Thirty-six male Wistar rats received rations containing 0, 5 or 15% sucrose during 40 days. Significant changes were recorded in the utilization of 6-3H-glucose for the synthesis of lipids and glycogen of the liver. The effect of sucrose feeding on hepatic lipid metabolism depended on the sucrose level: 6-3H-glucose incorporation into liver lipids increased after feeding with the ration containing 5% sucrose, while it was suppressed by 15% sucrose. 6-3H-glucose incorporation into glycogen of the liver was suppressed by both sucrose levels in the ration. U-14C-fructose incorporation into liver glycogen and lipids was not affected by sucrose feeding.

Evolutionary analysis of the DHHCs in Saccharinae.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Center for Genomics and Biotechnology, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, Fuzhou, 350002, Fujian, China.

The DHHC domain genes are crucial for protein lipid modification, a key post-translational modification influencing membrane targeting, subcellular trafficking, and protein function. Despite their significance, the DHHC gene family in Saccharinae remains understudied. Here, we identified 32 (110 alleles), 28, 53, and 48 DHHC genes in Saccharum spontaneum Np-X, Erianthus rufipilus, Miscanthus sinensis, and Miscanthus lutarioriparius, respectively.

Dihydroporphyrin iron (DH-Fe) is a novel plant growth regulator that plays significant roles in plant stress resistance. We found that is extremely sensitive to low temperature (LT) with a threshold of 25°C. To evaluate whether and how DH-Fe alleviates LT stress in , different DH-Fe concentrations (0, 10, 20, and 40 μg·L) were applied to estimate its effects on C and N metabolism and antioxidative capacity in grown under 20°C.

Paclitaxel (PTX) is a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug, however, one of its major adverse effects is chronic neuropathic pain, with the incidence being higher in women than in men. The neurobiological mechanisms behind this sex difference are still largely unclear, and the endocannabinoid system, which exhibits sexual dimorphism and plays a key role in pain regulation, is a promising area for further studies. The present study aimed to characterise pain-, cognition-, anxiety-, and depression-related behaviours in male and female rats following PTX administration, and associated alterations in the endocannabinoid system.

Epididymal bull sperm selection by Percoll® density-gradient centrifugation prior to conventional or ultra-rapid freezing enhances post-thaw sperm quality.

Cryobiology

January 2025

Laboratorio de Biotecnología de la Reproducción Animal, Facultad de Ciencias Agropecuarias, Universidad de Cuenca, EC010205, Cuenca, Ecuador.

This study evaluated the effectiveness of Percoll® density gradient centrifugation (Percoll-DGC) for selecting bull epididymal sperm prior to conventional slow (CS) or ultra-rapid (UR) freezing and its effects on sperm quality. Fifteen pooled samples from 30 epididymides (2 different samples/pool) of 15 bulls were split into two aliquots assigned to either CS or UR freezing. Samples were either selected using Percoll-DGC (40/80 %) or left non-selected (control), resulting in four pre-freezing treatments: Percoll-CS, Control-CS, Percoll-UR, and Control-UR.

Introduction: The study's primary goal is to investigate differences in postprandial glycaemic response (PPGR) to beverages with varying glycaemic index (i.e. low and medium) between breast cancer survivors (BCS) with chronic pain and healthy pain-free controls (HC).
