One of the main characteristics tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit ripening is a massive accumulation carotenoids (mainly lycopene), which may contribute to nutrient quality and its role in chemoprevention. Previous studies have shown that ethylene (ET) plays central promoting ripening. In this study, jasmonic acid (JA) controlling lycopene fruits was analysed by measuring content expression levels biosynthetic genes JA-deficient mutants (spr2 def1) 35S::prosystemin transgenic line...
This study aimed to evaluate the individual and combined effects of chemically protected sodium butyrate (CSB) xylo-oligosaccharide (XOS) on performance, anti-inflammatory antioxidant capacity, intestinal morphology microbiota broilers. A total 280 one-day-old Arbor Acres broilers were randomly distributed into 5 treatments: basal diet (CON), supplemented with 100 mg/kg aureomycin 8 enramycin (ABX), 1000 CSB (CSB), XOS (XOS), mixture (MIX), respectively. On d 21, ABX, CSB, MIX decreased feed...
The aim of this paper was to investigate the effect heat stress on regulation appetite-associated genes in laying hens. Forty eight hens were randomly divided into two circumstances: high (31 ± 1.5°C; relative humidity, 82.0 2.2%) or normal (20 2°C, control; 60.1 4.5%) ambient environment. Heat decreased body weight gain (P < 0.01), feed intake rate 0.05), average egg mass production shell thickness and efficiency 0.05). High temperature plasma uric acid significantly increased mRNA levels...
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) (a microbial fermentation production in the rabbit gut) have an important role many physiological processes, which may be related to reduced body fat of rabbits. In present experiment, we study function acetate major SCFA on metabolism. Ninety rabbits (40 days age) were randomly divided into three groups: a sham control group (injection saline for four days); experiencing subcutaneous injection (2 g/kg BM per day, one each acetate); and pair-fed treatment...
To explore the effect of selenium-enriched yeast (SeY) on intestinal barrier functions in weaned pigs upon oxidative stress, a <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M1"><mml:mn>2</mml:mn><mml:mo>×</mml:mo><mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:math> factorial design was utilized and thirty-two were randomly assigned into four groups. Pigs with or without exposure to stress (diquat challenge) fed basal diet SeY-containing diet. The trial lasted for 21 days, result showed that SeY...
An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary energy level on performance and immune function stressed broiler chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus). A total 96 three-day-old male (Ross × Ross) were divided into two groups. One group received a high (HE) diet other low (LE) for 7 days. At 5 days age, from each further sub-groups one following treatments 3 days: (1) subcutaneous injection corticosterone, twice per day (CORT group; 2 mg CORT/kg BW in corn oil) (2) oil,...
The pro-apoptotic Bax and Bak proteins are considered central to apoptosis, yet apoptosis occurs in their absence. Here, we asked whether the mitochondrial protein VDAC1 mediates independently of Bax/Bak. Upon screening a fungal secondary metabolite library for compounds inducing Bax/Bak-deficient mouse embryonic fibroblasts, identified cyathin-R, new cyathane diterpenoid compound able activate absence Bax/Bak via promotion oligomerization that cytochrome c release....
The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of copper supplementation on lipid metabolism in rabbits. Our showed dietary addition (5-45 mg/kg) increased body mass gain, but decreased fat and liver weights compared with those control group (P < 0.05). Copper (45 significantly skeletal muscle weight, inhibited cytoplasmic accumulation liver, adipose tissue Compared group, plasma triglyceride levels very low density lipoprotein treatment gene expression carnitine...
This study aimed to investigate the effects of different acute high ambient temperatures on redox status in liver broilers. A total 144 35-day-old Arbor Acres broilers were randomly divided into 4 groups with 6 replicates birds each and subsequently distributed environment chambers for heat stress. The temperature set 26°C (control), 29°C, 32°C, 35°C h, respectively. Various indicators tested evaluate hepatic status. Then, hallmarks hepatocellular antioxidant apoptosis measured by qRT-PCR...
Copper serves as a co-factor for host of metalloenzymes, particularly cytochrome c oxidase (COX). Although it is known that impaired COX function can lead to the excessive accumulation reactive oxygen species (ROS), mechanisms underlying how copper depletion leads cell damage are poorly understood. Here, we have investigated role during ferroptosis. The bathocuproinedisulfonic (BCS) treatment depolarized mitochondrial membrane potential, increased total cellular ROS levels, stimulated...
Summary Silicon oxide and sodium silicate were investigated as potential agents for the control of postharvest pink rot in Chinese cantaloupe (cultivar Yujingxing) caused by Trichothecium roseum . In vitro tests showed that silicate, when added to potato dextrose agar, was effective suppressing radial growth pathogen on medium, whereas silicon ineffective. The effectiveness increased with concentration, fungus completely inhibited at 100 m When melons dipped solutions, both significantly ( P...
Glucocorticoids (GCs) induce profound hyperphagia in birds. However, the neuronal regulatory network underlying GC-provoked is unclear. To determine whether any cross talk occurs among hypothalamic GC receptors (GRs), AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), and GCs regulation of appetite, we performed an intracerebroventricular injection mifepristone (a GR inhibitor) compound C (an AMPK on GC-treated male chicks. The results indicate that central administration increased expression neuropeptide...
Background and Purpose Increasing evidence has suggested cadmium (Cd), as an inducer of ROS, is a potential pathogenic factor in human neurodegenerative diseases. Thus, it important to find effective interventions for Cd‐induced oxidative stress the CNS. Here, we have studied effects celastrol, plant‐derived triterpene, on ROS production cell death neuronal cells, induced by Cd. Experimental Approach PC12, SH‐SY5Y cells primary murine neurons were used study celastrol neuroprotection against...
Flavonoids have been reported to exhibit prooxidant cytotoxicity against cancer cells, but the underlying mechanism is still poorly understood. Here we investigated potential that p53-inducible gene 3 (PIG3), a NADPH:quinone oxidoreductase, mediated of flavonoids on human hepatoma HepG2 cells. The results showed (apigenin, luteolin, kaempferol, and quercetin) inhibited growth cells in dosage- time-dependent manner, induced morphological changes characteristic apoptosis We also found...
The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of Artemisia argyi on production performance and intestinal barrier rabbits. Weaned Hyla rabbits (30 d, n = 160) similar body weight were divided into 4 groups (40 per treatment), they fed a control diet or an experimental supplemented with 3%, 6%, 9% A. argyi. results showed that dietary supplementation did not affect rabbits' food intake gain regardless inclusion level but decreased diarrhea rate index (P < 0.05). Dietary addition...
This study elucidated the function role of dietary selenium-enriched yeast (SeY) supplementation on growth performance, immune function, and antioxidant capacity in weaned pigs exposure to oxidative stress. Thirty-two similarity weight were randomly divided into four treatments: (1) nonchallenged control, (2) control+SeY, (3) control+diquat, (4) control+SeY+diquat. The period experiment was 21 days; day 16, injected with diquat or sterile saline. Results revealed that stress notably...
