Occlusal Stimuli Influence on the Expression of IGF-1 and the IGF-1 Receptor in the Rat Periodontal Ligament

The Angle Orthodontist, 2008
To test the hypothesis that hypofunction/recovered occlusal function has no effect on the changes in insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and IGF-1 receptor expressions and cell proliferation of periodontal ligament (PDL) cells.To produce occlusal hypofunction, the appliances were attached to the rats' maxillary and mandibular incisors.

Effects of progesterone on serum levels of IGF-1 and on femur IGF-1 mRNA in ovariectomized rats

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 1996
Abstract Local and systemic insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) may be involved in the regulation of bone formation by sex hormones. The present studies describe the in vivo effects of estradiol, progesterone, or both on IGF-1 mRNA abundance in bone, serum IGF-1 levels, and bone formation. Rats were sham-operated (SHAM) or ovariectomized (

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.

Counteracting sarcopenia: the role of IGF-1 isoforms

Aging, 2019
Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass and strength, represents one of the main causes of impaired physical performance and reduced mobility. Thus, understanding the pathogenetic mechanisms of muscle wasting associated with aging has been the objective of numerous studies and represents an important first step for the development of ...

Comparative Meta‐Analysis of Antimicrobial Peptides in Aquatic and Terrestrial Livestock Species

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
A global meta‐analysis of 58 studies (926 effect sizes and 29 species across five taxa) revealed that dietary antimicrobial peptides generally improve growth performance, blood metabolites, and immune responses. The greatest benefits were observed in omnivorous livestock, such as pigs and chickens. Dose‐duration effects were evident. An optimal outcome

Follicle Stimulating Hormone in Cattle Breeding: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Scope

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
FSH is crucial in cattle reproduction, with exogenous administration enhancing breeding and embryo production. Recombinant FSH offers advantages over pituitary‐extracted variants, including fewer injections, reduced stress, and safer production. These innovations improve breeding efficiency, optimize reproductive outcomes, and contribute to sustainable

New insights into IGF-1 signaling in the heart

Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2014
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) signaling regulates contractility, metabolism, hypertrophy, autophagy, senescence, and apoptosis in the heart. IGF-1 deficiency is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, whereas cardiac activation of IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) protects from the detrimental effects of a high-fat diet and myocardial

Enhancing Meat Quality Through Dietary Fiber: Insights Into the Gut Microbiota‐Derived Short‐Chain Fatty Acids‐Muscle Axis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of

Dual Action of Dipyridamole in Experimental Rheumatoid Arthritis: Suppression of Joint Inflammation and Upregulation of Muscle Anabolism via Adenosine and AMPK Pathways

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid sarcopenia, characterized by the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, is a frequent comorbidity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), linked to prolonged, severe systemic inflammation. Purinergic signaling (adenosine, AMP, and ATP) plays a crucial role in inflammation, myogenesis, and muscle hypertrophy.
