Dietary gangliosides enhance in vitro glucose uptake in weanling ratsLaurie A Drozdowski
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, Division of Gastroenterology, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 31:423-9. 2007..2% GANG-enriched diet for 2 weeks alters in vitro intestinal sugar absorption in weanling rats compared with an isocaloric control diet or diet enriched with polyunsaturated long-chain fatty acids...- Short-chain fatty acids and total parenteral nutrition affect intestinal gene expressionLaurie A Drozdowski
Department of Agricultural, Food and Nutritional Science, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada
JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 26:145-50. 2002..Accordingly, this study was undertaken to determine the relative role of butyrate in initiating an adaptive response in nonresected rats receiving TPN... 
Maternal dexamethasone and GLP-2 have early effects on intestinal sugar transport in their suckling rat offspringLaurie A Drozdowski
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada T6G2N8
J Nutr Biochem 20:771-82. 2009..In conclusion, maternal GLP-2 and DEX reduced intestinal sugar uptake in their offspring. This may have nutritional implications for the offspring of mothers treated with GLP-2 or steroids...- Dexamethasone and GLP-2 administered to rat dams during pregnancy and lactation have late effects on intestinal sugar transport in their postweaning offspringLaurie A Drozdowski
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, Department of Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada T6G 2N8
J Nutr Biochem 19:49-60. 2008..These alterations in uptake may have nutritional implications for the offspring of mothers who may be treated with GLP-2 or glucocorticosteroids... - Intestinal mucosal adaptationLaurie Drozdowski
University of Alberta, Edmonton AB, T6G 2N8, Canada
World J Gastroenterol 12:4614-27. 2006..Identifying factors that may enhance the process of intestinal adaptation is an exciting area of research with important potential clinical applications... - Intestinal sugar transportLaurie A Drozdowski
Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, University of Alberta, 5150 Dentistry Pharmacy Building, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2N8, Canada
World J Gastroenterol 12:1657-70. 2006..This paper reviews the early studies that contributed to the development of a working model of intestinal sugar transport, and details the recent advances made in understanding the process by which sugars are absorbed in the intestine... - A combination of dexamethasone and glucagon-like peptide-2 increase intestinal morphology and glucose uptake in suckling ratsLaurie A Drozdowski
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 42:32-9. 2006..CONCLUSIONS: The combination of these hormones may be useful in stimulating glucose uptake in the developing intestine, and giving DEX to sucklings may enhance glucose uptake in later life... - Age-associated changes in intestinal fructose uptake are not explained by alterations in the abundance of GLUT5 or GLUT2Laurie A Drozdowski
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, 5146 Dentistry Pharmacy Building, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB T6G 2N8, Canada
J Nutr Biochem 15:630-7. 2004..These results indicate that 1) the effect of age on fructose uptake depends on the method used to express results, and 2) the age-associated changes in uptake are not explained by alterations in GLUT5 and GLUT2... - The age-related decline in intestinal lipid uptake is associated with a reduced abundance of fatty acid-binding proteinTrudy D Woudstra
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Lipids 39:603-10. 2004..Thus, the decrease with aging in the ileal uptake of some FA when rates were expressed on the basis of mucosal weight was associated with a reduced abundance of I-FABP and ILBP... - Dietary gangliosides enhance in vitro lipid uptake in weanling ratsCelina J Birecki
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 42:59-65. 2006..CONCLUSION: We speculate that the enhanced uptake of long-chain fatty acids in weanling rats fed GANG may be caused by a modification in physical properties of the BBM... - Lipid malabsorption persists after weaning in rats whose dams were given GLP-2 and dexamethasoneClaudiu Iordache
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, Department of Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Lipids 40:1141-8. 2005..Giving dams GLP-2 or DEX during pregnancy and lactation reduced lipid uptake in the offspring, and this persisted for at least 1 mon. The impact this may have on the nutritional well-being of the animal in later life is unknown...

Division of General Internal Medicine, Department of Medicine, University of Alberta, Alberta, T6G 2B7, Canada
World J Gastroenterol 16:787-99. 2010....- An isocaloric PUFA diet enhances lipid uptake and weight gain in aging ratsTrudy D Woudstra
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Lipids 39:343-54. 2004..Future studies must determine whether the enhanced lipid uptake and body weight gain observed in older animals fed PUFA have any therapeutic benefit... - Beta-glucan extracts inhibit the in vitro intestinal uptake of long-chain fatty acids and cholesterol and down-regulate genes involved in lipogenesis and lipid transport in ratsLaurie A Drozdowski
Nutrition and Metabolism Group, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
J Nutr Biochem 21:695-701. 2010..Dietary fiber reduces the intestinal absorption of nutrients and the blood concentrations of cholesterol and triglycerides...
