EXOSOMES FROM CYCLIC MICE MODULATE LIVER TRANSCRIPTOME IN ESTROUPAUSE MICE INDEPENDENT OF AGE.

Background: Exosomes are extracellular vesicles secreted by cells that contain microRNAs (miRNAs). These miRNAs can induce changes in gene expression and function of recipient cells. In different cells exosome content can change with age and physiological state affecting tissues function and health.

The antidepressant effect of Komagataella pastoris KM 71 H in maternal separation mice model mediated by the microbiota-gut-brain axis.

Background: The intestinal microbiota plays a fundamental role in maintaining host health, especially during childhood, a critical period for its establishment. Early life stress can lead to shifts in gut microbiota composition, thus increasing the risk of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adulthood. The supplementation with probiotics restores intestinal permeability and the health of gut microbial communities, therefore being potential study targets for the treatment of MDD.

Iridaea cordata lipid extract associated with the rCP01850 protein of C. pseudotuberculosis elicited a Th1 immune response in immunized sheep.

Sheep farming contributes to the socioeconomic development of small and medium-scale livestock farmers. However, several factors can hinder successful animal production, as is the case for infectious diseases, such as the one caused by Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis, known as caseous lymphadenitis (CLA). CLA has >90% prevalence in Brazilian herds and antibiotic treatment is not effective, consequently causing significant economic losses to farmers.

Oncopig bladder cancer cells recapitulate human bladder cancer treatment responses .

Introduction: Bladder cancer is a common neoplasia of the urinary tract that holds the highest cost of lifelong treatment per patient, highlighting the need for a continuous search for new therapies for the disease. Current bladder cancer models are either imperfect in their ability to translate results to clinical practice (mouse models), or rare and not inducible (canine models). Swine models are an attractive alternative to model the disease due to their similarities with humans on several levels.
