Heat Stress in Quail: Impacts on Health and Productivity, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts physiological homeostasis in quail, inducing oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and metabolic imbalance, which impair growth, reproduction, product quality, and welfare. Integrating nutritional, environmental, and genetic–epigenetic strategies enhances thermotolerance, sustains productivity, and supports climate‐smart quail ...

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Cardioprotective effect of spirulina on cafeteria diet‐induced cardiac injury in silico and in vivo study

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, primarily due to its effects on lipid metabolism, oxidative stress, and inflammation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of spirulina (SP) on cafeteria diet (CD)‐induced myocardial oxidative stress and inflammation using biochemical, histological, and in ...

β-Apo-8′-Carotenal as an Egg Yolk Pigmenter

Poultry Science, 1962
Abstract β -APO-8′-carotenal has been shown to be an effective pigmenter for coloring egg yolks in vivo (Steinegger et al., 1957; Bunnell and Bauernfeind, 1958; Bauernfeind and Marusich, 1959; Marusich et al., 1960a). It has also been shown to possess vitamin A activity (Euler et al., 1938; Glover and Redfearn, 1954).
