Dietary Copper Supplementation Enhances Lipolysis in Rex Rabbits

Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 2021
Copper is an important regulator of lipid metabolism in mammals, as a cofactor of many enzymes and is involved in the lipolysis. Copper deficiency has been considered as a significant factor in human diseases related to abnormal lipid metabolism, while adding copper to the diet seems to be the simplest and most effective way to prevent copper ...

First Identification of Blastocystis sp. Subtypes in Rex Rabbits in China

Parasitology Research, 2023
Blastocystis sp. is a common protist that colonizes the intestinal tract in both humans and animals worldwide. A total of 666 fecal samples of Rex rabbits were collected from 12 farms in three administrative regions in Henan, China. Blastocystis sp. was screened and subtyped by PCR amplification of the small subunit ribosomal DNA. The results indicated

CDK1 promotes the proliferation of melanocytes in Rex rabbits

Genes & Genomics, 2022
The fur color constitutes one of the most important economic characteristics of fur animals and is determined by the content of melanin. A previous study has shown that the cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) is a member of the protein kinase family, involved in forming the color of the fur in Rex rabbits.

Ossifying Fibroma in a Miniature Rex Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus)

Veterinary Pathology, 2006
In humans and animals, ossifying fibroma is a benign neoplasm that most frequently affects the mandible, often resulting in cosmetic deformities and malocclusion. It is considered rare in animals and most frequently affects young horses. A surgical biopsy of a solitary mass located beneath the gingiva in the right maxillary region, which had overgrown

Melatonin supplement induced the hair follicle development in offspring rex rabbits

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, 2020
AbstractPrevious studies have shown that the administration of melatonin (MT) to early post‐natal fur‐bearing animals increases the numbers of hair follicles (HFs). In this study, the effect of maternal MT supplementation on the HF development in offspring was investigated. To explore the potential underlying mechanisms, the expression of the melatonin

NRAS promotes the proliferation of melanocytes to increase melanin deposition in Rex rabbits

Genome, 2023
Melanocytes play a major role in the formation of mammalian fur color and are regulated by several genes. Despite playing the pivotal role in the study of melanoma, the mechanistic role of NRAS (neuroblastoma RAS viral oncogene homolog) in the formation of mammalian epidermal color is still elusive. First of all, the expression levels of NRAS mRNA and

Morphological Characterization and Gene Expression Patterns for Melanin Pigmentation in Rex Rabbit

Biochemical Genetics, 2019
Animal melanin has an important role in the formation of animal fur and skin, which is determined by its quantities, character, and distribution. To identify the effect of melanin on the formation of multi-colored Rex rabbits (Black, Chinchilla, Beaver, Protein cyan, Protein yellow, White), the structure of hair follicles and melanin content in multi ...

Heat stress decreased hair follicle population in rex rabbits

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, 2018
AbstractThe aim of this study was conducted to investigate the effect of heat stress on the hair follicle population and related signalling pathways in rex rabbits. Forty‐eight rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: one group in a high ambient environment (32 ± 2°C, heat stress) and the other group with normal temperature (20 ± 2°C, control ...

Organophosphorus poisoning in two Rex rabbits

New Zealand Veterinary Journal, 1984
A case of organophosphorus (OP) poisoning in two Rex rabbits is described. Three animals were diagnosed as having dermatitis characterised by pruritus and alopecia due to infestation with Cheyletiella parasitivorax. Two of the animals were dipped in 2% malathion solution: one died within 15 hours post-dipping, the other was euthanased subsequent to the
