Abstract
OBJECTIVE Raw potato starch (RPS) is resistant to digestion, escapes absorption, and is metabolized by intestinal microflora in the large intestine and acts as their energy source. In this study, we compared the effect of different concentrations of RPS on the intestinal bacterial community of weaned piglets. METHODS Male weaned piglets (25-days-old, 7.03±0.49 kg) were either fed a corn/soybean-based control diet (CON, n = 6) or two treatment diets supplemented with 5% RPS (RPS5, n = 4) or 10% RPS (RPS10, n = 4) for 20 days and their fecal samples were collected. The day 0 and 20 samples were analyzed using a 16S rRNA gene sequencing technology, followed by total genomic DNA extraction, library construction, and high-throughput sequencing. After statistical analysis, five phyla and 45 genera accounting for over 0.5% of the reads in any of the three groups were further analyzed. Furthermore, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in the day 20 fecal samples were analyzed using gas chromatography. RESULTS Significant changes were not observed in the bacterial composition at the phylum level even after 20 d post feeding (dpf); however, the abundance of Intestinimonas and Barnesiella decreased in both RPS treatment groups compared to the CON group. Consumption of 5% RPS increased the abundance of Roseburia (p<0.05) and decreased the abundance of Clostridium (p<0.01) and Mediterraneibacter (p< 0.05). In contrast, consumption of 10% RPS increased the abundance of Olsenella (p<0.05) and decreased the abundance of Campylobacter (p<0.05), Kineothrix (p<0.05), Paraprevotella (p<0.05), and Vallitalea (p<0.05). Additionally, acetate (p<0.01), butyrate (p<0.05), valerate (p = 0.01), and total SCFAs (p = 0.01) were upregulated in the RPS5 treatment group. CONCLUSION Feeding 5% RPS altered bacterial community composition and promoted gut health in weaned piglets. Thus, resistant starch as a feed additive may prevent diarrhea in piglets during weaning.

Abstract
This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of three different
copper (Cu) sources (one inorganic and two organics) and levels (0, 50, and 100
mg/kg) on the growth performance, Cu digestibility, fecal mineral excretion,
serum mineral concentration, jejunal morphology, and serum biochemical profile
of growing pigs. A total of 42 male, growing pigs (31.08 ± 1.82 kg) were
randomly assigned to seven treatments consisting of one negative control (0
mg/kg of added Cu level) and treatments with copper sulfate (CuSO4), Cu-amino
acid complex (CuAA), and Cu-hydroxy-4-methylthio butanoate chelate complex
(CuHMB) at 50 and 100 mg/kg each for 28 d. Pigs fed 50 or 100 mg/kg of Cu showed
improved (p < 0.05) average daily gain and feed intake.
Although Cu excretion decreased (p < 0.01) in pigs fed
100 mg/kg of organic Cu sources compared to those fed CuSO4, there
was no difference between the Cu sources in pigs fed 50 mg/kg. However, the
apparent total tract digestibility of Cu increased (p <
0.01) in pigs fed organic Cu sources compared with that in pigs fed
CuSO4. The addition of CuHMB increased (p
< 0.01) serum phosphorus and sulfur concentrations; however, there were
no effects of source and level on jejunal morphology and serum biochemical
profile. These results suggest that the inclusion (50 mg/kg) of organic Cu
sources (CuAA and CuHMB) in the growing pig diet could be beneficial for growth
performance and Cu availability and may reduce environmental pollution.

Abstract
Maximum residue limits (MRL) for pesticides in feed have been set to protect public health and produce safe livestock products. In vivo experiments to establish MRL are essential, as livestock are commonly used to obtain reliable In vivo quantitative information. Here, we aimed to evaluate whether small laboratory animals can replace or reduce monogastric livestock in experiments to quantify pesticide residues In vivo after oral consumption through feed. First, 24 pigs and rats were randomly assigned to four groups and fed 0, 3, 9, or 30 mg/kg of sulfoxaflor. After four weeks, serum, muscle, fat, liver, kidney, and small intestine samples were collected, and sulfoxaflor residues were analyzed using liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry. Sulfoxaflor residues in pig tissues were significantly correlated with those in rat tissues. Model equations were formulated based on the residual sulfoxaflor amount in pig and rat tissues. The calculated and measured sulfoxaflor residues in pigs and rats showed more than 90% similarity. Sulfoxaflor did not affect body weight gain, feed intake, or the feed conversion ratio. Therefore, we concluded that pesticide residue quantification in vivo to establish MRL could be performed using small laboratory animals instead of livestock animals. This would contribute to obtaining In vivo pesticide residue information and reducing large-scale livestock animal experiments.

