Effect of level of cassava pulp in fermented total mixed ration on feed intake, nutrient digestibility, ruminal fermentation and chewing behavior in goats [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2020
The objective of this study was to determine the effects of cassava pulp level in fermented total mixed ration (FTMR) on feed intake, nutrient digestibility, chewing behavior, and ruminal fermentation. Four native crossbred goats were randomly assigned

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Influence of diet nutrient density and a multicarbohydrase containing α-galactosidase on performance, carcass characteristics, breast myopathies, and nutrient utilization of broilers reared from 1 to 42 days of age

Poultry Science
This study evaluated the effects of nutrient density and the usage of a multicarbohydrase containing α-galactosidase enzyme (CAG) on broiler performance, carcass characteristics, and nutrient utilization from 1 to 42 d of age.

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Effect of carbohydrate source, feeding level (restricted vs. satiation) and their combination on nutrient digestibility, bile acid balance, faecal waste production and characteristics of yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi)

Aquaculture Reports
The effect of carbohydrate source on nutrient digestibility, bile acid balance, faecal waste production and characteristics were investigated in yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi).

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Addition of phytogenic blend in different nutrient density diets of meat-type ducks

Journal of Applied Animal Research, 2018
A total of 160 1-d-old ducklings (mixed gender) were used to evaluate the effects of dietary phytogenic supplementation on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and nutrient digestibility.

Nutrient Digestibility and Digestive Enzyme Activity in Fringe Lipped Carp, Labeo fimbriatus (Bloch, 1795), Fed Diets Containing Cottonseed Meal

Asian Fisheries Science, 2021
Advanced fingerlings of Labeo fimbriatus (Bloch, 1795) were reared in aerated indoor plastic tanks to elucidate the dry matter and nutrient digestibility of cottonseed meal (CSM) in the feed.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Nutrient digestibility of West African Dwarf sheep fed graded levels of dried pineapple waste

The Proceedings of the Nigerian Academy of Science
This study investigated the nutrient digestibility of West African Dwarf (WAD) sheep fed graded levels of dried pineapple waste (DPW). Twenty 5-7 months old WAD sheep of both sexes, weighing 11.84±0.28kg, were randomly allotted to four treatments of ...
