Opioid System and Leucine Interaction in the Regulation of Feed Intake in Broiler Chickens [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary and Comparative Biomedical Research
The opioidergic system plays a critical role in feed intake, among other physiological functions. This study investigated the potential effects of the opioidergic system, leucine and its interaction with the central regulation of feed intake in broilers.

A procedure to quantify the feed intake response of growing pigs to perturbations

open access: yesAnimal, 2020
Improving robustness of farm animals is one of the goals in breeding programmes. However, robustness is a complex trait and not measurable directly. The objective of this study was to quantify and characterize (elements of) robustness in growing pigs ...

Organic versus conventional dairy farming – studies from the Öjebyn Project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This report was presented at the UK Organic Research 2002 Conference. A study (the Öjebyn Project) was conducted to determine differences between organic and conventional dairy farming systems. Comparisons of feed intake, milk production, live weight (LW)

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Effect of starch level and roughage intake on animal perfomance, rumen wall characteristics and liver abscesses in intensively fed Frisian bulls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Organic dairy cows in Denmark has a higher frequency of liver abscesses, which is probably due to higher starch levels in the feed rations to high yielding cows compaired to conventional cows. Following abstract is based on experiments on young bulls and

Deciphering transcriptional plasticity in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma reveals alterations in sensory neuron innervation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pancreatic sensory neurons innervating healthy and PDAC tissue were retrogradely labeled and profiled by single‐cell RNA sequencing. Tumor‐associated innervation showed a dominant neurofilament‐positive subtype, altered mitochondrial gene signatures, and reduced non‐peptidergic neurons.

Effects of dietary carbohydrate/lipid ratios on growth, body composition, and nutrient utilization of hybrid catfish (Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum x Leiarius marmoratus)

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Ciencias Pecuarias
Background: farming of hybrid catfish is relatively recent in Brazil; consequently, it is necessary to develop practical diet formulations for this fish.

Feed intake in Atlantic salmon fed with or without surface spreading of feed

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2020
In intensive salmon farming, it is common practice to spread the feed over a large surface area, assuming that spreading of the feed increases feed intake in the fish.

Fluid balance and metabolic response in athletic horses fed forage diets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Concentrate diets are related to health problems in athletic horses and high-energy forage diets could be an alternative. Forage feeding may alter substrate and hindgut fluid availability which could be beneficial during feed deprivation and dehydration.