Abstract
Deoxynivalenol (DON) is the most common mycotoxin contaminant of cereal-based
food and animal feed. The toxicity of DON is very low compared to that of other
toxins; however, the most prominent signs of DON exposure include inappetence
and body weight loss, which causes considerable economic losses in the livestock
industry. This review summarizes critical studies on biological DON mycotoxin
mitigation strategies and the respective in vitro and
in vivo intestinal effects. Focus areas include growth
performance, gut health in terms of intestinal histomorphology, epithelial
barrier functions, the intestinal immune system and microflora, and short-chain
fatty acid production in the intestines. In addition, DON detoxification and
modulation of these parameters, through biological supplements, are discussed.
Biological detoxification of DON using microorganisms can attenuate DON toxicity
by modulating gut microbiota and improving gut health with or without
influencing the growth performance of pigs. However, the use of microorganisms
as feed additives to livestock for mycotoxins detoxification needs more research
before commercial use.

Abstract
Simple Summary Mycotoxins in feeds can cause detrimental effects on the growth performance and health of pigs. One of the methods used to overcome the negative effects of mycotoxins in animal feeds is to add toxin sequestering agents to feed. The present work was conducted to determine the efficacy of mycotoxin sequestering agents using an in vitro method. All mycotoxin sequestering agents effectively bound to aflatoxin B1; only activated charcoal effectively sequestered deoxynivalenol; and a bentonite product, an aluminosilicate product, and activated charcoal effectively sequestered zearalenone. Abstract The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of mycotoxin sequestering agents for aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), deoxynivalenol (DON), and zearalenone (ZEA) using an in vitro method. The twelve toxin sequestering agents tested were seven bentonite products (bentonite A, B, C, D, E, F, and G), two aluminosilicate products (aluminosilicate A and B), a heulandite product, an activated charcoal product, and a yeast cell wall product. A two-step in vitro procedure was employed to mimic the conditions of temperature, pH, and digestive enzymes in the stomach and small intestine of pigs. All mycotoxin sequestering agents tested were able to bind to AFB1 with a high efficacy (>92%). The DON sequestering rate of activated charcoal (99.1%) was greater (p < 0.05) than that of other products. The ZEA sequestering rate of bentonite F (97.0%), aluminosilicate A (99.6%), and activated charcoal (100.0%) was the greatest (p < 0.05) among the tested mycotoxin sequestering agents. Overall, most mycotoxin sequestering agents had the ability to bind to AFB1, but most products, except activated charcoal, failed to sequester DON and ZEA.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of exposure to flutriafol based on residues in
pigs. Pigs were exposed to different concentrations (0.313, 0.625, 3.125, 6.25,
and 12.5 mg/kg bw/d, n=20) for 4 wk in different treatment groups. Serum
biochemical analysis, residue levels, and histological analysis were conducted
using the VetTest chemistry analyzer, liquid chromatography mass spectrometry,
and Masson’s trichrome staining, respectively. The body weight (initial
and final) was not significantly different between groups. Parameters such as
creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, alanine aminotransferase, and lipase levels
were significantly different as compared to the control group. Flutriafol
increased the residue limits in individual tissue of the pigs in a dose
dependent manner. Flutriafol exposures indicated the presence of fibrosis, as
confirmed from Masson’s trichrome staining. These results suggest that
flutriafol affects the morphology and serum levels in pigs. The dietary
flutriafol levels can provide a basis for maximum residue limits and food safety
for pork and related products.

Abstract
Copper is an essential mineral for pigs, thus it is used as a feed additive in
the forms of copper sulfate. Therefore, this study aimed at characterizing the
fecal microbiota shifts in pigs as fed by different forms of copper
supplementation. 40 growing pigs aged 73 ± 1 days with an average weight
of 30.22 ± 1.92kg were randomly divided into 5 groups. The control group
(CON) fed with basal diet, while treatment groups were fed a basal diet
supplemented with 100 ppm/kg of copper sulfate (CuSO4), Cu-glycine
complex (CuGly), Cu-amino acid complex (CuAA), and
Cu-hydroxy(4methylthio)butanoate chelate complex (CuHMB) for 28 days of trial,
respectively. The data presented the comparison between inorganic and organic
copper supplementation through gut microbiota in growing pigs. Alpha and Beta
diversity anaylsis resulted in copper supplementation did shifted gut microbioal
community structure. At the phylum level, Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were the
most abundant phyla at all times regardless of treatment. At the genus level,
the relative abundances of Prevotella,
Lactobacillus, Megasphaera, and SMB53 of
the CuGly and CuHMB groups were significantly higher than those of copper
sulfate and basal diet groups. Overall, this study may provide the potential
role of organic copper replacing inorganic copper, resulting in increased
beneficial bacteria in the pig gut.

