▼ An exploratory study was undertaken for the purpose of identifying the mother and infant behaviors during the feeding-eating process, to produce a tool for recording such behavior, and to obtain information to serve as a basis for predicting which bottle feeding mothers will need outside assistance to successfully caring for their newborn infants. The sample included six primiparas, one of who was unwed, and multiparas. The mothers and infants were observed twice daily during their hospital stay beginning the first post-partum day and once at home. The total minutes of observation for the entire sample was 1058; the range of total observation lengths for single mother-infant pairs was 56 minutes for the shortest period and 124 minutes for the longest. The sample included two mothers with previous spontaneous abortions. One mother had aborted three times and the other mother had aborted once. The number of previous abortions correlated with more items than any other variable. There were positive correlations with the touching categories of fingering and no contact (P < 0.01) indicating the lack of contact the mother had with her baby. The care category of changing the diaper had a positive correlation (P > 0.01) indicating that the mother spent a relatively large amount of time during the feeding period in this activity. Holding the bottle had a negative correlation significant at the 0.001 level; thus the mother with previous abortions tended to prop the bottle. During ht observations the mother with three previous abortions was the only one who propped the bottle for long periods of time. Mothers with previous abortions perceived their infants as crying much of the time (P < .0.001); and stated they were uncomfortable during the observations periods (P < 0.001). The mother’s response to the baby’s crying and her secondary efforts to comfort the baby were both negatively correlated at the 0.05 level of significance, indicating that the mother used minimal levels of care to comfort the baby. The study was too small to draw any decisive conclusion. However, the mother’s contact with her infant, per perception of the amount of the infant crying, her method of handling the bottle, her initial and secondary responses to the infant’s crying and her comfort during the feeding observations are areas which should provide fruitful areas for investigation in the future.

▼ The objective of study 1 was to examine the associations between feeding behavior traits and performance and residual feed intake (RFI) in Brangus steers (N = 84). Steers with low-RFI phenotypes consumed 19% less (P < 0.01) DM intake while BW and ADG were similar compared to high-RFI steers. Steers with low RFI also spent 21% less time at the feed bunk, had 6% fewer (P < 0.05) bunk visit (BV) events, and tended (P = 0.08) to have 11% shorter meal durations per day than steers with high RFI. There were no differences in carcass quality or carcass income, therefore the reduction in feed cost of the low-RFI steers resulted in an increase (P < 0.05) in net revenue of 145 per animal compared to high-RFI steers. Time to bunk (TTB) was quantified on a daily basis as the interval length between feed truck delivery and the first BV event. Time to bunk was weakly correlated (P < 0.05) in a negative manner with ADG (-0.27) and positively correlated with exit velocity (0.25) and F:G ratio (0.25). Steers with low-TTB phenotypes gained 18% faster (P < 0.05), tended (P = 0.08) to have 11% more favorable F:G, and resulted in 88 more net revenue per animal (P < 0.05) than steers with high TTB. Results from this study demonstrated that animals with divergent phenotypes for RFI exhibited distinctive feeding behavior patterns, suggesting that feeding behavior traits could be useful as phenotypic biomarkers for RFI. The objective of study 2 was to characterize deviations in DM intake and feeding behaviors in bulls (N = 231) exhibiting clinical symptoms of bovine respiratory disease (BRD). The bulls were separated into 2 cohort groups based on observed clinical illness (N = 30) or those treated metaphylactically Draxxin (N = 201). A 2-slope broken-line regression model was applied separately on a population basis to the clinically-ill and metaphylaxis-treated cohorts to identify inflection points in DM intake and feeding behavior traits. The model detected inflection points for DM intake were 6.79 and 3.81 d prior to observed clinical illness or metaphylaxis treatment, respectively. Furthermore, the model detected inflection points for individual feeding behavior traits that (BV frequency and duration, Head down duration, maximum non-feeding interval, and non-feeding interval SD) ranged from 14.19 to 1.32 d prior to observed clinical illness, and from 12.59 to 3.79 d prior to metaphylaxis treatment. To further assess the value of monitoring deviations in feeding behavior traits as a method for pre-clinical detection of infectious disease individual CUSUM charts were constructed in a daily iterative manner to replicate real-time data analysis. The CUSUM model based on DM intake yielded a high proportion of true positives (87%; model predicted animal as ill) and high model test efficiency (89%) in the clinically-ill cohort, whereas, in the metaphylaxis-treated cohort the proportion of true positives detected (71%) and test efficiency (84%) were slightly lower. While time of model detection prior to observed clinical illness based on DM… Advisors/Committee Members: Carstens, Gordon E (advisor), Tedeschi, Luis O (committee member), Pinchak, William B (committee member).

