Assessing the combination efficiency of some unconventional feed resources with concentrates and Chloris gayana grass in mitigating ruminal methane production in vitro

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 1761-1770, November 2024.
Abstract In a preliminary in vitro study, leaves of Acacia nilotica, Prosopis juliflora, Cajanus cajan, Leucaena leucocephala and seed kernel of Mangifera indica were identified as potential candidates in mitigating ruminal methane (CH4) production. The objective of the current study was to investigate the combination efficiency of these unconventional

JRK binds satellite III DNA and is necessary for the heat shock response

Cell Biology International, Volume 48, Issue 8, Page 1212-1222, August 2024.
Abstract JRK is a DNA‐binding protein of the pogo superfamily of transposons, which includes the well‐known centromere binding protein B (CENP‐B). Jrk null mice exhibit epilepsy, and growth and reproductive disorders, consistent with its relatively high expression in the brain and reproductive tissues.

Mimosine and cyclophosphamide: a potential new combination therapy used to prevent tumor development

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2012
The effects of mimosine (MI), which is an amino acid that is derived from Leucaena leucocephala, were evaluated on the growth of ascitic Ehrlich tumors, and the effects of the combination treatment of MI and cyclophosphamide (CY) on tumor growth were ...

Microorganisms in the rumen and intestine of camels have the ability to degrade 2‐amino‐3‐methylimidazo[4, 5‐f]quinoline

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 7, Page 4667-4679, July 2024.
This work was the first to obtain IQ‐degrading bacteria from digestive tract of camels and to reveal the characteristics of these degrading bacteria. Results provided microbial resources for biodegradation of foodborne toxins. Abstract Heterocyclic amines (HAs) are a group of mutagenic and carcinogenic compounds produced from the processing of high ...

Hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α attenuates renal podocyte injury in male rats in a simulated high‐altitude environment by upregulating Krüppel‐like factor 4 expression

Experimental Physiology, Volume 109, Issue 7, Page 1188-1198, 1 July 2024.
Abstract Previous studies have shown that podocyte injury is involved in the development of proteinuria in rats under hypobaric hypoxia conditions. Prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (PHIs) may reduce proteinuria. This study aimed to further investigate whether the protective effects of hypoxia‐inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) on podocyte injury induced by ...
