Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the impact of replacing animal protein with black soybeans on metabolic health in individuals with prediabetes and obesity, focusing on advanced glycation end products (dAGEs).
  • A 16-week randomized trial involved participants consuming either pork or black soymilk, which led to a significant reduction in dAGE intake and improvements in oxidative stress and gut microbiota health.
  • Results indicated that black soymilk consumption lowered blood AGE levels and oxidative stress markers compared to pork, suggesting potential dietary changes to improve metabolic disorders.

This study explored the effects of long-term cold stress on aortic vascular function in guinea pigs. Research Methods: Hartley guinea pigs (n=32) were divided into following groups: atherosclerosis (AS), cold stress (CS), and menthol-stimulated (M) and control (C). On days 1, 15, 30, 45, and 60, guinea pigs in the AS, CS, and M groups were intraperitoneally injected with bovine serum albumin.

Article Synopsis
  • Bladder cancer primarily impacts men with higher rates of incidence and mortality, highlighting the need for better predictive models in treatment.
  • This study presents a novel 3D in vitro tumor model using decellularized pig bladders, which effectively replicates the tumor microenvironment and overcomes limitations of traditional 2D cultures.
  • The model demonstrated efficacy in drug screening with significant predictive reliability (83.3%) for treatment responses, outperforming conventional 2D systems.

Assisted reproductive technology has revolutionized our ability to genetically manipulate, maintain and rederive laboratory animals of biomedical importance; manipulate animal reproduction or genetics to boost production of farm animals; and improve human reproductive health. The media for in vitro manipulation and the culture of embryos play a critical role in the development of assisted reproductive technology. In this review, the evolution of culture media supporting embryo development in vitro from selected animal species, laboratory animals (mice and rats) and farm animals (pigs and cattle), will be discussed with a focus on the development of chemically defined media.
