The sustainability of livestock systems is widely acknowledged to be threatened by climate change on a worldwide scale. There are worries about the effects this phenomenon may have on the productivity and performance of native livestock species due to its influence on environmental stresses, such as the frequency and severity of unfavorable weather occurrences and the ongoing changes in the agro-ecological landscape. Among the most climatically tolerant livestock animals, goats can survive in a range of environments, from deserts to alpine areas.

Cathelicidins are a diverse family of antimicrobial peptides found across many vertebrate species, playing a pivotal role in the innate immune system. These peptides exhibit a variety of structural motifs, including α-helices, β-hairpins, and random coils, contributing to their broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. The structural diversity of cathelicidins allows them to interact with a wide range of microbial targets, thereby enhancing their antimicrobial efficacy.

Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutant gliomas are classified as astrocytoma or oligodendroglioma based on the recent application of mutation, mutation, and 1p/19q co-deletion. Astrocytomas classically show and mutations, whereas oligodendrogliomas are defined by 1p/19q co-deletion. However, there are reports of gliomas that harbor both astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma morphologically and molecularly.

This study explored the maternal genetic diversity of six indigenous Indian horse and pony breeds (Bhutia, Kathiawari, Manipuri, Marwari, Spiti, and Zanskari) using comprehensive mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) analysis. Blood samples from 53 horses across diverse agro-climatic zones of India were analyzed, revealing 36 distinct haplotypes, with a haplotype diversity of 0.889 and nucleotide diversity of 0.

Entrapment neuropathies of the hip (ENH) can occur due to a variety of causes with clinical symptoms that may mimic musculoskeletal disorders. Etiologies include entrapment in a fibromuscular canal, tethering due to posttraumatic fibrosis and extrinsic compression from muscle hypertrophy or a mass. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging enables detection and characterization of peripheral nerve pathology.
