Hepatic Gene Expression and Metabolite Profiles of Androstenone and Skatole Relative to Plasma Estrone Sulfate Levels in Boars [PDF]
BiomoleculesTesticular steroids can alter the activity and expression of enzymes within the liver and may influence the metabolism of skatole and androstenone, which are responsible for boar taint.

Animals, 2020 Jerusalem artichoke contains inulin polysaccharide, which has prebiotic effects and influences the microbiota of the digestive tract. The addition of Jerusalem artichoke in boar diets may decrease the content of skatole and indole, which are the main ...

Microbiome-Based Clustering Identifies Glycemic Control-Related Subtypes in Youth With Recent-Onset Type 1 Diabetes. [PDF]
MedComm (2020)Microbiome‐based clustering investigated possible glycemic control‐related endotypes in youth with recent‐onset T1D, and found a potential role of Bacteroides and skatole production in glycemic control. This study offers novel perspectives on the influence of intestinal microbes and its metabolites in T1D heterogeneity and lays a foundation for future ...

Enhanced HPLC Method for Boar Taint Quantification [PDF]
ChemistryOpenBoar taint is an unpleasant odour found in the carcasses of entire male pigs, resulting from androstenone and skatole accumulation during pubertal development, and impacting pork quality.

Isolable Cysteine Sulfenyl Iodide: Stabilization by a Molecular Cradle, Crystal Structure, and Biologically Relevant Reactivity. [PDF]
ChembiochemAn isolable cysteine sulfenyl iodide (Cys–SI) stabilized by a molecular cradle is reported. X‐ray analysis and reactivity studies reveal hydrolysis to sulfenic acid, electrophilic substitution with indoles, and high reactivity toward amines and dimedone, providing direct evidence for long‐standing proposals on iodine‐mediated protein modification ...

Nutrients, 2023 Skatole (3-methylindole, 3MI) is a natural-origin compound derived from plants, insects, and microbial metabolites in human intestines. Skatole has an anti-lipid peroxidation effect and is a biomarker for several diseases.

Identification of the novel candidate genes and variants in boar liver tissues with divergent skatole levels using RNA deep sequencing. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Boar taint is the unpleasant odour of meat derived from non-castrated male pigs, caused by the accumulation of androstenone and skatole in fat. Skatole is a tryptophan metabolite produced by intestinal bacteria in gut and catabolised in liver. Since boar

Meat Science, 2023 Meat from lambs fattened on alfalfa is at risk of excessive pastoral flavours due to high levels of in-fat volatile indolic compounds (especially, skatole). Skatole has also been identified as a potential marker of interest for authenticating pasture-fed

IMPLEMENTATION OF GENOMIC INFORMATION IN SELECTION OF BOARS ON SKATOLE AND ANDROSTENONE CONCENTRATIONS [PDF]
Poljoprivreda, 2015 Genomic predictors offer an opportunity to overcome the limitations of classical selection against boar taint, and this study evaluated different approaches to obtain such predictors. Samples from 941 pigs were included in a design which was dominated by
