UnknownDistinctive genes determine different intramuscular fat and muscle fiber ratios of the longissimus dorsi muscles in Jinhua and landrace pigs.
Meat quality is determined by properties such as carcass color, tenderness and drip loss. These properties are closely associated with meat composition, which includes the types of muscle fiber and content of intramuscular fat (IMF). Muscle fibers are the main contributors to meat mass, while IMF no...

UnknownInsights into the Protein Differentiation Mechanism between Jinhua Fatty Ham and Lean Ham through Label-Free Proteomics.
Jinhua lean ham (LH), a dry-cured ham made from the defatted hind legs of pigs, has become increasingly popular among consumers with health concerns. However, the influence of fat removal on the quality of Jinhua ham is still not fully understood. Therefore, a label-free proteomics strategy was used...

UnknownA near telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of the Jinhua pig: enabling more accurate genetic research.

Background

Pigs are crucial sources of meat and protein, valuable animal models, and potential donors for xenotransplantation. However, the existing reference genome for pigs is incomplete, with thousands of segments and centromeres and telomeres missing, which limits our understanding of th...

UnknownGut Microbiota Is a Major Contributor to Adiposity in Pigs.
Different breeds of pigs vary greatly in their propensity for adiposity. Gut microbiota is known to play an important role in modulating host physiology including fat metabolism. However, the relative contribution of gut microbiota to lipogenic characteristics of pigs remains elusive. In this study,...

UnknownDisrupted Microbiota of Colon Results in Worse Immunity and Metabolism in Low-Birth-Weight Jinhua Newborn Piglets.
The Jinhua pig is well known in China due to its delicious meat. However, because of large litter size, low birth weight always happens. This experiment used this breed as a model to research bacterial evidence leading to growth restriction and provide a possible solution linked to probiotics. In th...

UnknownPhysicochemical property, volatile flavor quality, and microbial community composition of Jinhua fatty ham and lean ham: A comparative study.
The physicochemical property, volatile flavor compounds, and microbial community structure of Jinhua fatty ham (FH) and lean ham (LH) were investigated and compared by high-throughput sequencing and HS-GC-IMS. Results showed that FH had higher pH and slightly lighter and yellower color than LH. Mean...

UnknownTranscriptome analysis reveals differential gene expression in intramuscular adipose tissues of Jinhua and Landrace pigs.
Meat is a rich source of protein, fatty acids and carbohydrates for human needs. In addition to necessary nutrients, high fat contents in pork increase the tenderness and juiciness of the meat, featuring diverse application in various dishes. This study investigated the transcriptomic profiles of in...

UnknownAn updated Pig Haplotype Reference Panel (PHARP 4.0) comprising 13,298 haplotypes.
High-throughput genome sequencing and genotyping have significantly accelerated genetic research. However, the high cost of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) remains a barrier to large-scale studies like genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and genomic prediction. Genotype imputation offers a cost-eff...

UnknownLung protective ventilation in patients undergoing major surgery: a systematic review protocol.

Introduction

There is growing interest in the use of low tidal volume ventilation in patients undergoing general anaesthesia. However, its potential benefit has long been debated and conflicting results have been reported. We describe here the protocol of a systematic review and meta-analysi...

UnknownSurgery versus neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery in locally advanced gastrointestinal tract cancers.

Background

Gastrointestinal tract cancer is still prevalent in the world. Localized GI cancer treatment has greatly relied on surgery, even for locally advanced diseases.

Aim and objectives

The goal of this study was to assess the prognosis of direct surgery and neoadjuvant chemoradio...
