The Effect of Alpha-Hydroxycholecalciferol and Phytase on the Performance, Carcass Characteristics, Blood Factors, and Expression of Vdr and Cabp-D28k Genes in Broiler Chickens [PDF]
We evaluated the effect of alpha-hydroxycholecalciferol (1α-OH-D3) and phytase supplementation on the performance, carcass characteristics, blood factors, and the expression of vitamin D receptors (VDR) and Calbindin 28k (CaBP-D28k) genes in broiler ...

Dietary non-phytate phosphorus and phytase interaction affects growth performance, mineral transportation and metabolism in broiler chickens [PDF]
The interaction effects of dietary non-phytate phosphorus (NPP) and phytase on growth performance, mineral metabolism, and gene expressions of mineral transporters in broilers duodenum and kidney (0-3 weeks) were studied. The levels of NPP (0.45 %, 0.35 %

Prolonged scotophase within a 24 hour light regime improves eggshell quality by enhancing calcium deposition in laying hens [PDF]
: Calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) transporters are responsible for their absorption and transport in small intestine and kidney, contributing to eggshell formation. The light-dark cycle is a primary cue in the reproduction of laying hen.

MAPK signaling pathway participates in the regulation of intestinal phosphorus and calcium absorption in broiler chickens via 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [PDF]
: Four experiments were performed to investigate the role of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway in intestinal absorption of phosphorus (P) and calcium (Ca) in broiler chickens.

Effects of 25(OH)VD3 on Growth Performance, Pork Quality and Calcium Deposit in Growing-Finishing Pigs [PDF]
The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of 25(OH)VD3 with different inclusion levels of 0, 25, 50 and 75 μg/kg in the diet on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, bone properties and pork quality in growing-finishing pigs.

The temporal gene expression profiles of calcium and phosphorus transporters in Hy-Line Brown layers [PDF]
: Calcium and phosphorus homeostasis is crucial for the performance and bone health of laying hens. The calcium and phosphorus transporters play an important role in calcium and phosphorus absorption, reabsorption, and excretion. In the present study, Hy-

Mucosal expression of Ca and P transporters and claudins in the small intestine of broilers is altered by dietary Ca:P in a limestone particle size dependent manner. [PDF]
High calcium (Ca) intake and fine limestone reduces precaecal phosphorus (P) absorption independently of P solubility in broilers. This study aimed to determine whether dietary total Ca: total P ratio (Ca:P) and limestone particle size (LPS) affect gene ...

Reduced Expression of Magnesium Transport Proteins in the Distal Convoluted Tubule of Clcnkb-Deficient Mice May Explain Urinary Magnesium Wasting in Classical Bartter Syndrome. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim The kidney thick ascending limb (TAL) plays a key role in the transport of sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Bartter syndrome is a hypokalemic, salt‐losing tubulopathy caused by impaired TAL function. Pathogenic variants in SLC12A1 or KCNJ1 cause antenatal Bartter syndrome, and variants in CLCNKB result in classical ...

Endometrial Expression of Calbindin (CaBP)-d28k but Not CaBP-d9k in Primates Implies Evolutionary Changes and Functional Redundancy of Calbindins at Implantation [PDF]
Abstract The endometrium is hostile to embryo implantation except during the ‘window of receptivity’. A change in endometrial gene expression is required for the development of receptivity. Calbindin-d9k (CaBP-d9k) and calbindin-d28k (CaBP-d28k) are proteins possessing EF-hand motifs which have high affinity for Ca2+ ions. Previously,
