Summary: This study investigated the toxic effects of bisphenol A (BPA) in an experimental animal model using a metabolomics approach, and examined the protective effects of resveratrol (RSV) against BPA-induced disturbances. The results showed that BPA impaired amino acid and lipid metabolism, induced oxidative stress and altered gene expression in mice. However, treatment with RSV alleviated the toxic effects of BPA.

Summary: This study examined the effects of 75% intestinal resection on whole-body arginine synthesis in piglets and found adaptive changes in intestinal arginine synthesis that may help preserve overall arginine synthesis in neonates. The intestine plays a crucial role in arginine synthesis, particularly in neonates at risk for short bowel syndrome.

Summary: The study suggests that urea can be used as an alternative nitrogen source to ammonium sulfate without significant effects on growth and lipid production of Yarrowia lipolytica strains. There were no coherent changes in the transcriptome indicating that metabolic engineering efforts using ammonium sulfate may also apply to urea usage.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of dietary phospholipids on growth performance, fatty acid composition, and lipid metabolism in juvenile hybrid grouper. The results showed that dietary phospholipids had no significant influence on the growth performance of the grouper. However, it increased the lipid content in the fish body, liver, and muscle, and promoted hepatic triglyceride accumulation. The study also found that high dietary phospholipid inclusion decreased the expression of fatty acids oxidation related genes.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of dietary copper supplementation on the performance, serum lipid profile, and relative mRNA abundance of genes involved in lipid metabolism in male Lezhi black goat kids. The results showed that dietary copper supplementation did not significantly affect growth performance and blood lipid levels, but it did modify lipid metabolism by increasing muscular fat and decreasing serum low density lipoprotein cholesterol. These modifications may be associated with the reduction of relative mRNA abundance of genes for oxidation of long-chain fatty acid in muscle and liver of goat kids.

Summary: A 105-day feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary lipid and bile acids on the growth, digestion, and lipid metabolism in abalone. The results showed that 6.3% dietary lipid decreased the weight gain rate, while increasing dietary bile acids level enhanced the weight gain rate. The expression of genes involved in lipid transport, lipolysis, and lipogenesis was influenced by dietary lipid and bile acids. In conclusion, excessive dietary lipid content negatively impacted abalone growth, while appropriate levels of dietary bile acids significantly improved growth and digestion.

Summary: Post-exertional malaise (PEM) is a prominent symptom of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). By monitoring plasma metabolites, this study found significant differences in metabolic response and recovery pattern between ME/CFS patients and healthy control participants after two maximal exercise tests. Glutamate metabolism was identified as a crucial factor in the metabolic disruptions that lead to PEM.

Summary: The study found that different diets induced more severe NAFLD in male mice, characterized by lipid accumulation and inflammation/fibrosis. Sex-biased hepatic gene signatures showed different responses to various dietary challenges, with Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR alpha) playing a key role in gender-specific and NAFLD pathophysiology.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of adenosine and adenosine 5'-monophosphate supplementation on the growth performance, carcass characteristics, meat quality, and lipid metabolism of finishing pigs. The supplementation of adenosine and adenosine 5'-monophosphate resulted in improved carcass straight length and reduced drip loss. Adenosine monophosphate also showed a tendency to increase redness value and decrease free amino acid content in the muscle.

Summary: This study developed a targeted enzymatic assay to quantify aspartate uptake in single blastocysts. Results showed that 'fast' blastocysts had significantly higher rates of aspartate and glucose consumption. Gene expression analysis revealed that genes involved in aspartate and glucose metabolism were increased in 'fast' blastocysts, with differences maintained in placental and fetal liver tissue.

Summary: Photoperiod is a crucial environmental factor affecting the survival, growth, and metabolism of organisms. This study investigated the effects of different photoperiods on juvenile mud crab, revealing that crabs reared in the 18 L:6 D photoperiod had the highest weight and growth rate. The natural photoperiod also showed higher survival rate compared to constant light conditions. Additionally, crabs exposed to constant darkness exhibited altered lipid metabolism. Therefore, this research emphasizes the importance of light cues for mud crab culture and recommends the use of the natural photoperiod during the juvenile grow-out phase.

Summary: The study found that different levels of dietary arachidonic acid (ARA) had effects on the growth, survival rate, and feed intake of striped bass exposed to different temperatures. Higher ARA levels in the diet promoted weight gain and survival, while lower levels may hinder growth. Additionally, temperature rise influenced lipid deposition in hepatocytes and modulated gene expression related to prostaglandin and fatty acid synthesis and breakdown.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of feeding different levels of arachidonic acid (ARA) to Seriola dorsalis juveniles on their growth performance, fatty acid composition, gene expression, and blood parameters. The results showed that ARA levels directly influenced the fatty acid profiles of the liver and muscle, as well as the expression of certain genes. In addition, a reduction in cortisol and glucose levels was observed at a 0.9% ARA level.
