Anim Biosci

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Animal Genetics, Breeding and Reproduction in the Plateau Mountainous Region, Ministry of Education, Guizhou Province/Guiyang City/Huaxi District, China.

Objective: This study aimed to identify polymorphisms in the gene encoding the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase 1, HMGCS1, and analyze their association with slaughter characteristics, meat quality, and organ coefficients in Guizhou white goats.

Methods: A total of 153 twelve-month-old Guizhou white goats (78 male and 75 female) were included in the study. Slaughter characteristics, meat quality, and organ coefficients were assessed.

Serial assessment of coronary artery inflammation using cardiac CT in anthracycline chemotherapy for breast cancer.

Eur Radiol

January 2025

Department of Diagnostic Radiology, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kumamoto University, 1-1-1 Honjo, Chuo-ku, Kumamoto, 860-8556, Japan.

Objectives: There is limited evidence of the pericoronary fat attenuation index (FAI) as an imaging marker to assess cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity. We aimed to measure FAI in four consecutive coronary CT angiography (CTA) scans before and 3, 6, and 12 months after anthracycline treatment in patients with breast cancer to determine trends in dynamic changes in FAI after treatment.

Methods: We performed a post hoc analysis of a prospective study (between August 2019 and July 2020) in which anthracycline-induced myocardial injury was evaluated using cardiac CT.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) leads to a more rapid development of DM cardiomyopathy (dbCM) and progression to heart failure in women than men. Combination of high-fat diet (HFD) and freshly-injected streptozotocin (STZ) has been widely used for DM induction, however emerging data shows that anomer-equilibrated STZ produces an early onset and robust DM model. We designed a novel protocol utilising a combination of multiple doses of anomer-equilibrated STZ injections and HFD to develop a stable murine DM model featuring dbCM analogous to humans.
