Nevertheless, the specific alterations in the energy metabolic pathways that affect testicular development have not been extensively investigated. This study aimed to investigate the variations in metabolites and alterations in energy metabolic pathways in the testes of <em>Hu</em> sheep with different developmental status at 6 months of age. Twelve rams with similar body weights but distinct testis developmental status were selected among 345 <em>Hu</em> sheep based on testis size and histomorphology results, and they were divided into the well-developed (L group, <em>n</em> = 6) and developmentally delayed group (S group, <em>n</em> = 6). A total of 660 metabolites were identified via widely targeted metabolic analysis. Among 148 differentially expressed metabolites, 78 were up-regulated and 70 were downregulated in the L group compared with the S group. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that a significant proportion of the identified differential metabolites was implicated in energy metabolism-related pathways. Moreover, the L group exhibited significantly higher expression levels of genes involved in glycolysis (GLTU8 and LDH), TCA (PDHA2, CS and IDH3G), gluconeogenesis (PCK1), pentose phosphate (G6PD), and fatty acid degradation (GK, ACSL1, FABP3, CPT1 and CTP2). The activity enzymes such as citrate synthase, pyruvate dehydrogenase, and lactate dehydrogenase also increased in the L group. In summary, this observation implied that the augmentation of energy metabolic pathways plays a crucial role in facilitating testicular development. The upregulation of energy metabolic pathways collectively facilitates the testicular development in <em>Hu</em> sheep.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11356,"journal":{"name":"Domestic animal endocrinology","volume":"91 ","pages":"Article 106909"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142892848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Estrogen is not only important for reproduction, but also protects against inflammation. In this study, the role of pyroptosis in testicular inflammation and the effects of E2 against inflammation and pyroptosis of yak interstitial cells were investigated. Inflamed testes exhibited structural damage and pyroptosis with decreased E2, testosterone, and estrogen receptor β (ERβ) levels in testicular fluid. E2 alone inhibited testosterone secretion and increased ERβ expression in mature LCs. In LCs, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) causes inflammation by activation of TNF-α and IL-6, and pyroptosis via activation of the classical and non-classical pyroptosis pathways. LPS inhibits sex hormone secretion and ERβ expression in LCs. E2 inhibited the LPS-induced decrease of ER expression in LCs and also inhibited LPS-induced interstitial cell inflammation and pyroptosis, which was partially blocked by Selisistat (EX-527, SIRT1 inhibitor) or Fulvestrant (ICI 182,780, E2 non-genomic receptor inhibitors). In conclusion, E2 relieved LPS-induced inflammation and pyroptosis of yak LCs via the SIRT1/Nox4/ROS pathway.

These changes are likely mediated, at least in part, by hormonal systems that control energy homeostasis and appetite. Regulation of insulin signaling is critical to ensuring appropriate glucose homeostasis. Poor maternal nutrition during gestation impacts circulating glucose and insulin concentration in both the dam and offspring, reducing circulating insulin and glucose in offspring of restricted-fed dams and increased circulating insulin and glucose in the offspring of over-fed dams. Leptin and ghrelin are key regulators of appetite and feed intake. Offspring of over-fed ewes often exhibit leptin resistance, which may lead to changes in adiposity. Leptin responses in offspring of restricted-fed ewes are not well defined, although restricted-fed ewes themselves exhibit decreased circulating leptin concentrations. Little is known about the effects of poor maternal nutrition on offspring ghrelin. Glucocorticoids and thyroid hormones are required for appropriate fetal development. Poor maternal nutrition during gestation alters the development of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal and thyroid axes in the offspring, although the effects vary according to the type, duration, timing, and severity of the nutritional insult. The relationships between insulin, leptin, ghrelin, glucocorticoids, and thyroid hormones can result in synergistic effects, exacerbating negative outcomes for the offspring. The impacts of poor maternal nutrition are multi-faceted, and the resulting alterations in body composition can continue to impact hormone regulation beyond the initial insult caused by poor maternal nutrition during gestation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11356,"journal":{"name":"Domestic animal endocrinology","volume":"91 ","pages":"Article 106907"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142834606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a percentage of total serum lipids, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) reduced 52.4 % (47.9 %-61.0 %) to 50 % (41 %-54.8 %) and very-low density lipoprotein (VLDL) increased 10.4 % (6.4 %-14.4 %) to 12.3 % (9.9 %-16.8 %) (all p&lt;0.05). Differences between ertugliflozin and dapagliflozin groups were not significant in any of these parameters at days 0, 7 or 30. At day 30, 10/48 (21 %) cases had [triglycerides] &gt; 2.0 mmol/l (maximum = 10.8mmol/l). Day 30 [triglyceride] correlated with day 0: basal insulin (rho=0.47); [triglyceride] (rho=0.42); %VLDL (rho=0.34) day 30: [total cholesterol] (rho=0.67), %HDL (rho=-0.432) and %VLDL (rho=0.708). Our findings suggest that SGLT2 inhibitors induce minor changes in lipid profiles, with occasional cases of marked hypertriglyceridemia, and that dapagliflozin and ertugliflozin exhibit similar biochemical effects.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11356,"journal":{"name":"Domestic animal endocrinology","volume":"90 ","pages":"Article 106894"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142699780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) is associated with decreased activity of dopaminergic neurons which normally suppress peptide hormone secretion from the pituitary pars intermedia. A high proportion of horses with PPID also have insulin dysregulation (ID), characterised by post-prandial hyperinsulinaemia and/or tissue insulin resistance, which are risk factors for the development of laminitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of alpha-methyl-para-tyrosine (AMPT), a tyrosine hydroxylase inhibitor that reduces dopamine production, on insulin sensitivity and the post-prandial insulin response to a glucose-containing meal. Six healthy Standardbred horses were enrolled in a placebo-controlled randomised crossover study, in which one dose of AMPT (40 mg/kg BW) or placebo was administered orally, prior to performing an in-feed oral glucose test (OGT) and a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test (FSIGTT). Dopamine reduction by AMPT was confirmed by an increase in plasma prolactin concentration and the lack of post-prandial increase in plasma dopamine concentration compared to placebo. Post-prandial insulin responses, both peak and AUCi, were increased after AMPT compared to placebo (<em>P</em>=0.048 and <em>P</em>=0.005, respectively), without affecting blood glucose concentrations. However, one dose of AMPT did not appear to affect tissue sensitivity as assessed by the FSIGTT. This study confirmed that dopamine plays a role in the regulation of insulin secretion in horses, as it does in other species, whereby the post-prandial release of dopamine into the circulation may inhibit pancreatic insulin secretion. Further studies are required to evaluate different dosing protocols for AMPT, and to further investigate the links between PPID, ID and laminitis risk in horses.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11356,"journal":{"name":"Domestic animal endocrinology","volume":"90 ","pages":"Article 106893"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142564240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
