Slaughtering of entire male pigs seen from the slaughterhouse perspective

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
AbstractSeveral challenges need to be taken into account before a full transition to slaughtering entire male pigs. To optimize welfare, entire male pigs should spend as short a time as possible in the pick-up facilities at the farm. At the slaughterhouse, there is no need to control the ratio between genders in the pens, as this has only minor effects

Quantitative proteomics identifies clusterin as a novel biomarker for atherosclerosis

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This schematic illustrates the proposed mechanism. In advanced atherosclerotic lesions, upregulated CLU on the cell surface activates low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor‐related protein 1 (LRP1). This interaction triggers the phosphorylation and activation of AKT.
