INTRODUCTION: To decrease antibiotic resistance, their use as growth promoters in the agricultural sector has been largely abandoned. This may lead to decreased health due to infectious disease or microbiome changes leading to gut inflammation.

Chicken farming is critical for future food security, yet there is still a need for improving animal welfare and optimised feeding strategies. HoloFood will explore the interaction and impact of the microbiome together with the host (animal) in response to different feeding strategies already imp...

In recent years, the immunomodulatory function of adipose tissue has attracted much attention; however, the mechanism of steady-state regulation of the immune microenvironment in adipose tissue remains unclear. Catecholamines (CAs) activate adipocyte surface β3-AR to promote lipid metabolism, and...
Chicken feathers constitute a major waste in poultry processing due to their resistance to degradation. Microbial degradation offers a promising solution for enhancing the utilization of feather waste. However, the metabolic mechanisms underlying microbial feather degradation remain poorly unders...
BACKGROUND: Chicken meat has become a major source of protein for human consumption. However, the quality of the meat is not yet under control, especially since pH values that are too low or too high are often observed. In an attempt to get a better understanding of the genetic a...
