The book is intended to provide in-depth reviews of the recent
advances in major areas of metabolism in growing domestic animals.
The study of metabolism represents a nexus of biological phenomenon
that integrates the impact of nutrition, physiology, endocrinology,
immunology, biochemistry, and cell biology in an organism. The
development of new methodological techniques and experimental
approaches have provide scientists with a greater understanding of
how key nutrients or substrates are metabolized at the cellular,
organ, and whole animal level. This book presents contributions
from leading scientists in nutrition and physiology that highlight
important new developments in interorgan and tissue-specific
metabolism of protein and amino acids, lipids and fatty acids, and
carbohydrates in monogastric and runinant species. Authors will
describe the impact of specific biochemical pathways and expression
of critical enzymes, routes of nutrient or substrate input, and
anatomical or structural influences on the rates of metabolism in a
given tissue or cell type. Major substrates/ fuels for oxidative
metabolism, key signaling pathways, and intracellular molecules
that regulate the major metabolic processes will be described. Also
included is how the metabolism of growing animals is influenced by
ontogeny, stage of differentiation, and major changes in diet, or
the environment. The concepts and specific findings in each area
are discussed in the context of their impact on the nutrient
requirements, growth, environmental impact, healt and well-being of
animals. The book will be a useful reference for research
scientists, teachers and students interested in and advanced
understanding of metabolism in growing animals. The book is written
by leading experts and highlights some of the most recent advances
in the field of metabolism. It is a useful reference for
researchers and advanced level graduate students in nutrition,
physiology and animal science. Presents recent advances in the
field of metabolism.
