Short (7 days) T3-treatment has no influence on the plasma glucose and FFA concentration and blood lactate level, as well as on the hepatic glycogen content in the rats. The rise in T3 levels, observed in our study, was accompanied by a fall in T4 concentrations, indicating suppression of the endogenous T4 production. On the other hand, glycogenolytic activity of rat serum in vitro is the highest in the system: control liver slices-serum of rats pretreated with T3 as compared to the system: control liver slices-control serum. These observations may lead to conclusions, that serum of rats pretreated with T3 contains factors exhibiting the greater ability to mobilize glucose from liver slices than the control serum (euthyroid). The possibility, that pretreatment with T3 may cause a decrease in the number and/or affinity of beta-adrenergic receptors in the rat liver, is discussed.

Background: Physical activity, such as running, protects against cardiovascular disease and obesity but can induce oxidative stress. Athletes often consume antioxidants to counteract the overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species during exercise. , particularly its phycocyanin content, activates the Nrf2 pathway, stimulating antioxidant responses.

Objectives: This study aimed to clarify the effect of lactic acid bacteria-fermented corn protein hydrolysate (FCH) on fatigue in mice and explore the connection between fatigue-related indicators and intestinal microbial flora.

Methods: The fatigue model of mice was constructed by exercise endurance experiment. The anti-fatigue level of FCH was evaluated by measuring physiological and biochemical indexes in mouse serum, liver and skeletal muscle.

Cardiac metabolism relies on glycogen conversion by glycolysis. Glycolysis intersects fatty acid oxidation and often directs a signal crosstalk between redox metabolites. Myocardium with ischemia/reperfusion significantly diverts from normal metabolism.

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.
