Oral chronic
gavage with galanin in diabetic mice increases insulin sensitivity, which is associated with an improvement of several metabolic parameters such as glucose tolerance, fasting blood glucose, and insulin.
«A single dose of D+Q (D: 5 mg kg − 1 body weight and Q: 50 mg kg − 1 by
oral gavage here and in the following studies), a drug ratio that was most effective in senescent MEFs (data not shown), reduced SA - βgal + cells (Fig.
Behavioral and physiologic effects of nonnutritive sucking during
gavage feeding in preterm infants.
At - breast supplementers can also be made inexpensively using a # 3.5 or # 5 french
gavage tube (available from a health care provider) inserted into a regular bottle.
Breast milk can also be administered via medical equipment, as
in gavage feeding.
Nonnutritive sucking
during gavage feeding enhances growth and maturation in premature infants.
Mutant and WT mice were treated for 4 weeks with control or ApoC - III ASO, fasted for 4 hours, and
orally gavaged with corn oil containing [3H] retinol.
Blood was collected 3 hours
after gavage by cardiac puncture.
Previous studies of the effect of breastfeeding on morbidity among full - term infants have not always accounted for selection bias that may result if infants who are breastfed are inherently healthier than bottle - fed infants.22 In the current study, the VLBW infants» ability to breastfeed did not reflect better health status as both human milk and infant formula were provided
via gavage feeding especially during early enteral feedings.
At many hospitals it's standard practice to start off feeding very premature babies expressed breast milk through a nasogastric (NG) tube (known
as gavage).
She was introduced to a bottle at about 1 1/2 wks (
solely gavaged before that) and the breast around the same time.

When they're stable and ready to begin feedings, they're given a
nasal gavage (NG) tube that goes directly from their nose to their stomach and food is pushed through.
BAZ2 - ICR showed very high solubility (25 mM in D2O), a measured log D of 1.05, high stability in mouse microsomes, and permeation in the CaCo - 2 model and thus a suitable profile for oral and
intravenous gavage.
Repetitive treatment with the ApoC - III ASO progressively decreased plasma TGs (Supplemental Figure 6B) and increased TG clearance after oral corn
oil gavage (Supplemental Figure 6C) or after injection of [3H] triolein - labeled Liposyn particles (Figure 8E).
(A) Postprandial TG clearance in fasted mutant and WT mice treated for 4 weeks with control or ApoC - III ASO after an oral
gavage of corn oil (250 μl).
The biodistribution of ellagic acid was studied in
mice gavaged with ellagic acid.
Female Dark Agouti rats (110 — 150 g) were
orogastrically gavaged with emu oil (0 · 5 or 1 ml) or water (1 ml) for 5 d before intraperitoneal injection of 5 - fluorouracil (5 - FU, 150 mg / kg) or saline (control), and this was continued up to the day of sacrifice (48, 72 and 96 h post 5 - FU administration).
Germfree mice were
orally gavaged with ~ 2 × 108 CFU of bacteria in a volume of 200 μl on Day 0.
Blood was obtained every 2 hours via the tail vein and 8 hours
after gavage by cardiac puncture.
In summary, imidacloprid was not found to affect reproductive variables or cause birth defects at doses which did not cause maternal toxicity, when the pregnant animals were exposed
via gavage during the critical developmental phases of their pregnancy.
To measure the impact of ApoC - III suppression on the clearance of dietary TGs in the circulation, we administered a bolus of corn oil by
oral gavage to mice treated with ApoC - III ASO and sampled their blood at various time points.
Similar results were obtained when overnight - fasted mice were orally
gavaged with a bolus of corn oil containing [3H] retinol (the disappearance of [3H] retinol from plasma is a direct measure of hepatic clearance of intestinally derived lipoproteins)(Figure 4, C — I).
Preemies often require feeding through IV or
gavage feeding (in which they are fed milk through a tube).
Colostrum should be expressed and given by spoon or cup, or by
gavage (tube) if necessary.
Until your baby grows big enough to breastfeed well, NICU staff can feed him your pumped milk in
a gavage tube or bottle.
Mice were fasted for 5 hours and subjected to oral
gavage (200 μl / mouse) with 5 μCi [11,12 - 3H] retinol in corn oil (Sigma - Aldrich).
Briefly, 25 μCi [11,12 - 3H]- retinol (PerkinElmer, 44 Ci / mmol) in ethanol was mixed with 1 ml corn oil (Sigma - Aldrich) and 200 μl was administered by
gavage to mice fasted from 4 am until 9 am.
At 1 pm, they were given a 200 - μl bolus of corn oil (Sigma - Aldrich) by oral
gavage.
TG levels were measured 0, 1, 2, and 3 hours after
gavage (n = 3 — 5 / group).
METHODOLOGY / PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: HLA - DQ8 / HCD4 mice were sensitized with gluten, and
gavaged with indomethacin plus gluten.
Treatment by
gavage (300 mg / kg) with the pure anthocyanins, delphinidin -3-O-glucoside and malvidin -3-O-glucoside, formulated with Labrasol, showed that malvidin -3-O-glucoside was significantly hypoglycemic while delphinidin -3-O-glucoside was not.
