Abstract
The increasing global population and protein demand cause global challenges for food supply. Fueled by significant developments in synthetic biology, microbial cell factories are constructed for the bioproduction of milk proteins, providing a promising approach for scalable and cost-effective production of alternative proteins. This review focused on the synthetic biology-based microbial cell factory construction for milk protein bioproduction. The composition, content, and functions of major milk proteins were first summarized, especially for caseins, α-lactalbumin, and β-lactoglobulin. An economic analysis was performed to determine whether cell factory-based milk protein production is economically viable for industrial production. Cell factory-based milk protein production is proved to be economically viable for industrial production. However, there still exist some challenges for cell factory-based milk protein biomanufacturing and application, including the inefficient production of milk proteins, insufficient investigation of protein functional property, and insufficient food safety evaluation. Constructing new high-efficiency genetic regulatory elements and genome editing tools, coexpression/overexpression of chaperone genes, and engineering protein secretion pathways and establishing a cost-effective protein purification method are possible ways to improve the production efficiency. Milk protein biomanufacturing is one of the promising approaches to acquiring alternative proteins in the future, which is of great importance for supporting cellular agriculture.

Administration of melatonin prior to modified synchronization protocol improves the productive and reproductive efficiency of Chinese crossbred buffaloes in low breeding season. Front Vet Sci 2023; 10:1118604. [PMID: 37261111 PMCID: PMC10228501 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2023.1118604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Melatonin is a neurohormone involving various biological processes, including restoration of cyclicity in animals with seasonal breeding patterns. The use of melatonin in different forms has gained broader acceptance in different species, particularly in summer anestrous buffaloes. Objectives The objective of the current study was to evaluate the melatonin effect on the reproductive and productive performance of crossbred buffaloes during the low breeding season. Methods Sixty-five cyclic and reproductively sound crossbred buffaloes were randomly allocated to three groups: the G1 (n = 20) served as the control group and received no single melatonin, G2 received melatonin (n = 22; 18 mg/50 kg, body weight) once prior to synchronization and G3 group was administered multiple melatonin injections (n = 23; 6 mg/50 kg body weight) for three consecutive days before the start of the synchronization protocol. The reproductive performance, milk yield traits, and serum immunoglobulin M (IgM) and melatonin levels were evaluated in treated and untreated crossbred buffaloes. Results The results revealed that a single dose of melatonin administration has (p < 0.05) improved estrus response, ovulation occurrence and follicular growth in crossbred buffaloes compared to control groups. Higher pregnancy rates were observed in both melatonin-treated buffalo groups compared to the control. Following the administration of melatonin, serum IgM level increased in G2 and G3; however, an increment in melatonin level (p < 0.05) was detected in the G2 group only as compared to the control group subsequent day of melatonin administration. The milk compositions were not affected by melatonin administration except for milk urea nitrogen and somatic cell count (SCC). The melatonin administration (p < 0.05) decreased the somatic cell count in buffalo milk compared to untreated. Conclusion In conclusion, single or multiple doses of melatonin before initiating the synchronization protocol improved the ovulation, ovulatory follicle diameter and pregnancy rates in crossbred buffaloes during the low breeding season. Moreover, the administration of melatonin enhanced the IgM values along milk traits in terms of milk protein, MUN and somatic cell count in treated buffaloes.