Abstract
This study estimated the effect of exposure to propiconazole through
implementation and residues in finishing pigs. We analyzed the expression of
fibrosis-related genes and performed histological analysis of the blood, liver,
kidney, muscle, ileum, and fat tissues. The animals were exposed for 28 d to
different concentrations of propiconazole (0.09, 0.44, 0.88, 4.41, and 8.82
mg/kg bw/d). Quantitative, gene expression, and histological analyses in tissues
were performed using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry, real-time PCR, and
Masson’s trichrome staining, respectively. Final body weight did not
differ among groups. However, genes involved in fibrosis were significantly
differentially regulated in response to propiconazole concentrations. Glucose,
alanine aminotransferase, and total bilirubin levels were significantly
increased compared with those in the control group, while alkaline phosphatase
level was decreased (p<0.05) after exposure to propiconazole. The residue
limits of propiconazole were increased in the finishing phase at 4.41 and 8.82
mg/kg bw/d. The liver, kidney, and ileum showed blue staining after
propiconazole treatment, confirmed by Masson's trichrome staining. In
conclusion, these findings suggest that propiconazole exposure disturbs the
expression of fibrosis-related genes. This study on dietary propiconazole in
pigs can provide a basis for determining maximum residue limits and a better
understanding of metabolism in pigs and meat products.

Abstract
Although inflammation and fibrosis, which are key mechanisms of chronic kidney disease, are associated with mitochondrial damage, little is known about the effects of mitochondrial damage on the collecting duct in renal inflammation and fibrosis. To generate collecting duct-specific mitochondrial injury mouse models, CR6-interacting factor-1 (CRIF1) flox/flox mice were bred with Hoxb7-Cre mice. We evaluated the phenotype of these mice. To evaluate the effects on unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)-induced renal injury, we divided the mice into the following four groups: a CRIF1flox/flox (wild-type (WT)) group, a CRIF1flox/flox-Hob7 Cre (CRIF1-KO) group, a WT-UUO group, and a CRIF1-KO UUO group. We evaluated the blood and urine chemistries, inflammatory and fibrosis markers, light microscopy, and electron microscopy of the kidneys. The inhibition of Crif1 mRNA in mIMCD cells reduced oxygen consumption and membrane potential. No significant differences in blood and urine chemistries were observed between WT and CRIF1-KO mice. In UUO mice, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and osteopontin expression, number of F4/80 positive cells, transforming growth factor-β and α-smooth muscle actin staining, and Masson's trichrome staining were significantly higher in the kidneys of CRIF1-KO mice compared with the kidneys of WT mice. In sham mice, urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHDG) was higher in CRIF1-KO mice than in WT mice. Moreover, CRIF1-KO sham mice had increased 8-OHDG-positive cell recruitment compared with WT-sham mice. CRIF1-KO-UUO kidneys had increased recruitment of 8-OHDG-positive cells compared with WT-UUO kidneys. In conclusion, collecting duct-specific mitochondrial injury increased oxidative stress. Oxidative stress associated with mitochondrial damage may aggravate UUO-induced renal injury.

Abstract
Heat stress (HS) damages health and decreases performance variables in pigs, and if severe enough, causes mortality. However, metabolic changes under HS and recovery following HS are poorly understood. Therefore, this study was aimed to expose the essential mechanisms by which growing pigs respond to HS and the temporal pattern of plasma concentrations (PC) of amino acids (AAs) and metabolites. Crossbred male growing pigs were penned separately and allowed to adapt to thermal-neutral (TN) conditions (20°C and 80% relative humidity; TN[-1D]). On the first day, all pigs were exposed to HS for 24 h (36°C and 60% relative humidity), then to TN conditions for 5 days (TN[2D] to TN[5D]). All pigs had ad libitum access to water and 3 kg feed twice daily. Rectal temperature (RT) and feed intake (FI) were determined daily. HS pigs had higher RT (40.72°C) and lower (50%) FI than TN(-1D) pigs (p < 0.01). The PC of indispensable (threonine, valine, and methionine) and dispensable (cysteine and tyrosine) AAs were higher (p < 0.05) in HS than TN(-1D) pigs and remained increased during recovery time. Nonprotein α-aminobutyric acid and β-alanine concentrations were higher (p < 0.05) in HS than TN(-1D) pigs. The metabolite concentration of creatinine was higher (p < 0.01) under HS treatment than other treatments, but that of alanine and leucine remained increased (p < 0.05) through 5 d of recovery. In summary, some major differences were found in plasma AA profiles and metabolites between HS- and TN-condition pigs. This indicates that the HS pigs were forced to alter their metabolism, and these results provide information about mechanisms of acute HS responses relative to the recovery time.

