2011 journal article

Dietary conjugated linoleic acid alters long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism in brain and liver of neonatal pigs

The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry, 22(11), 1047–1054.

By: X. Lin n, J. Bo n, S. Oliver n, B. Corl n, S. Jacobi n, W. Oliver n, R. Harrell n, J. Odle n 

Contributors: X. Lin n, J. Bo n, S. Oliver n, B. Corl n, S. Jacobi n, W. Oliver n, R. Harrell n, J. Odle n 

MeSH headings : Acetyltransferases / metabolism; Animals; Animals, Newborn; Arachidonic Acid / metabolism; Brain / metabolism; Dietary Fats / administration & dosage; Fatty Acid Desaturases / metabolism; Fatty Acid Elongases; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / metabolism; Linoleic Acid / metabolism; Linoleic Acids, Conjugated / pharmacology; Liver / metabolism; Swine
TL;DR: Overall, the data show that dietary CLA shifted the distribution of the synthetic products of [U-(13)C]LA between elongation and desaturation in liver and decreased the total synthetic products in brain by inhibiting LA elongation to C20:2n-6. (via Semantic Scholar)

2005 journal article

Pigs weaned from the sow at 10 days of age respond to dietary energy source of manufactured liquid diets and exogenous porcine somatotropin

Journal of Animal Science, 83(5), 1002–1009.

By: W. Oliver n, K. Touchette, J. Coalson, C. Whisnant n, J. Brown  n, S. Oliver n, J. Odle n , R. Harrell n

MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animals; Blood Urea Nitrogen; Diet / veterinary; Dietary Fats / administration & dosage; Dietary Fats / pharmacology; Female; Growth Hormone / administration & dosage; Growth Hormone / pharmacology; Insulin-Like Growth Factor I / analysis; Insulin-Like Growth Factor I / drug effects; Leptin / blood; Male; Random Allocation; Swine / blood; Swine / growth & development; Time Factors; Weaning; Weight Gain / drug effects; Weight Gain / physiology
TL;DR: The results suggest that the ST/IGF axis is responsive in the young pig and the increase in circulating IGF-I and growth is independent of the source of dietary energy. (via Semantic Scholar)

2003 journal article

A gonadotropin-releasing factor vaccine (Improvac) and porcine somatotropin have synergistic and additive effects on growth performance in group-housed boars and gilts

Journal of Animal Science, 81(8), 1959–1966.

By: W. Oliver n, L. McCauley*, R. Harrell n, D. Sustert, D. Kerton* & F. Dunshea *

MeSH headings : Absorptiometry, Photon / veterinary; Adipose Tissue / growth & development; Animals; Body Composition / drug effects; Body Composition / physiology; Drug Synergism; Female; Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone / immunology; Growth Hormone / administration & dosage; Immunization / veterinary; Male; Random Allocation; Sexual Maturation; Swine / growth & development; Vaccines / administration & dosage; Weight Gain / drug effects
TL;DR: For pigs treated with both pST and Improvac, daily gain and lean tissue deposition rate was greater than for pigs that received either treatment alone, whereas fat deposition rate and feed intake did not differ from untreated control pigs. (via Semantic Scholar)

2003 journal article

A GnRF vaccine (Improvac (R)) and porcine somatotropin (Reporcin (R)) have synergistic effects upon growth performance in both boars and gilts

AUSTRALIAN JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH, 54(1), 11–20.

By: I. McCauley, M. Watt, D. Suster, D. Kerton, W. Oliver*, R. Harrell*, F. Dunshea

author keywords: GnRF; feed intake; boar taint; testes; ovaries
TL;DR: The concomitant vaccination against GnRF and treatment with pST affords an opportunity to increase growth rate and feed intake above control levels and above those of pigs treated with either treatment alone. (via Semantic Scholar)

By: S. Mathews n, W. Oliver n, O. Phillips n, J. Odle n , D. Diersen-Schade* & R. Harrell n

author keywords: long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid; pigs; neonates; arachidonic acid; docosahexaenoic acid
MeSH headings : Alanine Transaminase / metabolism; Animal Feed; Animals; Animals, Newborn; Arachidonic Acid / blood; Aspartate Aminotransferases / metabolism; Dietary Fats, Unsaturated / administration & dosage; Digestion; Docosahexaenoic Acids / blood; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / administration & dosage; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / metabolism; Humans; Ileum / pathology; Infant Food / analysis; Infant Food / standards; Infant, Newborn; Phospholipids / administration & dosage; Phospholipids / metabolism; Random Allocation; Swine; Triglycerides / administration & dosage; Triglycerides / metabolism; Visual Acuity / drug effects; Visual Acuity / physiology
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the algal/fungal TG sources of DHA and AA may be a more appropriate supplement for infant formulas than the egg PL source based on piglet plasma fatty acid profiles and apparent dry matter digestibilities. (via Semantic Scholar)
