Unravelling the Genetic Mechanisms of Litter Traits in a Maternal Line of Pigs

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reproductive traits related to litter size are the main indicators of reproductive efficiency in pig production and are continuously evaluated for the selection of maternal lines. Several environmental and genetic factors are involved with the development of these traits.

Developmental stage ordering yields greater cranial mineralization sequence resolution than embryo size or days since oviposition: A case study using the gekkotan Eublepharis macularius (Blyth, 1854)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We employ a set of leopard gecko embryos for which size, day of development, and developmental stage are known to assess which timetable accords with the greatest resolution of cranial mineralization events. Developmental staging yielded the best outcome. Abstract Mineralization sequences of cranial elements (often referred to as ossification sequences)

Long-term strict raw food diet is associated with favourable plasma b-carotene and low plasma lycopene concentrations in Germans [PDF]

, 2008
Dietary carotenoids are associated with a reduced risk of chronic diseases. Raw food diets are predominantly plant-based diets that are practised with the intention of preventing chronic diseases by virtue of their high content of beneficial nutritive ...

Current Trends, Future Prospects and Constraints of Whole Microalgae and Their Fractions as a Functional Feed Ingredient for Animals

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are a highly diverse group of unicellular organisms that grow in a wide range of aquatic environments and are widely used as dietary supplements for both human and animal applications. Microalgae are rich in lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and other valuable bioactive components such as pigments, antioxidants and vitamins.

Fibril Synthesis From Food Processing By‐Products and Strategies for Structure–Function Stabilization for Food Applications

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Protein fibrils can be synthesized from both conventional and by‐product protein sources, each having distinct advantages. Stabilization through polysaccharides and polyphenols can enhance fibril functional properties, such as gelling, foaming, and emulsification, thus furthering their application in food and non‐food materials.

The wide gape of snakes: A comparison of the developing mandibular symphysis in sauropsids

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 937-949, June 2026.
Our analysis explores the adaptations at the mandibular symphysis required to allow extreme lower jaw mobility in macrostomate snakes taking a comparative approach. Abstract The origin and evolution of snakes has been marked by the acquisition of many morphological and functional novelties, one of which is the possession of a highly kinetic skull ...

TYRO3, AXL, MERTK and Their Ligands in Brain Metastases From Colorectal Cancers

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
TYRO3, AXL, and MERTK are expressed in primary tumors and extra‐cerebral and brain metastases from colorectal cancers. AXL, primarily expressed in endothelial cells, is the more conserved marker between primary tumor and brain metastasis. The Low AXL/High GAS6 ratio is of poor prognosis in metastatic colorectal cancer patients.
