The long-term impact of obesity in pregnancy on offspring hypothalamic feeding pathways

Royal Society Open Science
An accumulating body of evidence shows that offspring exposure to maternal obesity in the peri-natal period causes an increased risk to develop obesity later in life.

Gene Expression of Feed Intake-Regulating Peptides in the Gut–Brain Axis of Laying Hens Housed Under Two Different Egg Production Systems

Animals
Intensive farming methods have improved productivity, but public concerns have arisen regarding the welfare of production animals, particularly laying hens, and consumers demand higher animal welfare standards in all animal production systems. This study

Von In‐Silico bis In‐Cerebro – Entwicklung des Orexinrezeptor Antagonisten „Photorexant“ zur Photomodulation In Vitro und im Gehirn der Maus

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Durch einen strukturbasierten Designansatz wurden photoschaltbare Derivate des von der FDA zugelassenen Arzneistoffes Suvorexant entwickelt, gedockt, synthetisiert und pharmakologisch an den Orexin‐1‐ und 2‐Rezeptoren (OX1R und OX2R) charakterisiert.

Amygdala–hypothalamus–brainstem circuits underlying cardiovascular responses associated with the limits of high-intensity endurance exercise

Frontiers in Physiology
In athletic competitions, athletes continually challenge the limits of human performance. Exercise limitation refers to a state in which fatigue accumulates during prolonged activity, preventing the maintenance of the required power output despite ...

The role of dopamine release and D2 dopamine receptor in GHRH and somatostatin cells in controlling growth hormone secretion

Frontiers in Endocrinology
IntroductionPituitary growth hormone (GH) secretion is primarily controlled by GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) and somatostatin (SST), peptides produced by hypothalamic neurons. Evidence indicates that dopamine also modulates GH secretion, potentially via D2

In Silico to In Cerebro—Development of the Orexin Receptor Antagonist “Photorexant” for Photomodulation In Vitro and in Mouse Brains

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Following a structure‐based design approach, photoswitchable derivatives of the FDA‐approved drug suvorexant were designed, docked, synthesized, and characterized pharmacologically at the orexin 1 and 2 receptors (OX1R and OX2R). Optimized “photorexant” showed up to an 11‐fold difference in IC50 between photoisomers, enabled dynamic and reversible ...

Neuroanatomical diversity in Teleocichla with new volumetric and histological insights into the encephalon of Teleocichla monogramma Kullander 1988

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Teleocichla comprises small cichlids that inhabit the rapid streams of Amazonian rivers; however, there has been limited research on their encephalon morphology. This study examined the neuroanatomy of four species, focusing on volumetric measurements of their encephalon subregions, and providing a histological description of the encephalon of

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Effect of Cyclic Heat Exposure on the Growth Performance and Metabolism of Broilers Fed Palm Kernel Meal

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The aim of our study is to evaluate the interaction between HS and the incorporation of PKM in broiler chicken diets, as well as its effect on growth performance and metabolism. Based on the results obtained, PKM supplementation failed to mitigate the adverse effects of heat stress in broiler chickens. ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the

Multivariate Analysis of Hematological Stress Biomarkers and Welfare Domains in Organic and Intensive Pig Farming in Italy: A Pilot Study

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Intensive or organic farming systems may expose pigs to management or environmental challenges. Our preliminary results concluded that organic farming might enhance adaptive immune function, showing that improvements in welfare can translate into measurable immunological benefits, based on the correlation between welfare assessment and physiological ...
