Effects of Interactions between Feeding Patterns and the Gut Microbiota on Pig Reproductive Performance

Animals
The feeding mode is an important factor affecting the reproductive performance of pigs. The composition and expression of the intestinal microbiota are closely related to the physiological and biochemical indicators of animals.

Identification of candidate genes that specifically regulate subcutaneous and intramuscular fat deposition using transcriptomic and proteomic profiles in Dingyuan pigs

Scientific Reports, 2022
Subcutaneous fat and intramuscular fat (IMF) deposition are closely related to meat production and pork quality. Dingyuan pig, as a native pig breed in China, low selection leads to obvious genetic and phenotypic differences in the population ...

Ethnic Differences in Body Fat Deposition and Liver Fat Content in Two UK-Based Cohorts [PDF]

, 2020
Objective Differences in the content and distribution of body fat and ectopic lipids may be responsible for ethnic variations in metabolic disease susceptibility. The aim of this study was to examine the ethnic distribution of body fat in two separate UK-

Unraveling the epigenetic code in cancer cell–tumor microenvironment crosstalk

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Epigenetic regulation is a key driver of cancer development and progression. Diverse epigenetic alterations in cancer cells and components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) orchestrate their communication through multiple mechanisms. We discuss how the epigenetic code coordinates bidirectional cancer cell–TME crosstalk to promote cancer progression ...

Whole-genome resequencing reveals positive selection and introgression signatures and genetic loci associated with early puberty traits in Chinese indigenous pigs

Genetics Selection Evolution
Background The genetic basis of the phenotypic diversity of pigs is regulated by variants across the genome, especially the trait of early puberty, which is a crucial trait for enhancing the reproductive ability of pigs and the economy of the pig ...

Integrated multi-omics analysis reveals component differences and their regulatory mechanisms of adipose tissue as lard raw material between Bamei and Large White pigs

Food Science and Human Wellness
Bamei pigs, an indigenous Chinese breed, yield meat with a delectable flavor and boast higher carcass fat content compared to commercial breeds, making them a rich food source for humans.

One size does not fit all: An in vitro evaluation of the effects of bezafibrate and medroxyprogesterone acetate on human SH‐SY5Y and U‐87 MG cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Drugs previously repurposed to target blood cancers reduced neuroblastoma and glioblastoma cell growth and viability. However, their levels of anticancer activity were different and their clinical application may be problematic due to side effects at effective doses.

Lkb1 controls brown adipose tissue growth and thermogenesis by regulating the intracellular localization of CRTC3

Nature Communications, 2016
The kinase Lkb1 is expressed in various metabolic tissues and is known to regulate cellular and systemic energy homeostasis. Here, the authors delete Lkb1 specifically in mature adipocytes of mice to show that Lkb1 regulates brown adipose tissue ...