▼ The objectives of this study were to examine the effects of vaccine treatment (VT) and temperament on DMI, performance, and feeding behavior responses to a BVD viral challenge. Nellore-Angus crossbred steers (N =360; initial BW 330 ± 48 kg) were assigned to 1 of 3 vaccine treatments: non-vaccinated (NON), modified live (MLV), and killed (KV). Performance, DMI, and feeding behavior traits were monitored for 56 d during 4 14-d periods, using a GrowSafe® system. All steers were inoculated intranasally with a BVDV type 1b at the end of the first 14-d period. Exit velocity (EV) was measured on days 0 and 14 and the average was used to compute initial relative exit velocity (REV), which was used to examine the effects of temperament. As expected, DMI, ADG, G:F, and frequency and duration of feeding events all decreased (P < 0.01) during period 2 following BVD viral challenge and subsequently increased during period 3. Average daily gain and G:F were not affected by vaccine treatment or the VT x period. However, the reduction in DMI following BVD viral challenge was less (P < 0.05) for MLV-vaccinated steers compared to KV- and NON-vaccinated steers. There were no VT x period interactions for any of the feeding behavior responses. Vaccine treatment clearly altered feeding behavior responses, such that MLV-vaccinated steers had greater (P < 0.01) duration of feeding events, meal frequency, and slower (P < 0.01) eating rates compared to KV- and NON-vaccinated steers. In general, calm steers (initial REV – 1 SD) had lower DMI, ADG, and G:F compared to excitable steers (initial REV + 1 SD). Temperament affected feeding behavior responses such that, calm steers had greater feeding duration and slower eating rates compared to excitable steers. With the exception of meal frequency, VT x initial REV interactions indicate there were greater differences between vaccine treatments within calm steers compared to excitable steers. Overall the results of the current study suggest that the MLV vaccine mitigated the negatives effects of the BVD vial challenge to a greater extent than the KV vaccine, which corresponds with previous findings regarding immune responses.

▼ The growing epidemic of obesity and eating disorders demands the study of regulatory mechanisms of food intake. Studying mutants whose food intake is altered under various conditions has greatly advanced our understanding of the mechanism. However, it is still largely unknown by which mechanisms perception of food activates food intake. The simple anatomy, genetic tractability, and well-characterized and quantifiable feeding behavior and evolutionary conservation of feeding regulators make C. elegans an attractive model system for the study. Food intake in C. elegans requires two muscle motions, pharyngeal pumping and isthmus peristalsis, and the frequencies of the two feeding motions dramatically increase in response to food as in other organisms. I attempted to understand the mechanism underlying food-induced feeding activation by studying the mechanism and the physiological context of action of serotonin, an endogenous activator of pharyngeal pumping. Here I show that like food, serotonin increases overall feeding by activating both feeding motions. Serotonin activates the two feeding motions by activating two distinct neural pathways. A 5-HT7 receptor activated the two motions mainly by acting in the two distinct pharyngeal motor neurons that are essential for food-induced feeding activation. Moreover, the results support that the serotonin receptor activated the two distinct neurons mainly by activating two distinct downstream G protein signaling pathways. Despite the separate regulation, isthmus peristalsis was coupled to the preceding pharyngeal pump. The separate regulation with coupling of the two feeding motions may have evolved to support efficient feeding by allowing control of the ratio of the frequencies of the two muscle motions according to density of food and by preventing futile isthmus peristalsis. Then, which aspect of food triggers the serotonin signal that increases food intake? I found that recognition of familiar food selectively triggers the serotonin signal. Worms selectively consume particular bacteria more actively after experience and the behavioral plasticity requires serotonin signaling. By dissecting the mechanism, I found that recognition of familiar food triggers serotonin release from a pair of chemosensory neurons. The released serotonin acts as an endocrine signal to increase pharyngeal pumping rate by activating the pharyngeal motor neuron that directly triggers pharyngeal pumping. The results suggest that worms form a memory of previously experienced food and that the memory controls food intake. Consistently, the familiar-food induced feeding was strongly dependent on duration of exposure to food to learn but not developmental timing of exposure or nutritional status. Furthermore, worms could remember the previously experienced food at least for several hours. My study provides insight into how feeding organ operates to increase food intake in response to food and how a particular aspect of food controls the process to increase food intake in C. elegans.… Advisors/Committee Members: Avery, Leon.

