Summary: This study aimed to estimate the methionine requirement of African Catfish and found that growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and other parameters were significantly affected by dietary methionine levels. The research suggested a lower digestible methionine requirement for growth in African catfish compared to previous reports.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the requirement of digestible methionine plus cystine in the diet for tambaqui. The results showed that increasing the dietary digestible methionine plus cystine level influenced the growth performance of tambaqui. The estimated requirements for weight gain, specific growth rate, and feed conversion ratio were 0.876%, 0.883%, and 0.907% of digestible methionine plus cystine, respectively.

Summary: Heat stress can affect the intestinal morphology and function in pigs, but supplementing with methionine, an intracellular antioxidant, may help alleviate these effects. This study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation with dl-Met above requirement on the performance, small intestine morphology, antioxidant enzymes activity, amino acid transporters expression, and serum concentration of free AA in heat-stressed pigs. The results showed that supplementing with methionine improved growth performance, small intestine morphology, antioxidant enzymes activity, and serum concentration of amino acids in heat-stressed pigs.

Summary: The use of DL-methionine in organic broiler diets is important for growth and production efficiency, but reducing methionine supplementation levels can decrease the efficiency of organic broiler growth and yield.

Summary: A 10-week feeding trial was conducted to determine the optimal dietary methionine requirement of sub-adult turbot. The results showed that fish growth significantly increased with increasing dietary methionine levels up to 1.82% and then plateaued. Adequate dietary methionine improved protein and lipid levels in the whole body and liver. It also increased the content of methionine and other amino acids in the hepatic free amino acid pool and affected the expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism.

Summary: The sulphur amino acids methionine, cysteine and taurine are important for growth and health. This study investigated their effects on yellowtail kingfish and found that adequate intake of these nutrients improved liver and intestinal function. The findings could contribute to the development of optimal aquafeed and maintenance of good health in yellowtail kingfish.

Summary: Night-restricted feeding (NRF) promotes growth and reduces fat content in rabbits models by improving circadian rhythm, enhancing metabolism, and preventing obesity. Research indicates that NRF can improve metabolic function by regulating protein synthesis and muscle formation.

Summary: Spaceflight induces hepatic damage due to oxidative stress, with a decrease in sulfur antioxidants observed in mouse livers after 30 days on the International Space Station. Exposure to 1 g centrifugation partially mitigated the damage, suggesting that a reduction in sulfur-containing compounds contributes to liver damage in spaceflight environments.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different feeds on the performance of lactating dairy cows. The results showed that increasing the content of rumen undegradable protein (RUP) in the feed can improve the intake and milk yield of cows in mid-lactation. However, the effects of different feeds on the performance of dairy cows were not significant.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of time-restricted feeding (TRF) on the gut microbial rhythmicity in growing pigs. The results showed that TRF altered the distribution of feed intake, decreased the concentration of colonic cellulose, and changed the alpha-diversity indexes of the gut microbiota. TRF also shifted the rhythmicity of specific microbial families and altered the interaction pattern among different microbes. The importance rating of this study is 8 out of 10.

Summary: Sulfur-containing amino acids methionine (Met), cysteine (Cys), and taurine (Tau) play important roles in cellular functions and metabolism. This study investigates the role of Cys and Tau in the anticancer activity of Met-restricted diets. The results show that diets supplemented with Cys or Tau exhibit marked anticancer activity in animal models of colon cancer, ovarian cancer, and renal cell carcinoma. These findings suggest the potential use of these diets in cancer therapy.

Summary: This study examined the effects of taurine on beluga, including its impact on growth performance, digestive enzyme activities, amino acid profiles, and blood biochemistry. The results showed that moderate levels of taurine supplementation improved growth and digestive enzyme activities in fish. In both fresh water and brackish water environments, feeding beluga diets containing 12.3-16.7 g/kg taurine resulted in the highest growth rates and improved blood biochemistry profiles.
