Muscle growth differences in Lijiang pigs revealed by ATAC-seq multi-omics.
Front Vet Sci
August 2024
College of Animal Science and Technology, Yunnan Agricultural University, Kunming, China.
As one of the largest tissues in the animal body, skeletal muscle plays a pivotal role in the production and quality of pork. Consequently, it is of paramount importance to investigate the growth and developmental processes of skeletal muscle. Lijiang pigs, which naturally have two subtypes, fast-growing and slow-growing, provide an ideal model for such studies by eliminating breed-related influences.

September 2024
Department of Clinical Science and Services, Royal Veterinary College, Hatfield, UK.
Background: Domestic rabbit breeds vary substantially from the wild rabbit body type. However, little is known about how the conformation of pet rabbits influences their health.
Methods: Data were extracted from VetCompass anonymised clinical records of rabbits under UK primary veterinary care during 2019.
Population Pharmacokinetics and Absolute Oral Bioavailability of Lasalocid after Single Intravenous and Intracrop Administration in Laying Hens.
J Agric Food Chem
June 2024
Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Wroclaw University of Environmental and Life Sciences, 50-375 Wroclaw, Poland.
Article Synopsis
- - Lasalocid sodium is an ionophore agent used in poultry as a coccidiostat, but it poses risks for drug residue in eggs, mainly affecting laying hens due to feed contamination.
- - Different breeds of hens, like Isa Brown and Green-legged Partridge, show significant differences in egg production and may also impact how lasalocid is absorbed and eliminated in their bodies.
- - The study aimed to establish pharmacokinetic parameters for lasalocid in laying hens, using a crossover design, and found that the absorption rate is low (36%) and varies based on the hen breed.
'All I do is fight fires': Qualitative exploration of UK veterinarians' attitudes towards and experiences of pre-purchase consultations regarding brachycephalic dogs.
Vet Rec
April 2024
Clinical Science and Services, Royal Veterinary College, Hatfield, UK.
Background: Demand for brachycephalic dogs has dramatically increased over the past decade, despite growing evidence of strong associations between brachycephaly and severe, chronic disease. Positive post-purchase attitudes of owners towards brachycephalic dogs are highly intractable, facilitated by normalisation of breed-related disease and strong dog-owner bonds. Veterinarian-led pre-purchase consultations (PPCs) have been promoted as an opportunity to influence acquisition decisions regarding brachycephalic dogs.

Monitoring estrogens, progestogens, and relaxin plasma concentration can be important for determining pregnancies at risk of failure in mares. However, significant breed-related differences in values of reproductive hormones are known, and data concerning coldblooded (CB) mares are missing. The aim of the study was to determine and compare serum relaxin, estrone sulphate (E1S), estradiol-17β (E2), and progestogens concentration in pregnant CB and hot-blood (HB) mares during the second half of gestation.