▼ The oral cavity is the part of the animal internal medium that first comes into contact with food. Numerous chemical and mechanical receptors in the mouth respond to the food chemical and physical properties and monitor the changes during processing. This leads; to central perception of taste and texture of food, which, together with odor, are important determinants in the decision of to ingest or not. Saliva plays an important role in the perception of taste and texture sensations. Its composition can modulate food perception and, simultaneously, be modulated by the type of diet. This thesis is focused on the study of the role of salivary proteins on ingestive behavior. Tannins are used as a modal to access changes in salivary protein profile induced by dietary compounds. These plant secondary metabolites produce aversive taste/oral sensations influencing animal diet choices. The levels of dietary tannins tolerated vary according to the physiological mechanisms that animals possess to avoid their potential negative effects. Saliva, and more particularly salivary proteins, has been pointed as a defense mechanism against tannins. Three animal species were studied: sheep, goat and mice. The first two species are ruminant species and present similar digestive characteristics, but differ between them in the levels of dietary tannins tolerated. Mice, on the other hand, represent a rodent mammalian specie with different digestive characteristics. We have studied the effect of tannins on mice salivary gland histomorphology (chapter 2) since these are the sites of salivary protein production. Both condensed and hydrolysable tannins produced major effects in the acinar structures, with condensed tannins having a stronger effect. The similarities between these effects and the ones produced by isoproterenol suggested that tannins act through activation of sympathetic nervous system. The effects of quebracho tannin and tannic acid on mice whole saliva protein composition were studied by comparing the SDS-PAGE profile of control animals to the ones from animas fed with these compounds during 10 days (chapter 3). Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) data were used to identify salivary proteins. One isoform of salivary amylase was observed to increase in response to both types of tannins. Despite a considerable number of studies on mice salivary glands and saliva, a proteome of mice whole saliva was not, at our knowledge, characterized to date. In chapter 4 we used two-dimensional electrophoresis coupled to MALDI-TOF MS for this purpose. A total of 26 proteins were identified. The effects of the ingestion of quebracho tannin for a period of ten days were studied in the salivary protein fraction, which does not precipitate tannins. The expression leveis of one isoform of alpha amylase and of an unidentified protein were observed to increase, whereas acidic mammalian chitinase and Muc10 decreased. Additionally, two protein spots were induced, that were not identified by MS,… Advisors/Committee Members: Baptista, Elvira Sales, Coelho, Ana Varela.

▼ Amongst the many ecological processes that can have an influence on community structure within marine ecosystems, herbivory is recognised as having an important role. Algae are not only living components of the community, they often provide a physical structure, food and protection indispensable for many other species. Therefore, understanding herbivore behaviour and their effects on the surrounding habitat is vital to further comprehend benthic marine ecosystem dynamics. Strength of herbivory is often determined by simple numbers of individual herbivores. There are however, other factors that may influence herbivore feeding behaviour such as food quantity and quality. Changes in food availability can have a strong influence on the dynamics of consumers that rely on allochthonous sources as their main supply of energy. I tested the hypothesis that a decrease in per capita food supply to a sedentary herbivore has a negative effect on herbivore condition and also affects the surrounding habitat through changes herbivore feeding behaviour. The reduction in food supply had a negative influence on herbivore gonad condition, whilst concomitant increases in consumer density caused greater foraging of the surrounding habitat. Poor consumer condition can be the result of food limitation and in some cases can lead to stronger herbivory. This process could help explain barrens creation across many subtidal rocky coasts. Ecological traits may have a stronger influence on population and community dynamics than currently acknowledged; particularly sedentary herbivores that may be incapable of migrating to alternate environments. I assessed the effects of origin of food and its frequency of delivery on sea urchin behaviour and condition. Higher consumption rates and poorer condition were associated with food originating from sheltered coasts; coinciding with observations of urchin over-grazing in this type of Environment. Whilst algae derived from exposed coasts caused lower consumption rates and better condition; coinciding with no urchin over-grazing on exposed reefs. Understanding such trait-mediated responses to allochthonous food may assist the development of more comprehensive models that account for variation in strength of herbivory. Many studies have focussed on foraging of canopy-forming algae by sea urchins associated with barrens, however, foraging effects of urchins not associated with barrens is less clear. I tested the hypothesis that the sedentary (largely site attached) sea urchin Heliocidaris erythrogramma has detectable effects on the canopy-forming and understory algae. In a location where densities were at the upper limits of their range of a region that lacks sea urchin barrens, algal cover was estimated beneath and immediately around sea urchins. The area under the urchins was consistently bare rock. Sea urchin removal experiments showed that canopy-forming algae were able to develop in greater covers after 16 months and approached those in areas that naturally lacked urchins.

▼ Spiny lobsters are known as a valuable commercial species with limited availability, which makes them a promising candidate for aquaculture. However, to date, the production of spiny lobsters in captivity has been characterised by considerable variation in individual lobster growth rates leading to growth disparity and impacting on biomass production. One explanation for the growth disparity in spiny lobsters is the agonistic behaviour of dominant individuals, whereby they control and consume a disproportionate share of food resources, benefiting their own growth performance. However, the mechanisms of how behavioural and feeding traits of individual lobsters influence growth disparity in culture are poorly understood. Furthermore, research of a range of marine organisms has shown that variability in individual metabolic physiology (metabolic phenotype) can be an important factor influencing behaviour and growth. However, the relationship between metabolic phenotype and individual growth performance has not been previously investigated in any spiny lobster species. Understanding the influence of intraspecific diversity in physiological traits on growth performance of individuals is an important consideration for the development of optimal rearing conditions and management strategies for spiny lobsters aquaculture. This is the first study to focus on the influence of individual variations in physiology, behaviour and feeding on the growth performance of two commercial temperate spiny lobsters species, Sagmariasus verreauxi and Jasus edwardsii juveniles in captivity. In Chapter 2, the influence of metabolic phenotype and social behaviour on growth performance of early juvenile S. verreauxi (5.99±2.77g) that were reared either individually or communally was examined. Findings show that communally reared lobsters have greater growth performance, survival and feed intake indicating that social interaction is vital for promoting the growth of lobsters. Growth performance of individually reared lobsters was positively linked with metabolic rate providing the first evidence of a link between metabolic phenotype and growth performance of a lobster species. Metabolic phenotype was not linked to lobster growth performance in communal culture indicating that social interaction outweighed the direct link between metabolic rate and lobster growth. These results suggest social behaviour plays a dominant role in determining the growth of individuals in populations, however, the factors influencing behavioural interactions between individuals within a population remained to be determined. In Chapter 3, the effect of metabolic phenotype, body size, sex, feeding contest experience and rearing history on the early juvenile S. verreauxi social status was examined using pair-feeding contest behavioural studies. Findings from these experiments showed that larger size lobsters were likely to be more dominant over smaller lobsters. Low metabolic rate lobsters also displayed greater ability to win over high metabolic rate lobsters which may…

