Abstract β-Lactoglobulin (BLG) is a major goat’s milk allergen that absent in human milk. Engineered endonucleases, including transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) and zinc-finger nucleases, enable targeted genetic modification livestock. In this study, TALEN-mediated gene knockout followed by knock-in were used to generate BLG goats as mammary gland bioreactors for large-scale production of lactoferrin (hLF). We introduced precise modifications the goat genome at...

Electroacupuncture (EA) can relieve various pains. However, its mechanism in terms of the transcriptome is still not well-known. To explore full profile EA-induced molecular modification central nerve system, three twins goats were selected for a match-paired experiment: EA stimulation (60 Hz, 30 min) and none-EA (control). Goats group showed an increased (p < 0.05) nociceptive threshold compared with control goats. Experimental sacrificed at 4 h experiment, periaqueductal grays harvested...

Maternal regulatory factors endow the oocyte with developmental competence in vivo, which might be absent current vitro maturation (IVM) systems, thereby compromising quality. In present study, by employing RNA sequencing data analysis, we expect to identify potential contributing support porcine through binding their receptors on oolemma. Here, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), and Wingless-type MMTV integration site family member 5A...

Influenza viruses are responsible for severe respiratory tract infections of individuals and may cause pandemics with a high risk mortality morbidity. Although vaccination is primary means prevention influenza virus infections, poor vaccine performance or inadequate immune responses limits the efficacy current vaccines raises question regarding whether better correlates protection procedures should be performed. Here, we want to evaluate mixed polysaccharides (MPs) derived from shiitake...

Abstract Antifungal‐resistant dermatophytes (ARD) infection is a hotspot issue in clinical microbiology and the dermatology field. Trichophyton indotineae as dominant species of dermatophyte with terbinafine‐resistance or multidrug resistance, easy to be missed detection clinically, which brings severe challenges diagnosis treatment. ARD cases have emerged China, it predicts risk transmission among human. Based on existing medical evidence research data, Mycology Group Combination...

Tumors occurring along the hypothalamus-pituitary axis receive axonal projection from neuroendocrine neurons, but it remains unclear whether neuronal activity drives tumor expansion. Craniopharyngioma is a common suprasellar with propensity for invading hypothalamus, leading to devastating endocrine and metabolic disorders. Here, we developed two autochthonous animal models that faithfully recapitulate molecular pathology, clinical manifestations, transcriptomic profiles of papillary...

Endometritis, which is usually caused by bacterial infection, characterized high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and a infertility rate. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) has been recognized as potent amplifier inflammatory reactions. Studies have demonstrated reduced responses mortality rates animals with infection due to the blocking TREM-1 expression. However, whether deficiency could alleviate reaction in endometritis still unclear. Here, knock-out (Trem-1-/-...

Numerous studies have verified that electroacupuncture (EA) can relieve neuropathic pain through a variety of mechanisms. Synaptotagmin 1 (Syt-1), synaptic vesicle protein for regulating exocytosis neurotransmitters, was found to be affected by EA stimulation. However, the roles Syt-1 in and EA-induced analgesic effect remain unclear. Here, on nociception assessed an antibody blockade, siRNA silencing, lentivirus-mediated overexpression spinal rats with spared nerve injury (SNI). used...
