Summary: This study observed the tissue changes of the lung at different stages of development and concluded that the morphogenesis and differentiation of the developing lung epithelium depend on epithelial-mesenchyme interaction.

Summary: This study investigated the developmental characteristics of skeletal muscle and expression patterns of regulatory genes in quail embryos. The results showed that leg muscle grew faster and had greater weight and myofiber size compared to breast muscle. The MyoD and Pax7 genes played a significant role in embryonic muscle development, with high expression levels in the middle stage of the embryonic period. Embryonic day 12 was identified as a crucial point for muscle development.

Summary: The study focuses on the histogenesis of the esophagus in quail embryos, finding that the gut tube forms on the 4th day of incubation, with muscular layers and glandular development occurring sequentially on later days. The epithelial cells undergo stratification on the 15th day, while specific stains reveal the formation of endoderm and mesoderm on the 5th day. Various cell types and layers emerge as development progresses.

Summary: The genetic background of experimental animals plays a major role in the variations of experimental outcomes. In this study, the impact of plumage color mutations on the oropharyngeal roof structures, ingestive behavior, and performance of two lines of quails were investigated. The findings suggest significant differences in morphological structures and ingestive behaviors between brown and recessive white quails, providing useful insights for breeders selecting quail lines for meat production purposes.

Summary: This study describes the initial feathers of post-hatch ostrich and quail and compares their differences. The results show that ostriches have featherless spaces, while neither ostrich nor quail have barbules on the tips of the initial feathers. There are also differences in the structure of the initial feathers between the dorsal and ventral sides. These findings have implications for understanding the structure, function, and development of understudied feather types, such as those shared by non-avian dinosaurs.

Summary: The study found that male embryos had more differentially expressed genes after exposure to 17 beta-trenbolone compared to female embryos, while in adults, males and females had similar numbers of differentially expressed genes. Functional grouping and pathway enrichment analysis identified affected biological pathways including metabolism, growth factor signaling, and bile acid biosynthesis.

Summary: Both low relative humidity (RH) (25-35%) and high RH (85-93%) have effects on the development of chicken embryos. Low RH decreases body mass and body water content, while high RH increases the wet body mass of embryos after hatching.

Summary: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of species-specific auditory stimulation on hatching characteristics, performance traits, developmental stability, and behavioral characteristics of broiler embryos during incubation. The results showed that early auditory stimulation resulted in higher Tona scores but also higher discard rate. Auditory stimulation during incubation had no effect on other indicators. The study revealed that species-specific auditory stimulation significantly influenced the incubation window and the number of marketable chicks.

Summary: This study investigated the toxicity of TCIPP on early chicken embryos using a shell-less incubation system. The results showed that TCIPP exposure led to decreased survival rate, reduced body and organ length, impaired blood vessel and red blood cell development, decreased heart rate, asymmetrical somite formation, and impaired eye development in avian embryos.

Summary: Maternal signals play a crucial role in shaping embryonic development and post-natal phenotypes. RNA deposition is one method of maternal signaling, and it is believed to transmit circadian rhythms to offspring. However, the extent to which maternal developmental conditions influence maternal circadian gene transcripts and early embryonic gene transcription remains unclear.

Summary: Birds, especially Japanese quails, exposed to lead (Pb) contamination in drinking water showed an increase in kidney weight and a decrease in body weight and length. Pb exposure induced renal dysfunction, including abnormal uric acid metabolism, oxidative stress, apoptotic increment, and aggravated inflammation. The study revealed the nephrotoxic effects of Pb on birds through structural damages, disruption of purine metabolism, oxidation imbalance, apoptosis, and activation of the inflammatory pathway.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of different levels of organic copper supplementation on Japanese quail. The results showed that adding 150 mg/kg organic copper improved eggshell quality and reduced serum cholesterol levels, but had no significant effects on performance and feed intake.

Summary: The need to protect neural tissue from toxins has led to over a century of research on the blood-brain barrier, with a focus on its cellular architecture and functions. Studies have primarily used mammalian and other animal models, but similar barriers are found across invertebrates and vertebrates, complicating simplistic views of its evolution.

Summary: The most parsimonious explanation for nonreproducibility in the field of animal physiology is the inadequate reporting of key methodological details. Despite efforts by societies and journals to promote greater reporting compliance, such attempts have been relatively unsuccessful so far.
