A Missense p.Q>R234 Mutation in the Osteopontin Gene Is Associated With the Prolificacy of Iraqi Awassi Ewes

open access: yes, 2023
One of the most valuable traits in production and breeding is a sheep’s prolificacy which is influenced by several genes, one of which is the osteopontin ( OPN ) gene.

Genome-Wide Scan for Selective Sweeps Reveals Novel Loci Associated with Prolificacy in Iranian Sheep Breeds in Comparison with Highly Prolific Exotic Breed

open access: yesAnimals
Domestication and selection significantly changed phenotypic traits in modern domestic animals. To identify the genomic regions associated with prolificacy in this study, 837 ewes from three Iranian indigenous sheep breeds, consisting of Baluchi, Lori ...

PAK1 activation drives divergent resistance mechanisms to aromatase inhibition and tamoxifen in a luminal: A breast cancer model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.

Spatial and single‐nuclei transcriptomics reveals idiosyncratic and generic patterns in papillary and anaplastic thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Matched spatial transcriptomics and single‐nuclei RNA‐seq were generated for anaplastic and BRAFV600E papillary thyroid cancers revealing generic and tumor‐specific states occurring in cancer cells and in the tumor microenvironment. In this context, cancer dedifferentiation mirrored organoid maturation through ordered thyroid marker gain/loss ...

Association between the prolificacy of Romanov sheep breed and Fecundity gene, growth differentiation Factor 9 gene and Prolactin gene genotypes

open access: yes, 2017
Prolificacy data of Romanov sheep breed were retrieved from Sekhra Station (Jordan) through five parities. The data were used for studying the effect of Fecundity (FecB), Growth Differentiation Factor 9 (GDF9) and Prolactin genes on the prolificacy of ...

Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Global Evidence for the Effects of BMPR1B, BMP15, and GDF9 Polymorphisms on Litter Size in Sheep: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesRuminants
Major fecundity (Fec) genes play a central role in regulating the ovulation rate and litter size in sheep and have become important targets for genetic improvement programs.
