Unravelling the Genetic Mechanisms of Litter Traits in a Maternal Line of Pigs
Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Reproductive traits related to litter size are the main indicators of reproductive efficiency in pig production and are continuously evaluated for the selection of maternal lines. Several environmental and genetic factors are involved with the development of these traits.

The Effects of Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) on Brown Adipogenesis in Stem Cell Culture [PDF]
, 2019 Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are major maternal dietary supplements due to their positive benefits on neurological tissue growth during the first 12 weeks of gestation ...

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.Irisin is an extracellular peptide stimulated by exercise and could act as both a biomarker and mediate the positive impact of exercise. This scoping review synthesizes human evidence on irisin variations in non‐communicable diseases, showing an increase of irisin in saliva and gingival tissues in periodontitis, potentially reflecting reparative or ...

Old and new determinants in the regulation of energy expenditure [PDF]
, 2018 Bw gain is controlled by energy intake on one hand and expenditure on the other. The components of energy expenditure are basal metabolism, exercise induced thermogenesis and adaptive thermogenesis.

Associations Between Body Composition and Metabolic Health in Children With Obesity
Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Childhood obesity is an increasing public health problem with heterogeneous metabolic health outcomes. In children, distinguishing differences in body composition between individuals with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) and those with metabolic syndrome (MS) may be useful for understanding the impact of body composition on metabolic health.

Maternal Obesity and MicroRNAs in Breast Milk: Implications for Infant Developmental Programming
Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This review explores the relationship between maternal obesity and alterations in the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in breast milk, highlighting how these changes may influence the developmental programming of the infant. Evidence suggests that maternal obesity can affect the bioactive composition of breast milk, including miRNA profiles ...
