage; Carnitine / analogs & derivatives; Carnitine / metabolism; Carnitine O-Palmitoyltransferase / metabolism; Diet; Dietary Supplements; Kinetics; Liver / metabolism; Mitochondria / enzymology; Mitochondria, Liver / enzymology; Muscle, Skeletal / metabolism; Muscle, Skeletal / ultrastructure; Soybean Oil; Soybeans; Swine / physiology; Zea mays
topics (OpenAlex): Metabolism and Genetic Disorders; Mitochondrial Function and Pathology; Diet and metabolism studies
TL;DR: It is inferred that alteration of tissue carnitine concentrations via dietary supplementation could modulate CPT-I activity in young pigs. (via Semantic Scholar)
