Methods: A systematic search of PubMed and Ovid Embase was performed using the following terms: infant, newborn, newborn infant, neonate, neonates, heart, cardiac, blood pressure, haemodynamic, hemodynamics, blood circulation, circulation...

...Theodore A. Slotkin; Deadre J. Johnson; Frederic J. Seidler Fetal exposure to cocaine is associated with increased perinatal cardiac risk. In the current study, we examined the effects of acute cocaine administration on ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity in fetal and neonatal rat heart. ODC...

Heart Lung Brain Suckling Hepatic lipase Abstract Lipoprotein lipase in animal tissues is known to be affected by fasting, but contradictory results have been published con­ cerning this effect in particular tissues. For example, we reported that lipoprotein lipase activity expressed in the liver...

...) are the result of an inverse relationship between recovery and the decrease in intracellular pH (pH i ) during ischemia. Neonatal (3-8 days) and adult rabbit hearts were Langendorff perfused using two protocols: (1) control – 30min perfusion, 30 min global ischemia, 2 h reperfusion; (2) CCC – the same except...

... pronounced decrease of protein content and enzyme activities in heart tissue as well as a significantly higher elevation of enzyme activities in blood plasma as compared with the offspring from normoxic rats. These results suggest a long-lasting enhancement of catecholamine sensitivity after prenatal oxygen...

...James E. Carroll; Byron S. McGuire; Valerie F. Chancey; Katherine B. Harrison Fatty acid oxidation rates tend to increase with age in most developing tissues. In skeletal muscle, heart, and liver of developing rats, we measured activities of three acyl-CoA dehydrogenase enzymes, which constitute...

... mothers showed growth retardation, decreased level of heart mitochondrial protein, reduced myocardial free fatty acid (FFA) oxidation at birth and afterwards, low glucose oxidation by the heart at later fetal stages, and afterwards, despite low heart glycogen reserve, glucose oxidation was high...

... day of postnatal age. The vitamin A contents of fetal hepatic and extra-hepatic tissues (lung, heart and brain) were increased with the age of pups and this increase was observed to be dependent on the supply of vitamin A to the mother.

Breyer; Randall Jones; Stanley Lemeshow; Hajime Otani The developmental profiles of the antioxidative defense system and the peroxidative status of the heart during growth and development were studied in pigs of three...

...-treated animals: the elevation of calcium values in 10-F rats was greater in plasma (p < 0.0005), heart (p < 0.0025), and kidney (p < 0.0005). Stated another way, furosemide was associated with severely disordered calcium metabolism only in animals fed suboptimal magnesium. Studies exploring...

... and cholesterogenesis was studied with the help of sodium-1- 14 C-acetate incorporation. The heart, liver and lung showed impaired lipogenesis while in the brain only cholesterogenesis was affected. 18 9 2009 © 1984 S.

...Julia F. Clark; Charles M. Clark, jr. Cells isolated from the hearts of newborn (1-day-old) rat accumulate 14 C-glucose. Insulin stimulates glucose accumulation by the heart cells. Values for net accumulation of glucose by heart cells agree well with those values obtained earlier using whole hearts...

... reductases were studied during the development of the heart, brain and liver of the rat. The liver is the tissue with highest NADPH-consuming activities. Transhydrogenase activity is highest in the heart; it undergoes two steep increases of activity, one at birth and another between 15 and 25 days. Liver...

...Christian Frelin; Odile Bonnard Uridine phosphorylase activity was assayed in heart extracts from rats of different postnatal age. Activity was low at birth, increased to a maximum at 8–14 days of postnatal development and then decreased to a low adult level. The switch from cellular hyperplasia...
