Characterizing demand for domestic versus imported chicken in developing countries: the case of Haiti and Cameroon [PDF]

[Paper in French] Since the beginning of 2000s, imports of frozen pieces of chicken from the European Union or Brazil have considerably increased in several African and Caribbean developing countries, competing with local chicken meat.

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Evolution of urban chicken consumption in Southern countries: a comparison between Haiti and Cameroon [PDF]

Since the beginning of 2000s, in order to let poor people accede to meat consumption, several developing countries have opened their domestic chicken market to foreign imports, by reducing import tariffs.

Controlling Listeria monocytogenes on ready-to-eat poultry products using carboxymethylcellulose film coatings containing green tea extract (GTE) combined with nisin and malic acid [PDF]

, 2007
The ability to control Listeria monocytogenes on ready-to-eat poultry products using carboxymethyl-cellulose film coatings containing green tea extract (GTE), malic acid (M), nisin (N), and their combinations was evaluated. The antimicrobials (GTE: 1.0%,

Microglial dynamics and ferroptosis induction in human iPSC‐derived neuron–astrocyte–microglia tri‐cultures

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A tri‐culture of iPSC‐derived neurons, astrocytes, and microglia treated with ferroptosis inducers as an Induced ferroptosis model was characterized by scRNA‐seq, cell survival, and cytokine release assays. This analysis revealed diverse microglial transcriptomic changes, indicating that the system captures key aspects of the complex cellular ...

Epididymal transcriptional networks underlying sperm motility differences in Chinese indigenous chicken breeds

BMC Genomics
This study characterized phenotypic distinctions between high- and low-motility sperm from 40-week-old Yufen1 roosters and the alteration in epididymal transcriptional networks underlighting sperm motility.

Whole-transcriptome sequencing reveals a melanin-related ceRNA regulatory network in the breast muscle of Xichuan black-bone chicken

Poultry Science
: The economic losses incurred due to reduced muscle pigmentation highlight the crucial role of melanin-based coloration in the meat of black-bone chickens. Melanogenesis in the breast muscle of black-bone chickens is currently poorly understood in terms

Embryonic transcriptome and proteome analyses on hepatic lipid metabolism in chickens divergently selected for abdominal fat content

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background In avian species, liver is the main site of de novo lipogenesis, and hepatic lipid metabolism relates closely to adipose fat deposition. Using our fat and lean chicken lines of striking differences in abdominal fat content, post-hatch lipid ...

Multi‐omics and low‐input proteomics profiling reveals dynamic regulation driving pluripotency initiation in early mouse embryos

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Mouse pre‐implantation development involves a transition from totipotency to pluripotency. Integrating transcriptomics, epigenetic profiling, low‐input proteomics and functional assays, we show that eight‐cell embryos retain residual totipotency features, whereas cytoskeletal remodeling regulated by the ubiquitin‐proteasome system drives progression ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing uncovers cellular heterogeneity of granulosa cells and provides a signature for follicular development in chicken

Poultry Science
Functional differentiation of the granulosa cell (GC) layer plays an essential role in follicular development and oocyte maturation in birds. However, despite the importance of GCs, heterogeneity within the granulosa layer across poultry species remains ...
