Multi-omic characterization of allele-specific regulatory variation in hybrid pigs

Nature Communications
Hybrid mapping is a powerful approach to efficiently identify and characterize genes regulated through mechanisms in cis. In this study, using reciprocal crosses of the phenotypically divergent Duroc and Lulai pig breeds, we perform a comprehensive multi-

The Vietnamese swine as a translational model of invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The flow diagram outlines the chemical induction of breast tumors through a single intraperitoneal dose of MNU. Tumor development was assessed using ultrasound and clinical examination. After 14 weeks, mammary tissue was collected and histologically analyzed to evaluate structural similarities between sows and humans, the carcinogenic potential of MNU,

Morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve: New insights for comparative studies in mammals

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.
