Chicken cecal microbiota reduces abdominal fat deposition by regulating fat metabolism

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2023
Cecal microbiota plays an essential role in chicken health. However, its contribution to fat metabolism, particularly in abdominal fat deposition, which is a severe problem in the poultry industry, is still unclear.

Effect of host genetics and gut microbiome on fat deposition traits in pigs

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Fat deposition affects meat quality, flavor, and production in pigs. Fat deposition is influenced by both genetics and environment. Symbiotic microbe with the host is an important environmental factor to influence fat deposition.

Leptin Promotes White Adipocyte Browning by Inhibiting the Hh Signaling Pathway

Cells, 2019
Leptin is an important secretory protein that regulates the body’s intake and energy consumption, and the functions of the Hh signaling pathway related to white adipocyte browning are controversial. It has been reported that leptin plays a critical

Identification of porcine fast/slow myogenic exosomes and their regulatory effects on lipid accumulation in intramuscular adipocytes

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology
Background Pork quality is affected by the type of muscle fibers, which is closely related to meat color, tenderness and juiciness. Exosomes are tiny vesicles with a diameter of approximately 30–150 nm that are secreted by cells and taken up by recipient

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Specific muscle targeted delivery of miR-130a loaded lipid nanoparticles: a novel approach to inhibit lipid accumulation in skeletal muscle and obesity

Journal of Nanobiotechnology
Background Skeletal muscle lipid deposition is a key manifestation of obesity, often accompanied by decreased exercise capacity and muscle atrophy. Skeletal muscle as the largest organ in the body, makes it challenges for designing targeted drug delivery
