Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the effects of two types of rumen-protected methionine (coated methionine and HMBi) on growth, serum biochemistry, and rumen microbiota in meat goats, revealing both supplements improve growth performance, with HMBi being more effective.
- Both supplements significantly increased certain serum biochemical markers while lowering triglycerides and butyric acid levels, indicating a change in the goats' metabolic profiles.
- Microbiota analysis showed that while both supplements altered bacterial populations in the rumen, HMBi notably boosted beneficial bacterial strains but also raised ammonia-producing bacteria, affecting overall gut health.
The quality of lamb meat is positively correlated with intramuscular fat content. In recent years, a large number of studies have shown that miRNAs play an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of adipocytes. In this study, we aimed to explore the effect of miR-92a-3p on the differentiation of goat intramuscular preadipocytes.

N-Methyladenosine (m6A)-modified circular RNAs play important roles in adipocyte differentiation and metabolism. However, the mechanisms by which m6A modifies circRNA before and after differentiation of goat intramuscular adipocytes remain poorly understood.

Long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase () is a key enzyme for catalyzing fatty acid oxidation, and studies have shown is involved in the deposition and differentiation of intramuscular adipocytes. However, the effect of on intramuscular adipocytes differentiation in goats needs further study.
