Mucosal Mast Cells Response in the Jejunum of Ascaridia Galli-Infected Laying Hens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Intestinal defense mechanism against helminthes parasitic nematode to be associated with mucosal mast cells reaction. The aim of this research was to examine the effect of infection by Ascaridia galli parasite to trigger mucosal defense based on mucosal ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Participatory breeding system for laying hens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Livestock breeds (and breeding systems) developed for intensive production systems often do not perform as expected in organic and extensive systems.

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

Nest preference and laying duration traits to select against floor eggs in laying hens

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2023
Background Floor eggs, which are defined as eggs that hens lay off-nest, are a major issue in cage-free layer poultry systems. They create additional work for farmers because they must be collected by hand.

Changes in duodenal and nephritic Ca and P absorption in hens during different egg-laying periods

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Ca and P metabolic disorders during the egg-laying period can reduce egg production, impair eggshell quality, and even cause bone problems in hens; however, little is known regarding the capacity of duodenal and nephritic Ca and P absorption.

Potential of LCA for designing technological innovations – the case of organic eggs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Ecological sustainability in agriculture is a concept that contains various environmental problems, which are caused by emission of pollutants and unsustainable use of limited resources, during different processes along the food chain.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Effect of dietary vitamin C supplement on reproductive performance of aviary pheasants

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2005
The effects of three doses of vitamin C (100, 200 and 300 mg/kg) added to the feed of reproductive pheasants on egg production, egg fertility and parameters of hatchability were investigated.

Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed the liver heterogeneity between egg-laying duck and ceased-laying duck

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2022
Background In the late phase of production, ducks untimely cease laying, leading to a lower feed conversion. Liver plays a vital role in the synthesis and transport of yolk materials during egg formation in birds.