Abstract
In livestock nutrition, natural feed additives are gaining increased attention as
alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters to improve animal performance. This
study investigated the effects of dietary turmeric supplementation on the growth
performance and gut health of weaned piglets. A total of 48 weaned piglets
(Duroc × [Landrace × Yorkshire]) were used in a 6-week feeding
trial. All piglets were allotted to two dietary treatments: corn-soybean meal
basal diet without turmeric (control) and with 1% weight per weight (w/w)
turmeric powder (turmeric). The results showed that dietary inclusion of
turmeric with the basal diet improved final body weight and total average daily
gain (p < 0.05). The concentrations of short-chain fatty
acids in the fecal samples, including acetic, butyric, and propionic acids, were
higher in the turmeric group (p < 0.05). The villus
height-to-crypt depth ratio was higher in the ileum of turmeric-fed piglets
(p = 0.04). The 16S rRNA gene sequencing of fecal
microbiota indicated that, at the phylum level, Firmicutes and
Bacteroidetes were the most predominant taxa in all fecal
samples. Bacteroidetes were significantly decreased in the
turmeric group compared to the control group (p = 0.021). At
the genus level, turmeric showed a decreased abundance of
Prevotella (p = 0.021) and an increasing
trend of Lactobacillus (p = 0.083). Among the
total detected species, nine bacterial species showed significant differences
between the two groups. The results of this study indicated that turmeric
altered the gut microbiota and short-chain fatty acid production. This suggests
that turmeric could be used as a potential alternative growth promoter for
piglets.

Abstract
The objectives of the present work were to assess the accuracy of previously published equations for predicting effects of deoxynivalenol (DON) on the growth performance changes of pigs and to update equations based on recently published data. A total of 59 data were employed for the validation of previously published equations. These data were used to update the equations. The REG and CORR procedures of SAS were used. In the present validation test, a linear bias was significant (p < 0.05), indicating that prediction errors were not consistent across the data ranges. The intercept for ΔFI (−7.75 ± 1.19, p < 0.01) representing a mean bias was less than 0, indicating that the predicted mean of ΔFI was greater than the measured mean of ΔFI. Dietary DON concentrations had negative correlations with ΔWG (r = −0.79; p < 0.01) and ΔFI (r = −0.71; p < 0.01). Updated prediction equations were: ΔWG = −5.93 × DON with r2 = 0.77 and ΔFI = −4.42 × DON with r2 = 0.68. In conclusion, the novel equations developed in this study might accurately predict effects of dietary DON on the performance changes of pigs.

Abstract
Recent studies have implicated mitochondrial disruption in podocyte dysfunction, which is a characteristic feature of primary and diabetic glomerular diseases. However, the mechanisms by which primary mitochondrial dysfunction in podocytes affects glomerular renal diseases are currently unknown. To investigate the role of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) in podocyte dysfunction, glomerular function was examined in mice carrying a loss of function mutation of the gene encoding CR6-interacting factor-1 (CRIF1), which is essential for intramitochondrial production and the subsequent insertion of OxPhos polypeptides into the inner mitochondrial membrane. Homozygotic deficiency of CRIF1 in podocytes resulted in profound and progressive albuminuria from 3 weeks of age; the CRIF1-deficient mice also developed glomerular and tubulointerstitial lesions by 10 weeks of age. Furthermore, marked glomerular sclerosis and interstitial fibrosis were observed in homozygous CRIF1-deficient mice at 20 weeks of age. In cultured mouse podocytes, loss of CRIF1 resulted in OxPhos dysfunction and marked loss or abnormal aggregation of F-actin. These findings indicate that the OxPhos status determines the integrity of podocytes and their ability to maintain a tight barrier and control albuminuria. Analyses of the glomerular function of the podocyte-specific primary OxPhos dysfunction model mice demonstrate a link between podocyte mitochondrial dysfunction, progressive glomerular sclerosis, and tubulointerstitial diseases.