▼ Animal survival depends on the brain’s ability to detect the energetic state of the body and to alter behaviour in order to maintain homeostasis. Current research in the control of food consumption stresses the importance of identifying and establishing the specific roles of homeostatic neurons, which sense the body’s energetic state and elicit complex and flexible food seeking behaviours. Recent developments in optogenetics, molecular genetics, and anatomical techniques have made these investigations possible at the resolution of specific cell types and circuits. These neurons are of particular interest because they serve as key entry points to the identification of downstream circuits and reinforcement mechanisms that control feeding behaviour. This dissertation probes the role of two kinds of homeostatic neurons— agouti-related peptide (AGRP) in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) and leptin receptor (LepRb) neurons in the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA)—in the control of food intake. First, I examined the role of LepRb neurons in the LHA in feeding. Results from electrophysiological studies indicate that these neurons consist of a subpopulation of homeostatic sensing LHA γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) expressing neurons. In addition to their response to leptin, these neurons are capable of modulating their activity in response to changes in glucose levels, further substantiating their role as homeostatic sensing neurons. Behavioural studies using optogenetic activation of these neurons show that their elevated activity is capable of reducing body weight, although their role in modulating feeding remains unclear. Second, I investigated the reinforcement mechanisms employed by AGRP neurons to elicit voracious food consumption and increased willingness to work for food. Conditioned place avoidance studies under optogenetic activation of AGRP neurons reveal that their increased activity has negative valence and is avoided. In addition, imposition of elevated AGRP neuron activity in an operant task reduced instrumental food seeking with particular sensitivity under high effort requirements. Taken together, these results suggest that AGRP neurons employ a negative reinforcement teaching signal to direct action selection during food seeking and consumption. Third, I systematically analyzed the contribution of specific AGRP neuron projection subpopulations in AGRP neuron mediated evoked-feeding behaviour. Optogenetic activation studies of AGRP neuron axons in downstream projection regions indicate that several, but not all, subpopulations are capable of independently evoke food consumption. This work reveals a parallel and redundant functional circuit organization for AGRP neurons in the control of food intake. Interestingly, all AGRP neuron subpopulations examined displayed similar modulation by states of energy deficit and signals of starvation, despite their apparent divergence in function. As a whole, this dissertation extends our understanding of the role of homeostatic neurons in food consumption and uncovers previously…

▼ Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder diagnosed in childhood. It is largely accepted that ADHD is a product of gene-environment interactions and method of infant feeding has been proposed as a factor influencing the expression and/or severity of ADHD. The objectives of this study were to determine the relationship between infant feeding (i.e. formula feeding or breast feeding) and subsequent hyperactive/inattentive (H/I) behaviours and ADHD diagnosis and if the relationship between infant feeding and academic performance is moderated by H/I scale score. This study used data from the 2000/1, 2002/3, 2006/7 and 2008/9 cycles of the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY) (n= 3,895) to follow children longitudinally from the age of 0 to 1 years old to 6 to 7 years old. Infant feeding at 0 to 1 years old, and child H/I score, ADHD diagnosis and academic performance scores at 6 to 7 years old were reported by the biological mother. Multivariable logistic and linear regression were used to determine the relationship between infant feeding and H/I score, ADHD and academic performance adjusting for a range of sociodemographic, birth and home environment factors. Breastfeeding for more than 12 months was found to be significantly associated with decreased H/I scale scores in the most adjusted model (OR=0.3; 95% CI 0.2-0.8, p<0.01). Infant feeding was not associated with ADHD diagnosis and there was no moderating effect of the H/I score on the relationship between breastfeeding and academic performance. A small proportion of mothers breastfeed beyond one year in Canada and this study shows that there might be important child benefits incurred by breastfeeding for longer than 12 months.

