Synthesis of erythrocyte glutathione in healthy adults consuming the safe amount of dietary protein (2004)

Jackson, Alan A., Gibson, Neil R., Lu, Yi, Jahoor, Farook

Background: The finding that plasma glutathione turnover decreases as dietary protein intake decreases suggests that the safe amount of dietary protein, although sufficient for maintenance of...

Response of hepatic proteins to the lowering of habitual dietary protein to the recommended safe level of intake (2004)

Afolabi, Paul R., Jahoor, Farook, Gibson, Neil R., Jackson, Alan A.

The plasma concentrations of albumin, HDL apolipoprotein A1 (apoA1), retinol-binding protein (RBP), transthyretin (TTR), haptoglobulin, and fibrinogen were measured, and a stable isotope infusion...

Transfer of (15)N from oral lactose-ureide to lysine in normal adults (2004)

Jackson, Alan A., Gibson, Neil R., Bundy, Rafe, Hounslow, Angela, Millward, D. Joe, Wootton, Stephen A.

The metabolic fate of salvaged urea-nitrogen was explored in normal adults who had consumed a diet that provided 36 g protein/day for 7 days. We hypothesised that the colonic microflora utilise...

Endogenous glycine and tyrosine production is maintained in adults consuming a marginal-protein diet (2002)

Gibson, Neil R., Jahoor, Farook, Ware, Lisa, Jackson, Alan A.

Background: The adequacy of indispensable amino acid supplies has received much attention in studies of protein requirements, but the availability of nitrogen for synthesis and maintenance of the...
