Mutations on a conserved distal enhancer in the porcine C-reactive protein gene impair its expression in liver
(Frontiers Media, 2023-09-14)
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an evolutionary highly conserved protein. Like humans, CRP acts as a major acute phase protein in pigs. While CRP regulatory mechanisms have been extensively studied in humans, ...
Recent Advances in Enteric Methane Mitigation and the Long Road to Sustainable Ruminant Production
(Annual Reviews, 2024-02)
Mitigation of methane emission, a potent greenhouse gas, is a worldwide priority to limit global warming. A substantial part of anthropogenic methane is emitted by the livestock sector, as methane is a ...
Gut barrier-microbiota imbalances in early life lead to higher sensitivity to inflammation in a murine model of C-section delivery
(BMC, 2023-07-03)
Background Most interactions between the host and its microbiota occur at the gut barrier, and primary colonizers
are essential in the gut barrier maturation in the early life. The mother–ofspring ...
Short Communication: Comparing the microbiota diversity from the core, middle part and rind of six Spanish commercial goat cheeses
(Elsevier, 2024-05-23)
The cheese core has a lower oxygen saturation and salinity and a higher acidity than the rind, but there is controversy about the incidence of such factors on the magnitude of microbial diversity. The ...
Copy Number Variation on ABCC2-DNMBP Loci Affects the Diversity and Composition of the Fecal Microbiota in Pigs
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-05-31)
Genetic variation in the pig genome partially modulates the composition of porcine gut microbial communities. Previous studies have been focused on the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms ...
Identification of candidate regulatory genes for intramuscular fatty acid composition in pigs by transcriptome analysis
(BMC, 2024-02-12)
Background
Intramuscular fat (IMF) content and its fatty acid (FA) composition are typically controlled by several genes, each with a small effect. In the current study, to pinpoint candidate genes and ...
