COMBINED ANALYSIS OF RRBS DNA METHYLOME AND TRANSCRIPTOME REVEAL NOVEL CANDIDATE GENES RELATED TO PORCINE CLOSTRIDIUM PERFRINGENS TYPE C-INDUCED DIARRHEA

Clostridium perfringens type C (Cp) is one of the principal microorganisms responsible for bacterial diarrhea in neonatal and pre-weaning piglets.To better understand the molecular effects of Cp infection, we performed a genome-wide comparison of the changes in DNA methylation and gene expression in Cp infected resistant and susceptible piglets.We

Priapism, an unwanted, painful, prolonged erection that is unrelated to sexual stimulation, is a common complication of sickle cell disease (SCD).Priapic events in SCD are stuttering, meaning they occur repeatedly with intervening periods of detumescence.Without health care intervention, repeated episodes can lead to erectile dysfunction.There are

Objective: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a well-known cause of secondary restless legs syndrome (RLS).Iron deficiency without anemia (IDNA) is insidious, and its association with RLS is less evaluated.We investigate prevalence and features of IDNA in a consecutive cohort of patients with RLS.Methods: We included sequential primary RLS patients an

The paper presents the influence of the use of supplementary feedings on the development of bee colonies and venom production.We evaluated the venom production during harvests of rapeseed, Sunglasses acacia and sunflower.The research was carried out in the apiary of the Faculty of Bioengineering of Animal Resources within the ULST.The biological ma
