Transcriptomic Analysis in the Liver of Two Rabbit Lines Divergently Selected for Intramuscular Fat Content

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The intramuscular fat (IMF) content is an important indicator of meat quality, affecting the sensory properties of meat. IMF is a complex trait with polygenic nature. This research aimed to identify differentially expressed (DE) genes and key transcription factors (TFs) associated with IMF deposition in the liver of two rabbit lines ...

Targeting Myostatin for Sustainable Meat Production: Insights From Multiple Species

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Myostatin gene (MSTN), a TGF‐β superfamily member, negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth, positioning it as a prime genetic target for enhancing livestock meat production. This review synthesizes evidence from 1979 to 2025 on MSTN mutations across cattle, pigs, poultry, sheep, goats, and rabbits, emphasising impacts on yield, quality ...

Microstructural Evidence for Early Childhood Stress in a Community in Transition at Hisban, Jordan

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Identification of stress across infancy and childhood can reflect maternal and environmental influences on early life health. In the 19th century community of Hisban, many infants died before 2 years of age with evidence of metabolic disease, including rickets, that likely ties with maternal health.

Nonclinical Considerations for Support of Pregnancy and Lactation in Clinical Trials

open access: yesBirth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Pregnant and breastfeeding individuals remain underrepresented in clinical drug development, leaving health care providers and patients with limited data to inform treatment decisions. Current practice relies heavily on nonclinical developmental and reproductive toxicity (DART) studies in animals, while clinical trials typically ...

ShenQiGan Extract Repairs Intestinal Barrier in Weaning-Stressed Piglets by Modulating Inflammatory Factors, Immunoglobulins, and Short-Chain Fatty Acids

open access: yesAnimals
Weaning stress damages the intestines and disrupts the intestinal barrier in piglets, which significantly impacts the pig farming industry’s economy. We aimed to examine the effects of ShenQiGan extract (CAG) on intestinal barrier function and explore ...

Effects and Mechanisms of Stevioside on Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
SV has the potential to prevent or treat MASLD by improving hepatic lipid metabolism, enhancing anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant capacity, and attenuating hepatic fibrosis. ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects more than 30% of adults globally and has emerged as a significant public health concern ...

Effects of taurine on the growth performance, diarrhea, oxidative stress and intestinal barrier function of weanling piglets

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Oxidative damage resulting from weaning stress significantly impacts the growth performance and health status of piglets. Taurine, a dietary antioxidant with diverse functions, was investigated in this study for its protective role against weaning stress-
