- The Min pig, a representative northern Chinese indigenous breed, carries a unique ancestral background shaped by the historical phylogeography of Northeast Asia. This study aimed to dissect the population structure, temporal genetic divergence, and ancestral composition of Min pigs, trace their evolutionary origin, and identify trait-linked functional genes, providing information regarding their evolutionary history and conservation. We analyzed 61 Min pigs sampled across nearly 20 years and 701 reference pigs comprising other Chinese indigenous breeds, Western commercial lines, and Chinese wild boars, using PCA, NJ phylogenetic analysis, Admixture, TreeMix, D-statistic, f4-ratio, and combined selection signature scans (sliding-window F, XP-EHH, and π-ratio). Clear genetic stratification was observed among Min pig subpopulations, reflecting long-term divergence under natural and artificial selection. PCA and Admixture (K = 2-4) separated East Asian indigenous and Western ancestral components, verifying an admixed Northeast Asian origin with a dominant ancient East Asian component and a Western component. Compared with early-2000s Min pigs, contemporary individuals are genetically closer to Western breeds and exhibit a more scattered structure due to shifted ancestral component proportions, further confirmed by D-statistic and f4-ratio values. We identified 321 differentiated SNP loci based on the Animal QTL database, corresponding to core candidate genes (AKT3, ACACA, MAP3K5, FGFR4, C3, and SERPINC1) enriched for meat quality, growth, reproduction, immunity, energy metabolism, and MAPK/PI3K-Akt/AMPK pathways. This study reveals Min pigs' admixed origin and temporal divergence, clarifying their Northeast Asian evolution and providing molecular markers for genetic monitoring and conservation. - Source: PubMed
Jin LongDong FengyiFeng ChengyueNing JiayiZhang XiaoranLiu WuyangChen ChangyiWang DaliBie LuyaoBai ChunyanSun HaoSun Boxing - Endometriosis (EMs) is one of the most common gynecologic diseases, and the roles of ferroptosis in EMs have not been fully clarified. The induction of ferroptosis has been demonstrated to inhibit the growth of ectopic lesions in EMs. Although acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1), the rate-limiting enzyme for fatty acid biosynthesis, has been shown to regulate ferroptosis, the detailed mechanism involved has not been fully elucidated. In addition, the role of ACC1, encoded by ACACA, in EMs remains unclear. Thus, the present study aimed to explore the role of ACC1 in ferroptosis and the potential therapeutic effect of the ferroptosis inducer the ferroptosis inducer 56 (FIN56) in EMs. - Source: PubMed

Zeng ChengZhu JingwenLu RuihuiWu PeiliLi XinLi FangyuanPeng ChaoZhou YingfangXue Qing - This study investigated the molecular characteristics and functions of buffalo prolactin (PRL) in the lactation. The buffalo gene's complete coding sequence (CDS) is 690 bp, encoding 229 amino acids, with structure and function highly consistent with other Bovidae species. expression was significantly higher in the buffalo mammary gland during lactation compared to the non-lactating period, highlighting its crucial role in lactation. overexpression in buffalo mammary epithelial cells (BuMECs) promotes cell proliferation and increases the casein secretion and triglyceride (TAG) accumulation. This occurs through the activation of the JAK2-STAT5 (cell differentiation, casein () gene transcription, and lipid factor transcription), PI3K-AKT-mTOR (cell growth, milk protein gene translation, and lipid factor activation), and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK; cell proliferation and stress mitigation) signaling pathways. Specifically, overexpression upregulated the mRNA expression of genes in these pathways, such as , , , , , , and , while decreasing and . Overexpression also increased the expression of cell cycle genes (, , /), and enhanced cell viability. Furthermore, overexpression led to increased expression of casein genes (, ) and milk-fat-synthesis-related genes (, , , , ). Population genetic analysis identified five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the buffalo CDS, with c.34C T and c.430T C being non-synonymous substitutions that were predicted to affect protein function. This research provides a theoretical foundation for genetic interventions aimed at improving buffalo lactation traits. - Source: PubMed

Huang LigeFan XinyangTeng XiaohongQian LindongBao ZhipengMiao Yongwang - This study evaluated whether chlorogenic acid (CGA) attenuates hepatic injury in broilers under high stocking density (HSD). A total of 216 experimental male Arbor Acres broilers were assigned to normal density without CGA (ND; 14 birds/m), high density without CGA (HD; 22 birds/m), normal density with 0.1% CGA (NDCGA), or high density with 0.1% CGA (HDCGA) groups, with six cages per treatment. CGA was supplied from day 7 to 42. At 42 d, live-weight densities were 35.00, 50.25, 34.48, and 49.38 kg/m, respectively. Compared with their corresponding normal-density groups, the high-density groups had lower body weights at 21, 28, 35, and 42 d, and lower average daily gain (ADG) during days 21-42 ( < 0.05), whereas CGA did not significantly alter body weight or ADG within either stocking density ( > 0.05). At 35 and 42 d, the HD group had lower hepatic T-AOC, SOD, and CAT activities and higher MDA content than the ND group ( < 0.05). Compared with the HD group, the HDCGA group had higher T-AOC and CAT activities and lower MDA content at both ages, and higher SOD activity at 42 d ( < 0.05). Qualitative histological and transcript-level alterations were evident at 28 d. Compared with HD, the HDCGA group showed treatment-associated shifts in AMPK, SREBP1, ACACA, PLA2G4A, COX-2, ALOX5, and NOX5 mRNA abundance ( < 0.05). Under the experimental conditions, 0.1% CGA was associated with partial attenuation of HSD-related hepatic oxidative, lipid-metabolic, and inflammatory disturbances without a significant growth response. - Source: PubMed
