Phytochemicals have been effectively used to enhance the growth and productivity of farm animals, while the potential roles of essential oils and their nano-emulsions are limited. This plan was proposed to investigate the impacts of orally administered moringa oil (MO) or its nano-emulsion (NMO) on the growth, physiological response, blood health, semen attributes, and sperm antioxidant-related genes in rams. A total of 15 growing Rahmani rams were enrolled in this study and allotted into three groups.

Background: Avian mycoplasmas are small bacteria associated with several pathogenic conditions in many wild and poultry bird species. Extensive genomic data are available for many avian mycoplasmas, yet no comparative studies focusing on this group of mycoplasmas have been undertaken so far.
Results: Here, based on the comparison of forty avian mycoplasma genomes belonging to ten different species, we provide insightful information on the phylogeny, pan/core genome, energetic metabolism, and virulence of these avian pathogens.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with KMT2A rearrangements (KMT2Ar), found on chromosome 11q23, is often called KMT2A-rearranged AML (KMT2Ar-AML). This variant is highly aggressive, characterized by rapid disease progression and poor outcomes. Growing knowledge of epigenetic changes, especially lactylation, has opened new avenues for investigation and management of this subtype.

However, the lack of knowledge about such targets hinders our understanding of rRF functions or binding mechanisms. The paucity of resources supporting the identification of the targets of rRFs creates a bottleneck in the fast-developing field.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive breast cancer subtype with poor prognosis. RNA alternative splicing dysregulation plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of TNBC. This article systematically introduces the basic process of RNA splicing and then focuses on reviewing the aberrant alternative splicing events and their biological effects in TNBC: 1) Multiple splicing-related factors promote tumor cell proliferation and mediate chemotherapy resistance by regulating the alternative splicing of genes involved in cell survival and drug response; 2) dysregulation of splicing regulatory networks leads to altered splicing of multiple metastasis-related genes, promoting tumor invasion and metastasis; 3) aberrant alternative splicing events participate in tumor progression by affecting the expression of DNA damage repair genes; 4) dysregulation of alternative splicing is also involved in the regulation of tumor immune evasion and stem cell properties.
