BCG vaccination potentiates oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal myeloid‐derived suppressor cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BCG vaccination enhances oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal MDSCs, impairing their immunosuppressive function. It upregulates electron transport chain genes and mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP and oxygen consumption. Pharmacological OXPHOS inhibition partially restores suppressive capacity, confirming causality.

Animal welfare with Chinese characteristics: Chinese poultry producers' perceptions of, and attitudes towards, animal welfare.

PLoS ONE
China's poultry industry faces challenges in adopting and sustaining cage-free systems for poultry production. Effective interventions are crucial to support producers transitioning from cages to alternative systems or maintaining cage-free systems to ...

The Role of Housing Environment and Dietary Protein Source on the Gut Microbiota of Chicken

, 2019
The gut microbiota of chicken has received much attention due to its importance for bird health, food safety, and performance. In the United States, the impending transition to cage-free housing environments has raised many questions about its ...

MARK4 enhances stress granule formation under oxidative stress and increases tau accumulation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
MARK4 (red dots) localizes to stress granules (orange dots) and promotes their formation under oxidative stress by modulating TIA1 (blue dots). MARK4 and TIA1 synergistically increase tau (purple) accumulation, and the reduction of the TIA1 ortholog suppresses neurodegeneration in a fly model.

Novel approach for monitoring of PM10 concentration in cage-free laying hen houses

Computers and Electronics in Agriculture
This study presents a novel approach for monitoring PM10 concentrations in cage-free laying hen houses using a light-scattering method combined with intermittent sampling. Traditional methods are either unsuitable or labor-intensive for long-term use.

Beta1 subunits enable fentanyl‐induced BK channel activation and opioid regulation of cerebral artery diameter

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
During the current opioid crisis, the majority of overdose deaths are attributed to ultra‐potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. While fentanyl exerts its action via opioid receptors, we propose that potassium channels in the brain blood vessels may also sense fentanyl.

U.S. Consumer Preferences for Cage‐Free Eggs and Hen Housing Policies

Agribusiness
ABSTRACTFarm animal welfare (FAW) continues to be a divisive issue in the egg industry. In the United States, 10 states and most major retailers have implemented policies or voluntary pledges to transition to 100% cage‐free egg sales. We use best‐worst scaling and discrete choice experiments to evaluate U.S.

Assessing environmental control strategies in cage-free aviary housing systems: Egg production analysis and Random Forest modeling

Computers and Electronics in Agriculture, 2022
Since 1990, worldwide egg production has increased on average 2.8% per year. This increase has drawn the attention of animal welfare advocates. In Canada, new challenges have emerged, among them: increased awareness in animal welfare and environmental footprint and a shift to cage-free egg production systems (CFSs).
