On farm organic dairy sheep and goat breeding in Germany [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In the period from 1992 to 1998 the fat and protein yield of both flocks could be increased. A specific breeding strategy had an important contribution to the increase but the environmental impacts on animal productivity is enormous (e.g.

PINK1 functions in mitophagy and mitochondrial homeostasis during mice oocyte maturation

open access: yesCell & Bioscience
Background As a serine/threonine kinase, PINK1 (PTEN-induced putative kinase 1) is widely expressed in mammalian tissues and cells, especially in the female reproductive system. However, its role in meiotic oocytes remains obscure.

IGF2 knockout reduces but does not abolish osteosarcoma growth in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To test whether endogenous IGF2 promotes osteosarcoma growth, IGF2 was knocked out in Saos2 cells via CRISPR‐Cas9. KO cells showed reduced proliferation in vitro, and knockout xenografts in mice reached only ~25% of wild‐type tumor volume. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is implicated in osteosarcoma, but direct functional evidence of its role is ...

Relevance of test information in horse breeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The aims of this study were 1) to determine the role of test results of young horses in selection for sport performance, 2) to assess the genetic diversity of a closed horse breed and 3) the consequences of inbreeding for male reproduction.

TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 attenuates pulmonary fibroblast activation by suppressing mTOR and restoring autophagic flux

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TGF‐β1 stimulation downregulates lysosomal channel TRPML1 in pulmonary fibroblasts. The TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 suppressed fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast activation and collagen production. Mechanistically, ML‐SA5 inhibited mTOR phosphorylation, restored autophagic flux, and its effects were enhanced by rapamycin (mTOR inhibitor) and reversed by MHY1485 ...

A pilot multi-omics study reveals genetic mechanisms regulating milk component traits in dairy cattle

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Milk protein percentage (PP) and fat percentage (FP) are important indicators for measuring milk quality, but only a few causative genes such as DGAT1, GHR, and ABCG2, have been identified, indicating substantial potential for further exploration.
