Genetic Diversity, Adaptation, Wild Introgression, and Coat Color Mutation of Golden Yak

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity, adaptation, wild introgression, and coat color mutation of golden yak from two populations on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau. ABSTRACT The golden yak lives on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau with a golden coat and adapts to high altitudes and strong ultraviolet environment. The golden coat is a prominent phenotype in many domesticated species,

Taurine depletion and Schwann cell dysfunction in diabetic neuropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is estimated that 2.6 million people in the UK suffer from diabetes, 50% of whom suffer from diabetic neuropathy. Patients with diabetes have low levels of platelet and plasma taurine and in animal models taurine supplementation ameliorates ...

The Multifaceted Origin of Taurine Cattle Reflected by the Mitochondrial Genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A Neolithic domestication of taurine cattle in the Fertile Crescent from local aurochsen (Bos primigenius) is generally accepted, but a genetic contribution from European aurochsen has been proposed.

Modulation of endothelium-derived nitric oxide production and activity by taurine and taurine-conjugated bile acids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Taurine is a semiessential amino acid found at high concentrations in mammalian plasma and cells, where it regulates cellular functions such as ion flux, controls cell volume and serves as a substrate for conjugated bile acids (BM).

Investigation on the action mechanisms of taurine on rumen microbial crude protein synthesis and nitrogen metabolism in beef steers using sodium sulfate as a contrast

open access: yesAnimal Nutrition
Taurine is a sulfur-containing nonproteinogenic amino acid. Recent studies have shown that taurine can improve rumen microbial crude protein (MCP) synthesis. This experiment aimed to investigate the action mechanisms of taurine on rumen MCP synthesis and

Tissue‐Specific and Spatially Dependent Metabolic Signatures Perturbed by Injury in Male and Female Mice

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoarthritis, the leading cause of disability worldwide, disproportionately affects women, yet sex remains an overlooked determinant. This disparity stems from sex‐specific differences in injury susceptibility—a major risk factor for disease.

Metabolism of cysteine to taurine by rat hepatocytes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
During the past two decades, many investigators have assumed that the major locus of regulation of cysteine catabolism is the partitioning of cysteinesulfinate between its decarboxylation and transamination pathways.

Protective effects of taurine against muscle damage induced by diquat in 35 days weaned piglets

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2020
Background Oxidative stress is a key factor that influences piglets’ health. Taurine plays an imperative role in keeping the biological system from damage. This study was conducted to investigate the protective effect of taurine against muscle injury due

Metabolomic investigation of cisplatin‐induced acute kidney injury in paediatric cancer patients

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Cisplatin causes acute kidney injury (AKI) in approximately 46% of paediatric cancer patients who receive it. Serum creatinine (SCr) is a poor biomarker of cisplatin nephrotoxicity, because there is a delay between cisplatin infusion and SCr elevation.

The mitochondrial permeability transition and taurine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Perturbed cellular calcium homeostasis has been implicated in both apoptosis and necrosis., but the role of altered mitochondrial calcium handling in the cell death process is unclear.
