Surprisingly, there has been a lack of research on the use of Tris-based extenders to safeguard guinea pig sperm under refrigeration conditions. This study aimed to assess the viability of guinea pig spermatozoa diluted in Tris buffer-based extenders during storage at 5.00 ˚C. Sperm collection was carried out through castration of the animals. For this study, 10 adult male guinea pigs were utilized, being divided into four groups including phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), human tubal fluid (HTF), Tris-citric-glucose (TCG), and Tris-fructose-yolk (TFY) cultures. Evaluations including sperm motility, morphology, plasma membrane integrity, viability, and total count were conducted at 0, 24, and 48 hr after sampling. The results obtained indicated that at the 24-hr and 48-hr marks of the experiment, both overall and progressive motility percentages, viability, plasma membrane integrity, and morphology of sperms in the PBS and HTF cultures exhibited a significant increase in comparison with the TCG and TFY cultures.

We conducted a study to examine if augmenting breast cancer cells with a particular molecule, known as miRNA-142-3p, could improve the efficacy of a widely used treatment called DTX. The expression level of miR-142-3p was initially assessed in MDA-MB-468 cells. The miRNA transfection was performed to conduct additional experiments. The impact of a combined treatment involving DTX and miRNA-142-3p on both cell migration (by wound healing assay) and apoptosis (using annexin V/Propidium iodide staining) was examined. Cell viability was determined through the MTT assay, and gene expression was quantified using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The combined application of DTX and miRNA-142-3p resulted in a significant decrease in the expression of factors promoting tumor growth, such as SOX2, Octamer 4, HMGA2, Kruppel-like factor 4, and Bach-1. Additionally, the combination of miRNA-142-3p and DTX initiated apoptotic cell death. Moreover, the progression of breast cancer cells was impeded by inducing cell cycle arrest at the G<sup>1</sup> phase. This combination also efficiently restrained the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells. The DTX or miRNA-142-3p alone can suppress malignant behavior and progression of breast cancer cells, but their combination elicits a synergistic effect that further enhances breast cancer inhibition.

The results of this study revealed that the postbiotics of <i>L. sakei</i> was an effective antimicrobial additive for controlling foodborne pathogens in beef fillets and aerosolization is a promising method for developing an antimicrobial coating on meat to enhance meat safety.</p>","PeriodicalId":23989,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Research Forum","volume":"15 5","pages":"223-229"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11251537/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141634732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The case was examined using histopathological and immunohistochemical methods. The cat was referred to a private veterinary clinic with general respiratory system problems and subsequent deterioration, leading to death. The cat owner granted permission for the cat necropsy and pathological examinations at Department of Pathology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Selçuk University, Konya, Türkiye. During systemic necropsy, white round foci with diameters ranging from 3.00 to 5.00 mm were observed in the lung and spleen. Tissue samples were collected from the lung, spleen, liver, heart, kidney, mediastinal lymph nodes and brain for histopathological examinations. The tissues were subjected to routine histological tissue processing and sections were stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin and Ziehl-Neelsen. Additionally, <i>Mycobacterium spp</i>. antibodies were used for immunohistochemical staining. Microscopic examination revealed exudative tuberculosis lesions, areas of necrosis without a fibrous capsule and karyorrhectic cells only in the lung and spleen. Acid-resistant bacteria observed by ZN staining in the lesioned areas of the lung and spleen were identified as <i>Mycobacterium spp</i>. using immunohistochemical staining. No positive staining was observed in other organs using ZN and immunohistochemical methods. As a result, congenital tuberculosis was diagnosed in a cat for the first time, especially in relation to lesions in the spleen.</p>","PeriodicalId":23989,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Research Forum","volume":"15 4","pages":"203-205"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11102793/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141069665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