▼ The production of lamb meat is a large and important agricultural industry in Australia. Variability and seasonality of the climate and the demand for a consistent product (in terms of weight and age) have led to an increase in the use of feedlot systems for finishing lambs. An estimated 5-20% of lambs in feedlots are prone to ‘shy-feeding’ or inappetance. Factors considered to contribute to the condition of shy-feeding include: neophobia (environment and concentrated feeds), acidosis and competition around feeding; however, little is known about the individual characteristics of these animals. The aim of this thesis was to examine the relationships between social behaviour, feeding behaviour and stress in lambs in intensive finishing systems. A preliminary study examined relationships between temperament, feeding behaviour, social interactions and cortisol concentrations in lambs in the first 2 weeks in an intensive finishing system (feedlot). Lambs in two 20-lamb feedlots (with 2 m2 floor space/animal) were studied. Prior to entry to the feedlot the lambs were subjected to a temperament test (Isolation Box Test) in which activity was measured. Weight gain, general activity, lying time, time at the feeder, number of feeding bouts, displacement at the feeder and plasma cortisol concentrations in weeks 1 and 2 in the feedlot were recorded. A parsimonious general linear model was developed to relate the logarithm of cortisol concentration to all other measurements. Cortisol was most elevated if the lamb’s activity in the feedlot (number of steps) was low (P=0.000025) and also for those lambs that fed more frequently (P=0.0010). Higher levels of activity in the temperament test were associated with higher cortisol concentrations in week 1 when the lamb was not displaced from the feeder. However there was an interaction with the number of displacements (P=0.0016), leading to little effect when a displacement occurred. A linear model could not be fitted for cortisol in week 2. A second study investigated some individual characteristics associated with shy-feeding. Forty lambs in a feedlot pen were studied in 3 cohorts (120 lambs total) over 16 months. This study focused on the behaviour of lambs in the first week in the feedlot. Lambs were provided with 2 m2 floor space per animal and 4 cm trough length each. Temperament and weights were recorded before entry to the feedlot and weights were recorded again at the end of the first week. Based on total time spent feeding over a 24-h period in week 1, lambs were categorized into two distinct groups: “Shy-feeders” (<30 min feeding, n=22) and “Feeders” (>1 hour feeding, n=98). Accumulated analysis of variance was used to compare entry weights, temperament, growth (live weight change), and feeding behaviour of each group. Most of the Shy-feeders lost weight in the first week whilst most of the Feeders gained weight, however within each grouping there was no relationship between growth and time at the feed trough despite time at the feed trough varying from 1 to 5 h…

INTRODUÇÃO: O hábito alimentar dos escolares pode ser influenciado por características sociodemográficas e do ambiente, seja escolar, doméstico oufora do lar e a valiar o consumo de alimentos do escolar em diferentes locais,pode fornecer informações sobre a qualidade dos alimentos ofertados em cada local. O Índice de Qualidade da Dieta Revisado (IQD -R) é um instrumento apropriado, pois, analisa a qualidade dos alimentos consumidos, comparando - os com as recomendações brasileiras. OBJETIVO: descrever a qualidade da dieta de escolares utilizando o IQD - R. MÉTODOS: Trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado com escolares de 7 a 10 anos de duas escolas municipais de São Paulo. Foram coletadas informações socioeconômicas, de estado nutricional e de consumo alimentar, por meio da aplicação de três recordatórios de 24h. A qualidade da dieta foi avaliada pelo método IQD-R. RESULTADOS:A média do IQD-R foi de 64,6 pontos e a maioria dos escolares apresentou dieta que necessita de modificação. Os componentes que apresentaram menores escores foram cereais integrais e sódio, e os maiores escores foram observados nos óleos, carnes, ovos e leguminosas, e cereais totais. As meninas apresentaram maior consumo de frutas e menor consumo de carnes, ovos e leguminosas, e sódio. O menor consumo de sódio esteve associado ao maior nível de escolaridade da pessoa de referência da família e maior número de refeições diárias. Escolares que consomem café da manhã possuem maior consumo de vegetais e de leite e derivados. O maior consumo de refeições em casa esteve associado com o menor consumo de gordura saturada e calorias provenientes de gordura sólida e açúcares de adição (Gord_AA), além de ser fator de proteção para uma melhor qualidade da dieta. Escolares que consumiram refeições fora do lar, apresentaram maior consumo de cereais integrais e Gord_AA. CONCLUSÃO: A análise da qualidade da dieta dos escolares mostrou que estes não consomem os alimentos e nutrientes conforme a recomendação brasileira. O maior número de refeições em casa é considerado como fator de proteção para uma melhor dieta quando comparado ao maior número de refeições fora do lar, por isto, ações de educação alimentar e nutricional devem ser direcionadas aos escolares, com intuito de reduzir o consumo de alimentos industrializados e fora do lar. Além disto, a presença do nutricionista nas unidades produtoras de alimentos e na regulamentação da produção dos alimentos industrializados, pode auxiliar na elaboração de cardápios saudáveis, em que se incluem os cereais integrais, frutas e hortaliças, utilizando-se o aproveitamento integral dos alimentos, modos de preparo com menos gordura, como as preparações cozidas, assadas e grelhadas, redução na quantidade de sal de adição e da utilização de alimentos industrializados.

