Metastatic Leiomyosarcoma Involving Bone and Kidney in an Adult Budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus) [PDF]
A 2‐year‐old male budgerigar presents with swelling of the medial left leg. Soft tissue neoplasia is suspected after empirical treatment fails. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry (α‐SMA and desmin positivity, vimentin negativity) confirm leiomyosarcoma, with metastasis to bone and kidneys. This case documents uncommon metastatic spread in an avian

c‐Rel–dependent Chk2 signaling regulates the DNA damage response limiting hepatocarcinogenesis
In response to genotoxic injury, c‐Rel upregulates ATM‐Chk2‐p53 pathway DNA damage proteins to limiting hepatocarcinogenesis. Abstract Background and Aims Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer‐related death. The NF‐κB transcription factor family subunit c‐Rel is typically protumorigenic; however, it has recently been reported as a

Biomarkers for monitoring intestinal health in poultry: present status and future perspectives
Intestinal health is determined by host (immunity, mucosal barrier), nutritional, microbial and environmental factors. Deficiencies in intestinal health are associated with shifts in the composition of the intestinal microbiome (dysbiosis), leakage of ...
