Immunomodulatory activities of bovine host defense peptides (HDPs): context-dependent roles in inflammation and immune priming

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Maintaining immune homeostasis is essential for livestock health and productivity, particularly in the face of infection or stress. Host defense peptides (HDPs), including β-defensins and cathelicidins, are key innate immune components with ...

Multipathway synergy promotes testicular transition from growth to spermatogenesis in early-puberty goats

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background The microscopic process of postnatal testicular development in early-puberty animals is poorly understood. Therefore, in this study, 21 male Yiling goats with average ages of 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 days old (each age group comprised ...

A Genomic Catalog of Migratory Microbiomes from Wild Birds across China's Habitats

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Migratory birds play an important role in the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR); however, gaps in surveillance data from vital regions along migratory flyways across China limit the detection of emergent threats. Here, we assembled 340 metagenomes from 52 bird species covering 11 provincial administrative districts in China, presenting ...

Time to consider ruling out inclusion bodies denaturing protocols for spontaneous solubilization of biologically active proteins

Scientific Reports
The formation of inclusion bodies (IBs) in microbial cell factories is a very common process occurring during recombinant protein production. Different protocols have been developed for the extraction of soluble proteins from IBs using several strategies,