▼ The objectives of this dissertation were to determine the effects of feeding time and frequency on physiological and behavioral responses to hunger and investigate the impact on sow and litter performance under normal production conditions. Series of experiments were conducted to achieve these objectives. In exp. 1 and 2, a total of N = 300 sows (TN 70; Landrance X Yorkshire, Topigs Norsvin USA, Burnsville, MN) were used for the piglets and sow performance experiments. Sows were blocked by parity and farrowing date, balanced for BW, and randomly assigned to 1 of 5 treatments in a randomized complete block design. A subsample of n = 30, n = 40, (exp. 3) and n = 30 (exp. 4) sows were used for behavior, stress physiology, and hunger experiments, respectively. Treatments include sows fed corn-soybean meal-based diet once at [0730 (Control, T1), 1130 (T2), or 1530 h (T3)], twice [half ration at 0730 and 1530 h (T4)], or thrice [one third portion at 0730, 1130, and 1530 h (T5)], with daily feed quantity kept at 1.25× maintenance energy intake (100 × (BW)0.75) kcal ME/d. Treatments were imposed from d 30 to 109 of pregnancy for the performance exp. In the physiology and behavior exp., treatments were imposed from d 30 to 60 of gestation. Results showed that sows fed 2× daily during gestation had reduced incidence of stillbirth and improved the number of piglets weaned. Feeding time to elicit maximum insulin responses are 0730 and 1130 h but not at 1530 h. Elevated sow activity might not necessary indicate activation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA). Feeding sows 2× daily reduced sows’ feed anticipatory activity, total activity, and feeding activity, and activation of the HPA axis. Consumption of 3 small meals (2311 kcal/meal) in 8 h resulted in 9.0% reduction in 23-h glucose total AUC. It is suggested that hunger in pregnant sows occurs at active ghrelin/total PYY ratio of 5.06 ± 0.20 and at a mean plasma glucose concentration of 70.37 ± 1.39 mg/dL and below. These studies provide insight to feed pregnant sows twice daily to improve their welfare and enhance pig productivity.

▼ The first objective of this study was to validate the feeding behavior measurements from a radio frequency electronic system (GrowSafe (TM) System Ltd., Airdrie, AB, Canada) and examine the software sensitivity to different parameter settings (MPS) to quantify feeding behavior traits. Data was continuously recorded 24 h per day using the GrowSafe™ system for 32 heifers over 81-d. Ten animals were randomly selected and evaluated over 6-d using time-lapse video recordings. Different parameter settings (MPS) from the electronic system (GrowSafe (TM)) used to record feeding behavior data, bunk visits (BV) frequency and BV duration, were compared with the observed (video) values. The second objective of this study was to quantify meal criterion; examine the associations between feeding behavior traits, performance, and feed efficiency; and the effects of breed type on feed efficiency (residual feed intake - RFI) and feeding behavior traits in heifers fed high-grain diets. Results from study one demonstrated that the GrowSafe (TM) system 4000E could accurately predict BV and meal data compared to observed data. The 100 s, used for the maximum duration between consecutive EID recordings to end an uninterrupted BV, was the appropriate MPS to predict BV frequency and duration, and meal frequency and duration compared to observed data using the GrowSafe (TM) 4000E system. The system’s ability to detect the animal’s presence or absence at the feed bunk was 86.4 and 99.6 percent, respectively. Results from the second study demonstrated that the meal criterion for heifers fed high-grain diets was 13.8 min. The 4 methods to calculate meal criterion demonstrated no differences in results of frequencies and durations of meal and the number of bunk visits per meal. Similar phenotypic correlations were found between the feeding behavior traits with RFI derived from the base model or with adjustments for final back fat. The adjustment of RFI to final back fat changed the RFI rank between breeds. The addition of feeding behavior traits to the RFI base model could accounted up to 40.4 percent of the variation in DMI not explained by ADG or MBW. Advisors/Committee Members: Carstens, Gordon E.

▼ The mechanisms and neurochemical pathways through which the orexigenic peptide hormone ghrelin act to regulate homeostatic feeding is fairly well documented. However, less understood are the mechanisms and brain regions that mediate ghrelin's effects on mood and complex eating behaviors. At the cellular level, little is known about the ghrelin cell's transcriptional profile, its secretory products other than ghrelin, and its relationship to other gastric endocrine cells, such as the histamine producing enterochromaffin-like cell. My doctoral research encompasses multiple aspects of the ghrelin system, from physiological assessments of the ghrelin cell to evaluations of ghrelin action on cue-potentiated feeding and stress-induced depressive-like behavior. Ghrelin has antidepressant effects, which become obvious following chronic stress. In the first part of my thesis, I found that this effect was mediated by neurogenesis. I observed that chronic stress reduces neurogenesis more severely in the ventral dentate gyrus of Ghsr-null mice, suggesting ghrelin provides a level of neuroprotection in the stress environment. Administration of anti-apoptotic P7C3-related compounds not only blocked stress-induced reductions in neurogenesis, but also minimized the severity of depressive-like behavior in mice. Focal hippocampal irradiation prevented the anti-depressant efficacy of P7C3-related compounds, indicating that P7C3 regulates mood directly through neurogenesis. In the second part of my thesis, I designed a novel protocol for studying cue-potentiated feeding behaviors in mice. Absence of ghrelin signaling in Ghsr-null mice, or administration of a ghrelin receptor antagonist in wild-type mice, disrupted the development of normal cue-food associations. Additionally, I discovered Ghsr expression in the basolateral amygdala (BLA), and BLA neuronal activation in response to a food-associated positive cue significantly correlated with amount of food intake. Thus, ghrelin signaling in the BLA may be responsible for its mediation of cue-potentiated feeding behaviors. The third part of my thesis examined the ghrelin cell transcriptome for potential secretory proteins and revealed significant expression of Rbp4, Ttr, and Nucb2, along with RBP4 protein secretion. Lastly, I characterized a novel HDC-Cre mouse model that may be advantageous in future studies to determine potential interactions between histaminergic and ghrelin signaling pathways. The full range of these discoveries advances our comprehensive understanding of ghrelin. Advisors/Committee Members: Eisch, Amelia J., Powell, Craig M., Scherer, Philipp, Zigman, Jeffrey M..

