Tannic Acid Mitigates Monosodium Glutamate‐Induced Cortical Damage by Modulating Synaptic and Calcium‐Related Gene and Protein Expression

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurotoxicity induced by excessive glutamatergic signaling is associated with synaptic dysfunction, calcium imbalance, and oxidative stress, which are key molecular events implicated in several neurodegenerative conditions. Monosodium glutamate (MSG), a common flavor enhancer, may exert neurotoxic effects, particularly on synaptic integrity ...

VGF changes during the estrous cycle: a novel endocrine role for TLQP peptides? [PDF]

, 2014
Although the VGF derived peptide TLQP-21 stimulates gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and gonadotropin secretion, available data on VGF peptides and reproduction are limited.

Immunological and periodontal benefits of prebiotic polydextrose in rats with induced periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Prebiotic therapy is a promising approach for managing periodontitis due to its potential benefits in modulating the microbiome and the immune response. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the prebiotic (PREB) polydextrose (PDX) on the development of experimental periodontitis (EP) in rats.

The mating behavior and reproduction performance in a multi-sire mating system for pigs [PDF]

, 2008
An important aim of organic animal production is to allow natural animal behaviour. Regarding reproduction techniques, artificial insemination is permitted but natural mating is preferred.

Enhanced at puberty 1 (EAP1) is a new transcriptional regulator of the female neuroendocrine reproductive axis [PDF]

, 2007
The initiation of mammalian puberty and the maintenance of female reproductive cycles are events controlled by hypothalamic neurons that secrete the decapeptide gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH).

Unveiling human–wildlife interactions in the context of livestock grazing abandonment and the return of large carnivores, ungulates and vultures: A stakeholder perspective

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

Influence of estrus on dry matter intake, water intake and BW of dairy cows

Animal, 2014
The objectives of this study were to analyze whether dry matter intake (DMI), water intake (WI) and BW were influenced by estrus. A second objective was to determine whether correlations exist among these traits in non-estrous days.

Evaluation of Potential Hormonal Activities of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ashwagandha is a widely used herb in traditional medicine systems, particularly Ayurveda. Despite its extensive tradition, growing concerns regarding its potential endocrinological effects have prompted scientific scrutiny. This review systematically evaluates the current preclinical, clinical, and case study evidence concerning AS's effects ...
