The climate change-associated abnormal weather patterns negatively influences the productivity and performance of farm animals. Heat stress is major detrimental factor hampering production, causing substantial economic loss to livestock industry. Therefore, it important identify heat-tolerant breeds that can survive produce optimally in any given environment. To achieve this goal, a clearer understanding genetic differences underlying molecular mechanisms associated with change impacts heat tolerance are prerequisite. Adopting next-generation biotechnological statistical tools like whole transcriptome analysis, metagenome sequencing, bisulphite genome-wide association studies (GWAS), selection signatures provides an opportunity goal. Through these techniques, possible permanent markers for tolerance, by incorporating those marker-assisted breeding selection, target livestock. This review gives overview recent advancements assessing using such ‘omics’ approaches models. salient findings from research highlighted several candidate biomarkers have potential be incorporated into future heat-tolerance studies. Such could revolutionise production changing scenario support food demands growing human population.

Min pigs, a prominent local breed from Northeast China, have diverged into two distinct breeds, Ermin (EM) pigs and Hebao (HB) through prolonged natural artificial selection. Although these breeds exhibit differences in body size, the genetic mechanisms underlying this variation remain poorly understood. In study, we performed whole-genome resequencing transcriptome analysis on EM HB to elucidate basis of size genome-wide selection signal identification differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The diversity population structure across 14 pig revealed that, compared with other present relatively high unique structure. Notably, exhibited significant differentiation pigs. Integrated data candidate associated including ENPP1, ENPP3, SPP1, CLU, ITGA11, ITGB1, IQGAP2, BMP7, F2RL2. These are enriched primarily pathways related ECM-receptor interactions; pantothenate CoA biosynthesis; starch sucrose metabolism; nicotinate nicotinamide pyrimidine nucleotide cellular responses lipids; biomineral tissue development; biomineralization; cell signaling, metabolic responses, lipid deposition, skeletal development. ITGB1 chromosome 10 showed strong positive an SNP locus exhibiting G/A allele frequency difference between (G = 52.94%, A 47.06%) 0%, 100%). Our findings suggest that potentially modulate metabolism efficiency adipose variations expression gene, contributing differences. results provide new insights domestic serve as valuable reference for identifying breeding sizes.

Abstract The pace of life (POL) is shaped by a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors, influencing growth, maturation, lifespan across species. Hippo signaling pathway, key regulator organ size cellular homeostasis, has emerged as central integrator cues that modulate POL traits. In this review, we explore how the pathway links factors—such temperature fluctuations dietary energy availability—to molecular mechanisms governing metabolic balance, hormonal signaling, reproductive timing. Specifically, highlight regulatory interactions sensors (AMPK, mTOR, SIRT1 DLK1-Notch), well signals (IGF-1, kisspeptin, leptin, cortisol, thyroid sex steroids), which together orchestrate life-history traits, including growth rates, sexual with particular emphasis on their role in Furthermore, consider its potential coordinator POL-related processes, such telomere dynamics epigenetic mechanisms, within broader network. By integrating insights from biology eco-evolutionary perspectives, propose future directions to dissect pathway’s regulation taxa. Understanding these will provide new perspectives organisms adaptively adjust strategies response variability.

Oxidative stress has been associated with a number of physiological problems in swine, including reduced production efficiency. Recently, although there increased research into regulatory mechanisms and antioxidant strategies relation to oxidative stress-induced pig production, it remains so far largely unsuccessful develop accurate models nutritional for specific factors. Here, we discuss the dose intensity causes involving physiological, environmental dietary factors, recent provide theoretical guidance future swine.

Background/Objectives: The first camelized mouse model (Nrapc.255ins78) was developed to investigate the mechanisms underlying camels’ adaptation extreme environments. Previous studies demonstrated that these mice exhibit a cold-resistant phenotype, characterized by increased expression of inflammatory cytokine-related genes in heart under cold stress. Nebulin-related anchoring protein (NRAP) plays critical role organizing myofibrils during cardiomyocyte development. This study builds on prior research analyzing transcriptomes Nrapc.255ins78 non-stress conditions explore origins cytokine responses exposure. Methods: RNA sequencing performed hearts 12-week-old male and female wild-type control mice. Results: Differential analysis identified 25 genes, including 12 associated with cell cycle division, all consistently downregulated Nrapc.255ins78. Notably, calcium integrin-binding gene (Cib3) significantly upregulated (FDR < 0.05; p 0.001). Conclusions: These differentially expressed suggest altered dynamics cardiomyocytes for maintaining homeostasis, supporting hypothesis cytokines exposure may represent an adaptive response. findings provide valuable insights into genetic temperature camels highlight potential pathways enhancing stress resistance other mammals.

In mammals, exposure to low temperatures induces white adipose tissue (WAT) browning and alters lipid metabolism promote thermogenesis, thereby maintaining body temperature. However, this response varies across different depots. study, Hezuo pigs were exposed either room temperature (23 ± 2 °C) or (−15 for periods of 12 h, 24 48 5 d, 10 15 d. Inguinal fat (IF) perirenal (PF) collected analyzed using hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining, transmission electron microscopy, RT-qPCR, RNA-seq. Following cryoexposure, our results demonstrated a significant increase in adipocyte number corresponding decrease cross-sectional area both IF PF groups from h While numbers elevated at these changes not statistically significant. Moreover, droplets mitochondria more abundant, the mRNA expression levels thermogenic genes UCP3 PGC-1α significantly higher compared control group during h-10 d cold period. No observed other groups. RNA-seq data indicated that peaked on day low-temperature treatment. tissue, is mainly regulated by such as FABP4, WNT10B, PCK1, PLIN1, LEPR, ADIPOQ. These are involved classical pathway provide energy adaptation. contrast, like ATP5F1A, ATP5PO, SDHB, NDUFS8, SDHA, COX5A play roles within neurodegenerative disease pathway, has positive impact process related degenerative diseases. Further investigation needed clarify functions candidate explore genetic mechanisms underlying cold-resistance traits local pig populations.
