Involvement of histamine in suckling-induced release of oxytocin, prolactin and adrenocorticotropin in lactating rats [PDF]
, 1996 We have previously shown that histaminergic neurons participate in mediation of the prolactin (PRL), adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and oxytocin responses to physiological stimuli such as stress and dehydration.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lactational lactoferrin deficiency exerts lasting effects on epididymal adipose tissue development from lactation into adulthood: it impairs adipocyte hyperplasia and induces pathological hypertrophy, resulting in lower body weight yet exacerbated metabolic dysfunction under a high‐fat diet in adulthood.

Alternative farrowing systems: design criteria for farrowing systems based on the biological needs of sows and piglets [PDF]
, 2010 The construction of a suitable farrowing environment is a continuing dilemma: the piglet's needs must be matched with those of the sow and the farmer during the main phases that constitute farrowing: nest building, parturition and lactation. Difficulties

Effect of switching sows' positions during lactation on suckling behaviour and performance of co-mingling piglets [PDF]
, 2021 Under natural conditions, piglets have the opportunity to interact with non-littermates before weaning. Nevertheless, in intensive production systems, piglets only have contact with penmates during lactation.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Despite the distinctly different shapes of their tongues, the tongue gross anatomy of Saimaa ringed seal closely resembled that of Baltic ringed seal. There were no differences in the extrinsic and intrinsic tongue muscles or their associated vascularization and innervation between Saimaa and Baltic ringed seals.

Simplified methods for obtaining purified oocysts from mice and for growing Cryptosporidium parvum in vitro [PDF]
, 1996 Seven- to 8-day-old Arc/Swiss mice were infected with 100,000-120,000 Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts. At 8 days postinfection (PI) the jejunum, ileum, cecum, colon, and rectum were removed.

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Activo Liquid and Halquinol inhibit Salmonella and Escherichia coli in culture media. Activo Liquid exhibits bactericidal action, whereas HA is bacteriostatic, and their combination results in positive or indifferent interactions. This combination effectively inhibits E. coli throughout digestion simulation, thus reducing the required concentrations of
