It has been established that daily inclusion of modified Alaska pollack protein into the rat ration as a 10% substitute of casein does not induce any changes in the body. A long term (during 12 months) feeding of rats with the rations containing 50 and 100% of Alaska pollack protein, as casein substitute, results in significant changes in the histological structure of the kidneys and liver. The data of electron microscopy enabled the authors to make a conclusion on the presence of a toxic factor in the protein product studied.

Neuromuscular properties decline with ageing and low-level physical activities. Alaska pollack protein (APP) is reportedly effective for improving skeletal muscular functions, even if the amount is small and exercise is not conducted. However, it is unclear whether APP intake without an exercise program affects neuromuscular dysfunction in community-dwelling adults conducting normal, everyday activities.

Alaska pollack protein (APP), has been reported as a protein source that can enhance muscle hypertrophy more than other protein sources in animal studies. This study aimed to examine the effects of APP ingestion on muscle quantity and quality in young adults. Fifty-five young college students were assigned to two groups: APP and placebo (whey protein: WP) groups, and instructed to ingest 4.

7-MEGA is a food product made from purified Alaska pollack fish oil containing palmitoleic acid (16:1), commonly referred to as omega-7. We sought to quantitatively evaluate whether this substance inhibits skin aging. A total of 101 middle-aged females were randomly allocated to the intervention ( = 50) or placebo group ( = 51).

Background: Despite the significant burden posed by COPD to health care systems, there is a lack of up-to-date information quantifying the general COPD burden, costs, and long-term projections to various stakeholders in the United States.
Research Question: What are the updated state-specific and nationwide estimates of the COPD disease burden and direct costs in 2019, along with projections of COPD-attributable medical costs through 2029?
Study Design And Methods: A cross-sectional, retrospective study design using the 2016 to 2019 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, 2019 American Community Survey, and 2019 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data was applied to generate COPD-attributable expenditure estimates. Cost projections for the years 2020 to 2029 were based on 2017 national population projections reported by the US Census Bureau, and all costs were adjusted to 2019 US dollars.

Collagen hydrolysate were extracted from Alaska pollock skin using enzymatic (EAE), ultrasound (UAE), or combination of enzymatic and ultrasound (EAE+UAE) treatment. Control (C) was not treated with enzymatic or ultrasound. The extracts from C, EAE, UAE, and EAE+UAE were fractionated with ≤3, 3-10, 10-30, and ≥30 kDa.
