Effects of Extract on Growth Performance, Nutrient Apparent Digestibility, Serum Parameters, and Fecal Microbiota in Finishing Pigs.
Animals (Basel)
December 2024
Hunan Agricultural Product Processing Institute, Hunan Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Changsha 410125, China.
This study investigated the effects of extract (FAE) on growth performance, nutrient apparent digestibility, serum parameters, fecal microbial composition, and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in finishing pigs. In total, 75 Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire pigs (equally divided by sex), with an initial body weight of 79.49 ± 4.

The mechanisms governing food intake and appetite regulation in the brain are intricate and vary across different animal species. Dopamine and cholecystokinin (CCK) are recognized as two critical neurotransmitters involved in the control of food intake; however, the potential interactions between these neurotransmitters remain poorly understood. Consequently, this study aimed to investigate the interactions between central CCK and the dopaminergic system in the feeding behavior of layer-type chickens.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how Weichang'an pill (WCAP) affects functional dyspepsia (FD) in rats, focusing on brain-gut peptides and gut microbiota as potential treatment mechanisms.
- Researchers created an FD rat model and divided the rats into different treatment groups, including those receiving WCAP and a control for comparison, then measured gastrointestinal motility and gut microbiota composition.
- Results showed that WCAP improved FD symptoms by enhancing gastric emptying, regulating brain-gut peptide levels, and restoring gut microbiota balance, suggesting it could be an effective treatment for FD.
Linking GERD and the Peptide Bombesin: A New Therapeutic Strategy to Modulate Inflammatory, Oxidative Stress and Clinical Biochemistry Parameters.
Antioxidants (Basel)

Department of Chemical, Biological, Pharmaceutical and Environmental Sciences, University of Messina, 98166 Messina, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- GERD is a common stomach problem that affects many people and causes changes in the esophagus due to inflammation.
- Researchers studied a substance called bombesin to see if it could help reduce inflammation and stomach pain in mice with GERD.
- The results showed that bombesin helped lower pain and improve stomach conditions, suggesting it could be a good treatment option for people with GERD.
Both pathogen and host dynamically adapt pH responses along the intestinal tract during enteric bacterial infection.
PLoS Biol

Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada.
Enteric pathogens navigate distinct regional microenvironments within the intestine that cue important adaptive behaviors. We investigated the response of Citrobacter rodentium, a model of human pathogenic Escherichia coli infection in mice, to regional gastrointestinal pH. We found that small intestinal pH (4.
