Weaning Induces Stress-Dependent DNA Methylation and Transcriptional Changes in Piglet PBMCs
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Changes to the epigenome, including those to DNA methylation, have been proposed as mechanisms by which stress can induce long-term physiological changes in livestock species. Pig weaning is associated with dietary and social stress, both of which elicit

Assessing the relationship between pigs’ stress resilience and their behavior in response to weaning
Frontiers in Animal ScienceIntroductionAs pigs are exposed to multiple stressors in production systems, we must understand their ability to be resilient to a range of environmental challenges to maintain production and welfare.

EFFECT OF MATRICARIA CHAMOMILLA CH12 WEANING STRESS IN PIGS [PDF]
Colloquium Agrariae, 2016 Weaning is a phase of life that creates stress in pigs causing damage to the welfare and health of pigs. The Matricaria chamomilla cH12 reduced stress management in cattle, but has not been tested in pigs.

AntioxidantsThere are different stress resistance among different breeds of pigs. Changes in intestinal stem cells (ISCs) are still unclear among various breeds of piglets after early weaning. In the current study, Taoyuan Black and Duroc piglets were slaughtered at

Stress and antioxidative status of Zovawk piglets at different intervals of weaning
Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2022 Stress and antioxidative status of weaned Zovawk piglets were analysed by estimating stress and antioxidative biomarkers. Cortisol, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (N:L), SOD, GPx, catalase and concentration of GSH, TBARS and FRAP were estimated in blood

Analysis of Serum microRNA Expression Profiles and Comparison with Small Intestinal microRNA Expression Profiles in Weaned Piglets. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Weaning stress induces tissue injuries and impairs health and growth in piglets, especially during the first week post-weaning. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play vital roles in regulating stresses and diseases.

Tracing early life histories from Roman times to the Medieval era: weaning practices and physiological stress [PDF]
, 2023 and cultural factors. While infant feeding strategies vary across different regions and historical eras, the associated transition from breastmilk to solid foods is universally thought to be stressful.
