We investigated the oxidative mechanisms and identified the target protein induced by heat treatment. The study was carried out on M. longissimus thoracis from Galia and Redone pigs. Post mortem metabolic parameters and drip loss were determined. Heat treatment was performed at 100 °C for 10 and 30 min. Physicochemical state of the protein, TBA-RS and Schiff bases were assessed. Protein aggregates were evaluated and the protein target of oxidation studied. Muscles from Galia had higher residual glycogen and drip loss. Heat treatment increased surface hydrophobicity, carbonyl, protein aggregate and Schiff bases and TBA-RS whatever the treatment time. Immunoblotting revealed oxidized myosin, oxidized actin and high molecular weight proteins after 30 min cooking. Oxidation products were significantly correlated with drip loss, suggesting a possible reduced ability of oxidized proteins to retain water. Moreover, residual glycogen was positively correlated with oxidized myosin, suggesting a possible role of glycogen as a glucose donor.

Weathering the Pain: Ambient Temperature's Role in Chronic Pain Syndromes.
Curr Pain Headache Rep

Department of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, New York University Langone Health, New York, NY, USA.
Purpose Of Review: Chronic pain is highly prevalent and involves a complex interaction of sensory, emotional, and cognitive processes, significantly influenced by ambient temperature. Despite advances in pain management, many patients continue to experience inadequate pain relief. This review aims to consolidate and critically evaluate the current evidence on the impact of ambient temperature on chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia (FM), multiple sclerosis (MS), complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and osteoarthritis (OA).

The integration of environmental health (EH) into routine clinical care for children is in its early stages. The vision of pediatric EH is that all clinicians caring for children are aware of and able to help connect families to needed resources to reduce harmful environmental exposures and increase health-enhancing ones. Environmental exposures include air pollution, substandard housing, lead, mercury, pesticides, consumer products chemicals, drinking water contaminants, industrial facility emissions and, increasingly, climate change-related extreme weather and heat events.

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, posing a significant threat to human health. Although immunotherapy has shown promise in cancer treatment, its efficacy is often compromised by tumor immune evasion, which hinders treatment outcomes. Therefore, combining immunotherapy with other therapeutic approaches to enhance its effectiveness has become an increasingly accepted strategy in clinical practice.

Japanese quails () are sensitive to zinc (Zn) deficiency, a mineral essential for growth, development, and bone health. This study evaluated the effects of different levels of Zn in the diet on zootechnical performance, organ and carcass weight, and tibial breakage resistance in quails from 1 to 42 days of age. A 5 × 2 factorial design was used, consisting of five Zn levels (30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 mg/kg) and two thermal environments (thermal comfort and heat stress), with five replicates of 10 birds per treatment.

Primordial germ cells (PGCs) play a crucial role in transmitting genetic information to the next-generation. In chickens, genetically edited PGCs can be propagated and subsequently transplanted into recipient embryos to produce offspring with desired genetic traits. However, during early embryogenesis, the effects of external conditions on PGC migration through the vascular system to the gonads have yet to be explored, which may affect the efficiency of preparing gene-edited chickens.
