Studies have shown that intramuscular adipogenesis and fibrogenesis may concomitantly occur in skeletal muscle of beef cattle. Thus, we hypothesized the discrepancy fat content from Nellore Angus was associated with differences during finishing phase. To test our hypothesis, longissimus samples (n = 6; BW 372.5 ± 37.3 kg) 382.8 23.9 cattle were collected for analysis gene protein expression, quantification collagen. Least-squares means estimated effect Breed considered at P ≤ 0.05. A greater...
<title>Abstract</title> Under the current global biodiversity crisis, there is a need for automated and non-invasive monitoring techniques that are able to gather large amounts of information cost-effectively at scales. One such technique passive acoustic monitoring, which commonly coupled with automatic identification animal species based on their sound. Automated sound analyses usually require training detection algorithms. These algorithms annotated datasets mark occurrence sounds...
Este estudo investigou como as tecnologias emergentes poderiam ser integradas ao ensino de matemática no século XXI, visando à superação dos desafios pedagógicos e melhoria do processo aprendizagem. O objetivo geral foi analisar possibilidades limitações uso dessas da matemática, destacando os impactos sobre o desempenho alunos a prática pedagógica professores. A pesquisa natureza bibliográfica, baseada em fontes acadêmicas artigos, livros dissertações, com foco análises teóricas tema. Os...
Os ambientes costeiros compreendem alguns dos ecossistemas mais vulneráveis do globo, com abundância e diversidade de recursos naturais. impactos ambientais sobre esses têm aumentado à medida que as cidades costeiras crescem os poluentes gerados pela população são descartados indevidamente. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo a caracterização delimitação áreas potencialmente impactadas por resíduos efluentes dentro limites da Zona Costeira Amapá. Para isso, foram realizadas etapas...
Feed efficiency is one of the most important parameters that affect beef production costs. The energy metabolism skeletal muscle greatly contributes to variations in feed efficiency. However, information regarding differences proteins involved cattle divergently identified for scarce. In this study, we aimed investigate Nellore cattle, low and high residual intake using a proteomics approach. We further assessed expression candidate microRNAs as possible mechanisms controlling biosynthesis...
Abstract BACKGROUND Vitamin A has been reported as a factor influencing marbling deposition in meat from animals. Although the mechanisms by which vitamin regulates lipid metabolism mature adipocytes are already well‐established, information regarding molecular underlying effects of on regulation intramuscular fat beef cattle still remains limited. The present study aimed to assess involved supplemented with during fattening phase using proteomic approach. RESULTS supplementation decreased...
SUMMARY The present study aimed to explore the molecular factors underlying differences in Calpain/Calpastatin proteolytic system Nellore and Angus cattle. Longissimus muscle samples were collected ( n = 6; body weight (BW) 373 ± 37·3 kg) BW 383 23·9 cattle at slaughter for analysis of gene protein expression, Calpastatin enzyme activity. Additionally, myofibrillar fragmentation index was used quantify extension proteolysis longissimus samples. A greater observed skeletal compared with...
Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes death worldwide, and evidence indicates a correlation between inflammatory process cardiac dysfunction. Selective inhibitors cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme are not recommended for long-term use because potentially severe side effects to heart. Considering this frequent prescribing commercial celecoxib, present study analyzed cellular molecular 1 10 µM celecoxib in cell culture model. After 24-h incubation, reduced viability dose-dependent...
This study used qRT-PCR to examine variation in the expression of 13 myogenes during muscle development four prenatal periods (21, 40, 70 and 90 days post-insemination) commercial (the three-way Duroc, Landrace Large-White cross) local Piau pig breeds that differ mass. There was no CHD8, EID2B, HIF1AN, IKBKB, RSPO3, SOX7 SUFU genes at various ages or between breeds. The MAP2K1 RBM24 showed similar pigs but greater (p < 0.05) least one period. Pair-wise comparisons each breed only CSRP3,...
Crude glycerin has been used as an alternative energy source in animal feeding and can thus change both the animal’s performance levels of gene expression related to production process antioxidant system, since effect depends on its degree purity diet. The aim this study was evaluate crude inclusion (0, 6 12%) diet characteristics mRNA abundance genes associated with mitochondrial function (uncoupling protein (UCP), cytochrome C oxidase subunit III (COX III) adenine nucleotide transporter...
Comprehending mechanisms controlling corpus luteum (CL) angiogenesis and apoptosis in pregnant sows is essential to understand the physiological role of these processes CL function, progesterone production consequently conceptus development prenatal mortality. from 54 two genetic groups, a commercial line (COM) local Piau breed (LPB), were obtained for gene expression (n = 3 COM; n 6 LPB), histological protein analysis divided six gestational ages (seven, 15, 30, 45, 60 90 days). We observed...
Since pre- and postnatal development are programmed during early prenatal life, studies addressing the complete transcriptional landscape organogenesis needed. Therefore, we aimed to disentangle differentially expressed (DE) genes between fetuses (at 35 days old) embryos 25 through RNA-sequencing analysis using pig as model. In total, 1705 were DE, including top DE IBSP, COL6A6, HBE1, HBZ, HBB, NEUROD6 genes, which associated with developmental transition from fetuses, such ossification,...
This is an accepted article with a DOI pre-assigned that not yet published.We aimed to assess the impact of vitamin A supplementation in beef cows at late gestation on intramuscular adipogenesis offspring. Thirty pregnant were randomly assigned control group (CONTROL, n = 15) fed diet containing 4.1 KIU per kg, and supplemented (VITA, 12.2 kg. The treatment application occurred from 180 days until parturition. Calves biopsied within 10 age collect skeletal muscle samples for assessing gene...
