Effects of Dietary Gallic Acid on Growth Performance, Meat Quality, Antioxidant Capacity, and Muscle Fiber Type-Related Gene Expression in Broiler Chickens Challenged with Lipopolysaccharide.

Animals (Basel)

December 2024

Institute of Animal Science, Guangdong Academy of Agricultural Sciences, State Key Laboratory of Swine and Poultry Breeding, Key Laboratory of Animal Nutrition and Feed Science in South China, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Animal Breeding and Nutrition, Guangzhou 510640, China.

In this study, broilers were selected as the research object to investigate the effects and mechanisms of dietary gallic acid (GA) supplementation on growth performance, meat quality, antioxidant capacity, and muscle fiber-related gene expression. A total of 750 one-day-old healthy 817 male crossbred broiler chickens were divided into five treatment groups, with six replicates per group. Birds in the control (CON) group and LPS-challenged treatment (LPS) group were fed a basal diet, and birds in the other three treatment groups received the basal diet with 150, 300, or 450 mg/kg added GA (GA150, GA300, GA450).

Article Synopsis
  • This study examines how the growth and calcification of the appendicular skeleton in the Raja asterias affects its movement in water, highlighting the link between bone structure and fin mechanics.
  • It identifies two growth patterns—crustal in larger skeletal parts and catenated in fin radials—showing how differences in development can influence fin flexibility and locomotion.
  • The results suggest that unique calcification patterns, especially in the pelvic fins, evolve to meet the mechanical needs of swimming, emphasizing the adaptability of Batoidea fins through their joint structures and specialized designs.

Background: Desmoid-type fibromatosis of the breast is a rare, benign, but locally aggressive tumor that typically affects women. Its presentation in male patients is exceedingly rare, and even more so following a cosmetic procedure such as liposuction. This case report describes a unique presentation of breast fibromatosis in a male patient, who developed the condition after undergoing liposuction for cosmetic purposes to define the pectoral area.

Lineage labeling with zebrafish Cre and CreERT2 recombinase CRISPR knock-ins.

bioRxiv

December 2024

Department of Genetics, Development and Cell Biology, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa 50011-1101 USA.

Background: The ability to generate endogenous Cre recombinase drivers using CRISPR-Cas9 knock-in technology allows lineage tracing, cell type specific gene studies, and validation of inferred developmental trajectories from phenotypic and gene expression analyses. This report describes endogenous zebrafish Cre and CreERT2 drivers generated with GeneWeld CRISPR-Cas9 precision targeted integration.

Results: and knock-ins crossed with ubiquitous -based Switch reporters led to broad labeling in expected mesodermal and neural crest-derived lineages in cardiac, pectoral fins, pharyngeal arch, liver, intestine, and mesothelial tissues, as well as enteric neurons.

Introduction Breast cancer is one of the most common female malignancies in the United States and often necessitates surgical interventions that carry a substantial risk of postoperative pain. Pectoral nerve blocks have emerged as a simpler alternative for providing regional perioperative analgesia to the chest wall in breast cancer surgery. This retrospective study evaluated the impact of implementing a novel regional anesthesia protocol centering on the use of pectoral nerve blocks for patients undergoing radical mastectomy at a small regional hospital in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