▼ Childhood obesity is an issue of great concern to health professionals in the United States. Past research has emphasized the role parenting styles (e.g., the global parenting environment) and parents? practices (e.g., specific parent behaviors) play in shaping childhood weight status. This study is the first to examine the associations of parenting style, feeding practices and children?s self-regulation of food intake in a South Asian population. Self-report data was collected from a community sample of South Asian parents with children between the ages of 3 to 9 years old (N = 54). Participants were 75% mothers and 25% fathers. Feeding practices were compared between South Asian mothers and data from a control group that was collected from an ongoing study. Survey items measured parenting style dimensions of warmth, psychological control, and behavioral control. Parents? controlling feeding practices of pressure, restriction for health and restriction for weight were also assessed. Self-regulation was measured by parent?s report of child?s external eating and food responsiveness, as well as satiety responsiveness. Results of this study revealed South Asian mothers used more pressure in feeding than Caucasian mothers, but did not use more restriction. Acculturation was not associated with parenting style dimensions or feeding practices, but was associated with external eating. The parenting style dimension of psychological control was positively correlated with restriction for health and pressure. Psychological control and restriction for health were associated with external eating, while these variables and restriction for weight were associated with food responsiveness. Regression analyses suggest that restriction for health was the best predictor for both of these variables. Restriction for weight was related to satiety responsiveness, but this variable was not significant after controlling for child weight status. The results of this study are consistent with previous research on feeding practices and self-regulation. Parenting interventions targeting child obesity should consider teaching parents to employ less controlling feeding practices, as these methods were associated with lower self-regulation ability in children.

▼ The physical structure of animals and their environment are two obvious factors that can limit what animals do. However, the behaviors of animals and the choices they make can result in animals doing things that are only a small subset of what is physically possible. I used two systems to gain insights into the role of behavior in affecting resource use by snakes. First, I studied how varying the darkness, shape, and locations of artificial branches affected where snakes chose to go. Second, I studied two species of snakes to test how diet and feeding behavior were affected by the size of prey relative to the snakes’ anatomical constraints on prey size. Variation in the environment can affect the mechanical demands of locomotion as well as influence where animals choose to go. Arboreal habitats facilitate studying path choice by animals because variable branch structure has known mechanical consequences and different branches create discrete choices. Recent studies found that arboreal snakes can use vision to select shapes and locations of destinations that mechanically facilitate bridging gaps. However, the extent to which the appearance of objects unrelated to biomechanical demands affects the choice of destinations remains poorly understood for most animal taxa including snakes. Hence, I manipulated the intensity (black, gray or white), contrast, structure, and locations of destinations to test for their combined effects on perch choice during gap bridging of brown tree snakes and boa constrictors. The results presented herein provide a striking example of how visual cues unrelated to the physical structure of surfaces, such as contrast and intensity, can bias choice and, in some cases, supersede a preference for mechanically beneficial surfaces. Snakes consume their prey whole. Consequently, variation in the anatomy of the trophic apparatus of snakes directly affects gape and limits maximal prey size. However, for the foraging ecology of snakes and other systems, scant data exist regarding how often maximal capacities are taxed in nature. Hence, I quantified: 1) maximal gape, 2) the size of prey relative to maximal gape, and 3) how the type and relative size of prey affected behavior and prey handling times for two species of natricine snakes that primarily eat soft- (Regina septemvittata) or hard-shell (Liodytes alleni) crayfish. Several of the differences between the crayfish-eating snakes including maximal gape, prey size, prey handling times and behavior resemble those between two phylogenetically distant species of homalopsid snakes that consume either hard- or soft-shell crabs. In both groups of crustacean-eating snakes, the decreased prey capture success in captivity and the rare consumption of relatively large hard-shell crustaceans in the field suggest that the ability to capture this type of prey constrains prey size more commonly than maximal gape. Regina septemvittata was superior to the other species based on new metrics of potential feeding performance that integrated snake size and gape with the… Advisors/Committee Members: Jayne, Bruce (Committee Chair).

