Summary: The synergistic effect of ZEA and LPS aggravates cytotoxicity by increasing the accumulation of ROS and MDA, decreasing MMP and SOD levels, and reducing GSH levels. Additionally, ZEA and LPS promote cell apoptosis by activating ER stress and suppressing anti-apoptotic proteins.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the harmful effects of folpet on bovine mammary glands and milk production using MAC-T cells. The results showed that folpet exhibited cytotoxicity against MAC-T cells, causing apoptosis and cell death. Furthermore, folpet treatment induced oxidative stress and activated MAPK signaling pathways. This is the first report highlighting the detrimental impacts of folpet on bovine mammary glands and the dairy industry, providing insights into the intracellular mechanisms using MAC-T cells.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of HDL from CKD and HD patients on CD14 expression on PMNLs. The findings showed that HDL increased CD14 surface expression on PMNLs, with a more significant effect seen with HDL from uremic patients. SAA as part of an HDL particle did not increase CD14 expression, and disruption of lipid rafts led to reduced CD14 expression. HDL from healthy subjects decreased Rac1 activity, while HDL from HD patients did not.

Summary: Replacing soybean meal with spirulina in the diets of dairy cows and fattening bulls did not show significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in ruminants. Future studies should focus on evaluating the microbial degradation of spirulina and its bioactive compounds in the rumen to provide more data on potential beneficial health effects in ruminants.

Summary: The study found that CXCR4 is clearly expressed in the ductal epithelial cells of the mammary gland but not in alveolar epithelial cells. Among leukocyte subsets, monocytes displayed the highest percentage of CXCR4-positive cells, while circulating neutrophils showed almost no CXCR4 surface expression.

Summary: The mammary gland consists of epithelial tissue and stroma, with preadipocytes and adipocytes as important components of the stroma. This study investigated the effects of paracrine factors secreted by preadipocytes and adipocytes on the development of bovine mammary epithelial cells. The results showed that factors secreted by fully differentiated adipocytes and preadipocytes can decrease apoptosis and increase the size of spheroids formed by the mammary epithelial cells.

Summary: In this study, we investigated the toxic effects of bifenox on bovine mammary glands using MAC-T cells. Our findings showed that bifenox inhibited cell proliferation, disrupted the cell cycle, and caused disturbances in calcium homeostasis and mitochondrial membrane potential. We also observed hyperactivation of PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling cascades in response to bifenox treatment.

Summary: The mammary gland undergoes repeated cyclic changes throughout the life of mammals. Cattle and buffalo are major milk-producing livestock species that play essential roles in farming communities. The development of the ruminant mammary gland is highly dynamic and involves multiple stages. However, the molecular processes underlying cow udder development have not been thoroughly investigated. This review focuses on the morphological and molecular changes during various stages of cow udder development, providing insights into the physiological differences between cattle and other mammalian species.

Summary: The utilization of PLGA nanoparticles with entrapped fish oil in collagen-based scaffolds for cutaneous wound healing showed promising results in a porcine model. The NP/FO treatment had advantages compared to FO alone and tended to have similar effects to NP/MUP treatment, suggesting it as a suitable alternative for wound treatment.

Summary: Anabolic steroids have significant effects on animal tissues and can cause irreversible morphological and histological changes. The use of these steroids in animal fattening raises concerns about consumer health and there is a need for new detection methods. The abuse of anabolic steroids can result in various side effects, including organ damage, brain atrophy, and behavioral changes. While the use of steroids is permitted in many countries, it is strictly banned in all European Union countries. Serum analysis and tissue structure changes may serve as potential new methods for detecting steroid misuse.

Summary: The route of vaccine delivery significantly affects its immunogenicity, efficacy, and safety. In this study, different routes of delivery were compared in piglets, and it was found that intramuscular administration showed the highest efficacy while dermal administration was slightly less immunogenic. Interestingly, dermal administration provided superior protection effectiveness compared to other routes.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of anabolic steroids on pig muscle tissue, finding that they increase the size and surface area of muscle fibers, as well as significantly increasing the number of satellite cells. These findings suggest that histological parameters could be used as additional detection mechanisms for screening a large number of samples and indicate the potential presence of anabolic steroids in pork meat in the future.

Summary: This study performed a systematic review of the differential expression of sperm microRNAs in bulls related to fertility. A total of 182 unique differentially expressed miRNAs were identified, among which 49 miRNAs were found in common between at least two studies. The results suggest that miRNAs such as miR-10a, -10b, -103, -15b, -122, -125b, -126-5p, -151-5p, -193a-5p, -196a, -27a-5p, and -99b may serve as potential universal biomarkers for assessing the reproductive potential of males.

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence and development of hair loss in outdoor cattle in Sweden. It found a relatively high hair loss rate, with the occurrence of hair loss increasing over time during winters, suggesting a contagious etiology. The study also identified preventative delousing before November, keeping animals clean, and maintaining small group sizes as effective measures to reduce the risk of hair loss, while older age and access to bedding materials increased the risk.

Summary: This study used infrared thermography (IRT) to identify mastitis in Sahiwal cows. The results showed significant differences in the mean values of udder and teat surface temperature between healthy, subclinical mastitis (SCM), and clinical mastitis (CM) cases during different seasons. IRT is an efficient tool for the early identification of subclinical mastitis.

Summary: In this study, the pharmacokinetic behavior of Eprinomectin was studied in two different goat breeds. The results showed no significant differences in plasma concentration between the breeds, but the clearance from the body may vary. High concentration of Eprinomectin in feces is beneficial against gastrointestinal parasites but poses an ecotoxicological risk to the environment.

Summary: This study evaluated the efficacy of fenbendazole and ivermectin on strongyles and Parascaris sp. infecting adult riding horses in different regions of Iran. The results demonstrated varying degrees of resistance of these parasites to both anthelminthics. It emphasizes the urgency of educating horse owners about the importance of a test-and-treatment strategy and suggests evaluating the efficacy of different anthelminthics to choose the most effective treatment in each region.
