Accuracy and precision in DM intake prediction models for lactating dairy cows

Animal
Predicting the daily DM intake (DMI) of lactating dairy cows is an essential criterion for formulating diets according to requirements, which limits the application of safety margins in economically and environmentally sensitive nutrients, such as energy,

Ruminant meat flavor influenced by different factors with special reference to fatty acids

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2018
Ruminant meat flavor is an important quality and sensory parameter which relays mainly on the organoleptic characteristics of meat. Meat flavor is vital factor for the palatability and acceptability of meat by the consumers.

The Legislation for Providing Animal Access in Australian Residential Aged Care: It's Not a Zoo

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Providing meaningful animal contact to residential aged care facility (RACF) residents is problematic due to a lack of animal policies and National Guidelines. This paper examines how Australian Legislation could influence access to animal contact in RACFs and aims to answer the question, ‘Could current Legislation facilitate the development ...

Sec8: a novel positive regulator of RIG-I in anti-RNA viral defense

Cell Death and Disease
Sec8, an exocyst complex subunit, is pivotal in facilitating the docking of exocytic vesicles to fusion sites on the plasma membrane. However, its involvement in the antiviral innate immune response and virus replication remains unclear.

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

PBLD promotes IRF3 mediated the type I interferon (IFN-I) response and apoptosis to inhibit viral replication

Cell Death and Disease
Recent studies have implicated the phenazine biosynthesis-like domain-containing protein (PBLD) in the negative regulation of the development and progression of various cancers. However, its function in viral infection remains unknown.

In‐vitro puncture experiment using alligator teeth tracks the formation of dental microwear and its association with hardness of the diet

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and
