Dietary muramidase leads to the downregulation of peptidoglycan biosynthesis and to caecal microbial modulation in laying hens [PDF]
Animal MicrobiomeBackground In-feed muramidase enzyme has been linked to numerous advantages in several animal species. In the past years, muramidase has been shown to be effective in hydrolyzing peptidoglycan fragments, especially at small-intestine level in broilers ...

Dihydroartemisinin ameliorates innate inflammatory response induced by Streptococcus suis-derived muramidase-released protein via inactivation of TLR4-dependent NF-κB signaling [PDF]
Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis, 2023 Muramidase-released protein (MRP) is now being recognized as a critical indicator of the virulence and pathogenicity of Streptococcus suis (S. suis). However, the identification of viable therapeutics for S.

A multi-omics approach to elucidate the mechanisms of action of a dietary muramidase administered to broiler chickens [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 A novel dietary muramidase has been shown to have positive effects on broiler chickens. However, very little is known about its mechanisms of action. The present multi-omics investigation sought to address this knowledge gap.

Dietary muramidase improved growth performance, feed efficiency, breast meat yield, and welfare of turkeys from hatch to market [PDF]
Poultry Science, 2023 : Muramidase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes peptidoglycans of bacterial cell walls and improves performance of broilers in a dose-dependent manner. An experiment was conducted to evaluate muramidase supplementation, at a high or step-down dose, in turkeys ...

Muramidase in Polycythemia Vera [PDF]
Blood, 1970 Abstract The serum muramidase levels of 45 patients with polycythemia vera were found to be significantly elevated above the values in 20 normal subjects. The patients with polycythemia vera who were studied included those with active disease, those controlled with myelosuppressive agents and those in the spent phase.
