Background: With the pursuit of rapid intramuscular fat deposition in beef cattle, basal diets have increasingly shifted toward grain-based, energy-dense formulations. However, high-starch dietary regimens may induce host metabolic dysregulation, which is closely linked to both ruminal microbial ...
Immune stress in broilers can cause severe economic losses, chlorogenic acid is an effective plant extract for alleviating immune stress. This study investigates the effect of chlorogenic acid on the intestinal microbiota and metabolites of broilers under immune stress. 312 broilers were randomly...
OBJECTIVE: Idiopathic epilepsy (IE) is the most common chronic neurological disease in dogs, and an established natural animal model for human epilepsy types with genetic and unknown etiology. However, the metabolic pathways underlying IE remain largely unknown. METHODS: Plasma samples of healthy...
BACKGROUND: Large-scale farms struggle to effectively address summer heat stress (HS) in dairy goats, which impairs spermatogenesis and reduces reproductive performance by compromising gut and reproductive organ health in male animals. Although Clostridium butyricum (CB) and Enterococcus faecium ...
Leg ulcers are among the most burdensome complications of sickle cell disease (SCD), yet the molecular determinants underlying ulcer susceptibility and recurrence remain incompletely characterized. We performed untargeted plasma lipidomics by LC–MS in 129 individuals with SCD from the REDS-III Br...
