Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to examine the prevalence and factors influencing pressuring feeding styles among caregivers of infants in rural Sichuan province.
- Researchers collected data through questionnaires from 1,358 infant-caregiver pairs, finding that factors like caregiver education, family income, and caregivers' negative emotions significantly affected pressuring feeding behaviors.
- The findings suggest the need for targeted guidance to improve feeding environments and mental health support for caregivers, with the goal of encouraging healthier feeding practices in these rural communities.
Cellular retinoic acid binding protein 2 () is essential to myoblast differentiation. However, there was no report about the function of gene in cattle. This study explored the association of gene polymorphisms with growth traits in cattle breeds by several methods, such as DNA sequencing, PCR, PCR-RFLP and forced PCR-RFLP.

DNA methylation plays an important role in regulates gene expression, cell differentiation, genetic imprinting and tumor therapy. Retinoic acid-binding proteins (RAC) is vital for the absorption, transport, metabolism and maintenance of homeostasis of retinoic acid, which in turn regulates the differentiation and proliferation of cells by regulating the transcription of many target genes, therefore, these proteins influence differentiation and proliferation of adipocytes and muscle fibroblasts.
