Abstract
The purpose of this research was to examine hindlimb blood flow and oxygen supply in the late-gestation fetal lamb under normal and pathophysiological conditions. Although the carcass, or non-visceral tissue, accounts for a large proportion of fetal weight and oxygen demand, it has received little research attention. Because the hindlimb is composed of skin, bone, and skeletal muscle, it is representative of the carcass

Abstract
Epidemiological studies have shown that cholesterol is a major risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. Since the atherosclerotic plaque develops over a long period interventions early in life may be of some benefit. In addition, it has been shown that the enzymes involved in cholesterol metabolism can be manipulated in early life. Therefore, studies of the developmental patterns of the key enzymes in cholesterol metabolism are of great importance. Acyl coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) is the primary enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of free cholesterol to cholesterol esters in cells.