Abstract
The domestic buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), also known as water buffalo, comprises two sub-species the River buffalo (B. bubalis ssp. bubalis; 50 chromosomes) and the Swamp buffalo (ssp. carabanensis; 48 chromosomes). Domestic buffaloes are a globally significant livestock species. In South Asia, the River buffalo is a primary source of milk and meat and has a very important role in food security. The River buffalo also supports high-value, differentiated food production in Europe and the Americas. The Swamp buffalo is an important draft animal and a source of food in Southeast Asia and East Asia. The growing importance of buffaloes requires that they undergo an accelerated rate of genetic gain for efficiency of production, product quality, and sustainability. This will involve the increased use of assisted reproduction. The initial application of reproductive technology in buffaloes had variable success as it relied on the adoption of procedures developed for cattle. This included artificial insemination (AI), sperm cryopreservation, and embryo technologies such as cloning and in vitro embryo production (IVEP). Reproductive technology has been progressively refined in buffaloes, and today, the success of AI and IVEP is comparable to cattle. Ovarian follicular superstimulation (superovulation) combined with in vivo embryo production results in low embryo recovery in buffaloes and has limited practical application. The contribution of elite female buffaloes to future genetic improvement will therefore rely mainly on oocyte pickup and IVEP. This will include IVEP from females before puberty to reduce generation intervals. This review provides for the first time a clear chronology on the development, adoption, and impact, of assisted reproduction in domestic buffaloes.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2022; 231:113166. [PMID: 35030520 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2022.113166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2021] [Revised: 12/16/2021] [Accepted: 01/03/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
High concentration of blood ammonia can affect the uterus receptivity and decrease fecundity in dairy cow. Melatonin can reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. However, it is not clear whether melatonin can alleviate ammonia-induced apoptosis of endometrial epithelial cell (EEC) and reduced uterus receptivity. The bovine EEC were treated with ammonium chloride and/or melatonin. Cell viability, apoptosis, oxidative stress and mitochondrial membrane potential were measured and the expression of apoptosis-related genes (p53, Cyt-c, Bax, Bcl-2, caspase-8, caspase-9 and caspase-3), uterus receptivity related genes (VEGF, LIF and EGF) and inflammatory factors (TLR-4, IL-6 and NF-κB) were detected. In addition, the expression of VEGF was detected after adding NF-κB inhibitor (40 μM) and IL-6 (1 ng/mL and 50 ng/mL). The results showed that ammonia significantly increased intracellular ROS level, mRNA and protein expression of Bax, p53, Cyt-c, caspase-9, caspase-8, caspase-3, TLR-4, NF-κB and IL-6, promoted cell apoptosis, while decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, the mRNA and protein expression of VEGF and EGF. Interestingly, melatonin significantly mitigated ammonia-induced changes. However, melatonin could not alleviate ammonia-induced changes of IL-6 and VEGF when NF-κB signal pathway was inhibited. The addition of IL-6 significantly reduced mRNA and protein expression of VEGF. In conclusion, ammonia induced EEC apoptosis through ROS production and activation of mitochondrial apoptosis pathway, and induced inflammatory response through TLR4/NF-κB/IL-6 pathway. Melatonin alleviated EEC apoptosis by inhibiting ROS pathway, and reduced IL-6 expression by inhibiting TLR-4/NF-κB signal pathway, which eventually improved VEGF expression and uterus receptivity in dairy cows.

Xu C, Zhang Z. The Effect of Law Students in Entrepreneurial Psychology Under the Artificial Intelligence Technology. Front Psychol 2021; 12:731713. [PMID: 34803807 PMCID: PMC8595922 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2021.731713] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2021] [Accepted: 10/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
With the increasingly serious employment situation in China, the government and schools encourage college students to start businesses to alleviate employment pressure. College student's successful entrepreneurship depends on national preferential policies, social support, and, most importantly, their healthy and solid psychological quality and entrepreneurial psychological quality. The purpose is to understand the entrepreneurial psychology of college students and study the entrepreneurial psychological effect. Firstly, the four aspects of entrepreneurial psychology are summarized, including entrepreneurial awareness, entrepreneurial volition, entrepreneurial ability, and entrepreneurial personality. Secondly, the research status of college students' entrepreneurial psychology is reviewed, and the existing problems are pointed out. Thirdly, the combined model of wavelet transform and Neural Network (NN) is proposed, and the feasibility of the proposed model is evaluated through the analysis of college students' entrepreneurial psychology. The wavelet NN is used in experimental design to predict college students' entrepreneurial psychology, and the predicted results are compared with the actual value. From the perspective of the prediction results of entrepreneurial psychology, the combination of wavelet algorithm and neural network is more accurate for entrepreneurial psychology prediction and evaluation results of law students. Overall, the difference between the predicted value and the actual value is within 0.3 points, which is relatively stable. According to the analysis of single-factor results, the scores of students of different majors in the four dimensions of entrepreneurial psychology are all higher than 3.5, but there is no significant difference among the four dimensions (P > 0.05), indicating that the major has no significant impact on entrepreneurial psychology; law students with different educational backgrounds have significant differences in entrepreneurial psychology (P < 0.05), among which students with a master's degree have the strongest entrepreneurial will, while doctoral students have the lowest entrepreneurial will; in terms of entrepreneurial psychological capital, men's self-efficacy is higher than women's, and the difference is significant (P < 0.05). The difference between males and females in the scores of entrepreneurial psychological factors' four aspects is not very obvious. In terms of entrepreneurial psychological capital, males' self-efficacy is significantly higher than females' (P < 0.05). Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has great application prospects in the prediction and evaluation of college students' entrepreneurial psychology, and college students' entrepreneurial psychology is highly correlated with gender and education.
