Continuous glucose monitoring detects spontaneous reactive and fasting hypoglycaemia in cystic fibrosis adults without diabetes

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract People with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) experience a spectrum of glucose disorders. Spontaneous hypoglycaemia is a unique entity affecting pwCF and can be an incidental finding on biochemistry. Our prospective, single‐arm pilot study of eight pwCF without confirmed diabetes and incidental biochemical hypoglycaemia found 62.5% demonstrated fasting ...

Linoleic Acid Enhances Murine Natural Killer Cell Function In Vitro but Compromises Mitochondrial Bioenergetic Function During Retroviral Infection

Immunology, EarlyView.
Natural Killer (NK) cells are potent effectors against virus‐infected and tumour cells. During Friend Virus (FV) infection, fatty acid metabolism supports NK‐cell effector functions. Here, we found that NK cells from FV‐infected mice preferentially take up linoleic acid (LA), which reduced proliferation, mitochondrial function, and increased reactive ...

Evaluating Selection Strategies Based on Inbreeding Load via Simulation

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inbreeding load is the fraction of the mutation load that is due to recessive action of mutations. This load is only expressed in individual's inbred offspring. As such, inbreeding load contributes to genetic heterogeneity among individuals and can thus be used as a criterion of selection.

Characterizing Runs of Homozygosity and Inbreeding in American Mink Using SNP Data and Pedigree Information

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inbreeding increases the likelihood of deleterious recessive alleles becoming homozygous and consequently affecting economically important traits. Runs of homozygosity (ROH), the continuous homozygous segments of the genome and the higher than expected homozygosity (HOM) are genomic indicators of inbreeding, quantified as FROH and FHOM ...

Genomic variation drives plant flavor diversification

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explains how genomic variation shapes plant flavor by altering the biosynthetic and regulatory pathways of key attributes like sweetness, acidity, bitterness, piquancy, astringency, and aroma. It also discusses how multi‐omics, AI‐assisted breeding, and gene editing can translate this knowledge into plants with improved flavor, nutrition ...