▼ Finding and consuming food and water are among the most critical functions for an animal's survival. Food seeking (e.g., exploration and approach) and consummatory (e.g., licking, chewing, swallowing) behaviors are usually highly controlled, resulting in stable food intake, body mass, and fat stores in humans and laboratory animals. These variables are thought to be governed by homeostatic control systems that closely regulate many aspects of feeding behavior. However, the homeostatic mechanisms underlying these processes are often disrupted in humans, resulting in either hyperphagia or hypophagia. Despite many decades of investigations into the regulatory circuits of animals and humans, the neural circuits that underlie voluntary feeding are unclear. There have been considerable advances into understanding how the brain is able to broadly regulate food consumption (e.g., the role of circulating hormones on food intake and body weight). As much work has focused on hypothalamic mechanisms, relatively little is known about how other neural systems contribute to specific aspects of food seeking and consumption. The basal ganglia have been implicated in many aspects of motivated behavior including appetitive and consummatory processes. However, the precise role that basal ganglia pathways play in these motivated behaviors remain largely unknown. One reason for this is that the basal ganglia are functionally and anatomically heterogeneous, with distinct functional circuit elements being embedded within overlapping tissue. Until recently, tools permitting identification and manipulation of molecularly defined neuron populations were unavailable. The following experiments were designed to assess the role of the basal ganglia in regulating appetitive and consummatory behavior in mice. The first experiment (Chapter 2) examines the relationship between neural activity in the substantia nigra¬, a¬ major output nucleus of the basal ganglia, and an animal's motivational state. Both dopaminergic and GABAergic neurons show bursts of action potentials in response to a cue that predicts a food reward in hungry mice. The magnitude of this burst response is bidirectionally modulated by the animal's motivational state. When mice are sated prior to testing, or when no pellets can be consumed, both motivational state and bidirectional modulation of the cue response are unchanging. The second set of experiments (Chapter 3 and 4) utilizes a mouse model of hyperdopaminergia: Dopamine transporter knockout mice. These mice have persistently elevated synaptic dopamine. Consistent with a role of dopamine in motivation, hyperdopaminergic mice exhibit enhanced food seeking behavior that is dissociable from general hyperactivity. Lentiviral restoration of the dopamine transporter into either the dorsolateral striatum or the nucleus accumbens, but not the dorsomedial striatum, is sufficient to selectively reduce excessive food seeking. The dopamine transporter knockout model of hyperdopaminergia was… Advisors/Committee Members: Yin, Henry H (advisor).

A refeição familiar desempenha uma função estruturante das relações sociais, mas os convívios comensais de jovens órfãos com suas famílias podem ser afetados no contexto da orfandade pelo HIV/AIDS. Como parte de um projeto de pesquisa temático sobre Estigma e Discriminação relacionados ao HIV/AIDS, realizou-se um estudo para apreender os aspectos condicionantes das refeições familiares e caracterizar os convívios comensais de jovens órfãos pela AIDS em São Paulo. Portanto, realizou-se um estudo transversal com abordagem qualitativa e quantitativa a partir de perspectiva interdisciplinar entre antropologia da alimentação, saúde pública e ecologia cultural. Na fase qualitativa, foram utilizadas 19 entrevistas com jovens órfãos pela AIDS. As narrativas foram percorridas em busca de categorias contextuais e da sincronia de convívios espaciais e temporais para refeições. Na abordagem quantitativa, utilizou-se amostra com 276 jovens órfãos pela AIDS. Foram realizadas análises descritivas dos dados com distribuição de frequências e posteriormente foi aplicado o teste de Rao Scott. Os testes foram conduzidos em nível de significância de 5% e poder de teste de 80%. Para realização destas análises utilizou-se do programa STATA 10.0. As metodologias foram consideradas complementares e o processo de construção da análise foi desenvolvido a partir da ideia de artesanato intelectual proposta por Wright Mills (2009). Os resultados demonstraram que (1) a refeição familiar reflete a estrutura familiar; (2) a refeição atua como eixo da sincronia familiar em ritmos temporais e espaciais, e (3) as refeições refletem as mudanças nos convívios contemporâneos e os compromissos temporais com a família favorecem a adaptabilidade do jovem órfão em contexto urbano.

The family meal plays a structuring role in social relations, but commensal gatherings of young orphans and their families might be affected in the context of orphaned by HIV/AIDS. As part of a themed research project on Stigma and Discrimination Related to HIV/AIDS, this study was conducted in order to understand all conditioning aspects of family meals and to characterize commensal gatherings of young people orphaned by AIDS in São Paulo. For such, we performed a crosssectional study with qualitative and quantitative approaches from an interdisciplinary perspective between food anthropology, public health and cultural ecology. In the qualitative phase, interviews with 19 young people orphaned by AIDS were used. The narratives were covered in search of contextual categories and synchrony of spatial and temporal gatherings for meals. The quantitative approach was used to sample 276 young people orphaned by AIDS. Descriptive analyzes of the data with frequency distribution were performed and then the Rao Scott test used. Tests were conducted at a significance level of 5% and power of 80%. For these analyzes we used the STATA 10.0 software. The methodologies were complementary and stemmed from the idea of intellectual craft proposed by Wright Mills (2009). The results showed that…
