Comparative Meta‐Analysis of Antimicrobial Peptides in Aquatic and Terrestrial Livestock Species

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
A global meta‐analysis of 58 studies (926 effect sizes and 29 species across five taxa) revealed that dietary antimicrobial peptides generally improve growth performance, blood metabolites, and immune responses. The greatest benefits were observed in omnivorous livestock, such as pigs and chickens. Dose‐duration effects were evident. An optimal outcome

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...

Rumen Mycobiome Thiamine Metabolism Contributes to Subacute Rumen Acidosis Tolerance in Goats Through Enhancing Epithelial Cell Proliferation via IGFBP2/IGF1 Axis Activation

Exploration, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the mechanism underlying the differences between SARA‐susceptible and SARA‐tolerant dairy goats fed a high‐concentrate diet. SARA‐susceptible goats (HCS) exhibit low rumen pH and metabolic decline, characterized by epithelial inflammation.
