Chicken consists of a collection of 38 gay poems written and illustrated by Seattle poet Dennis Kelly. Several kinds of gay poems are introduced here, all centered on the theme of young gay love. The author has already published Gay Sunshine & Fag Rag, and is working on a long gay epic called Cantos Northwest, whose ten first poems can also be

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

ANKRD9 negatively regulates chicken myogenesis through ubiquitin-mediated regulation of IMPDH2
Skeletal muscle development is regulated by transcriptional and post-translational mechanisms. While ankyrin repeat proteins participate in post-translational modifications, their role in myogenesis remains unclear.

“Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” For all its innocence, this is a question which, as this paper will show, obliges one to think deeply about the terms in which one ultimately seeks to explain biological systems. “A hen is only the egg’s way of making another egg”, in Butler’s (1878)1 apt phrase, sums up the view that organisms can most ...

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,

Tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 (TFPI2) plays a key role in female reproduction. However, its expression and function in chickens are still unclear. In this study, RNA-seq was performed on ovarian tissues from chickens aged 30 and 15 weeks to identify ...

The dFoCC pipeline starts with observed DED and resting‐state coordinates, which are then used to generate a library of triggered states. Correlation analysis of the calculated DED features of each candidate vs observed DED permits quantitative evaluation of candidate structural quality.

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 ...

Progress from Chicken Genetics to the Chicken Genome
The chicken has a proud history, both in genetic research and as a source of food. Here we attempt to provide an overview of past contributions of the chicken in both arenas and to link those contributions to the near future from a genetic perspective. Companion articles will discuss current poultry genetics research in greater detail.
