Runting and Stunting Syndrome Is Associated With Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Sex-Linked Dwarf Chicken

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Runting and stunting syndrome (RSS) in chicken are commonly known as “frozen chicken.” The disease is characterized by lower body weight and slow growth and the incidence rate is widely 5%–20% in sex-linked dwarf (SLD) chickens.

Anti-Schistosomal Activity of Cinnamic Acid Esters: Eugenyl and Thymyl Cinnamate Induce Cytoplasmic Vacuoles and Death in Schistosomula of Schistosoma mansoni

Molecules, 2015
Bornyl caffeate (1) was previously isolated by us from Valeriana (V.) wallichii rhizomes and identified as an anti-leishmanial substance. Here, we screened a small compound library of synthesized derivatives 1–30 for activity against schistosomula of ...