Abstract
Heat stress (HS) causes adverse impacts on pig production and health. A potential
biomarker of HS is required to predict its occurrence and thereby better manage
pigs under HS. Information about the saliva metabolome in heat-stressed pigs is
limited. Therefore, this study was aimed to investigate the effects of acute HS
on the saliva metabolome and identify metabolites that could be used as
potential biomarkers. Growing pigs (n = 6, 3 boars, and 3 gilts) were raised in
a thermal neutral (TN; 25°C) environment for a 5-d adaptation period
(CON). After adaptation, the pigs were first exposed to HS (30°C; HS30)
and then exposed to higher HS (33°C; HS33) for 24 h. Saliva was collected
after adaptation, first HS, and second HS, respectively, for metabolomic
analysis using 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Four
metabolites had significantly variable importance in the projection (VIP
> 1; p < 0.05) different levels in TN compared to
HS groups from all genders (boars and gilts). However, sex-specific
characteristics affected metabolites (glutamate and leucine) by showing the
opposite results, indicating that HS was less severe in females than in males. A
decrease in creatine levels in males and an increase in creatine phosphate
levels in females would have contributed to a protective effect from protein
degradation by muscle damage. The results showed that HS led to an alteration in
metabolites related to energy and protein. Protection from muscle damage may be
attributed to the alteration in protein-related metabolites. However,
energy-related metabolites showed opposing results according to sex-specific
characteristics, such as sex hormone levels and subcutaneous fat layer. This
study had shown that saliva samples could be used as a noninvasive method to
evaluate heat-stressed pigs. And the results in this study could be contributed
to the development of a diagnostic tool as a noninvasive biomarker for managing
heat-stressed pigs.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the meat metabolite profiles related
to differences in beef quality attributes (i.e., high-marbled and low-marbled
groups) using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The beef of
different marbling scores showed significant differences in water content and
fat content. High-marbled meat had mainly higher taste compounds than
low-marbled meat. Metabolite analysis showed differences between two marbling
groups based on partial least square discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). Metabolites
identified by PLS-DA, such as N,N-dimethylglycine, creatine, lactate, carnosine,
carnitine, sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, betaine, glycine, glucose, alanine,
tryptophan, methionine, taurine, tyrosine, could be directly linked to marbling
groups. Metabolites from variable importance in projection plots were identified
and estimated high sensitivity as candidate markers for beef quality attributes.
These potential markers were involved in beef taste-related pathways including
carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism. Among these metabolites, carnosine,
creatine, glucose, and lactate had significantly higher in high-marbled meat
compared to low-marbled meat (p<0.05). Therefore, these results will
provide an important understanding of the roles of taste-related metabolites in
beef quality attributes. Our findings suggest that metabolomics analysis of
taste compounds and meat quality may be a powerful method for the discovery of
novel biomarkers underlying the quality of beef products.

PURPOSE This study aimed to validate the Sheffield Profile for Assessment and Referral to Care (SPARC) as an effective tool for screening palliative care needs among Korean cancer patients. Materials and Methods The English version of the SPARC was translated by four Korean oncologists and reconciled by a Korean language specialist and a medical oncologist fluent in English. After the first version of the Korean SPARC (K-SPARC) was developed, back-translation into English was performed by a professional translator and bilingual oncologist. The back-translated version was reviewed by the original author (S.H.A.), and modifications were made (ver. 2). The second version of the K-SPARC was tested against other questionnaires, including the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) and the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS). RESULTS Thirty patients were enrolled in the pilot trial. Fifteen were male, and the median age was 64.5 years. Six patients had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 2 or more. All patients except one were receiving chemotherapy. Regarding internal consistency, the Cronbach's α scores for physical symptoms, psychological issues, religious and spiritual issues, independency and activity, family and social issues, and treatment issues were 0.812, 0.804, 0.589, 0.843, 0.754, and 0.822, respectively. The correlation coefficients between the SPARC and FACT-G were 0.479 (p=0.007) for the physical domain and -0.130 (p=0.493) for the social domain. CONCLUSION This pilot study indicates that the K-SPARC could be a reliable tool to screen for palliative care needs among Korean cancer patients. A further study to validate our findings is ongoing.

Abstract
Background Testosterone deficiency in men is clinically associated with the development of metabolic syndrome, which manifests as obesity, hepatic steatosis, and type-2 diabetes. We investigated the effects of castration-induced testosterone deficiency on body adiposity and the expression of genes related to lipid metabolism and glucose uptake and androgen signaling in male rats fed a normal diet (ND) or a high-fat diet (HFD). Methods Changes in lipid and glucose metabolism and androgen signaling were investigated at physiological and molecular levels in the muscle, liver, and adipose tissues of non-castrated and castrated rats under ND or HFD feeding. Results Castration-induced testosterone deficiency predisposed animals on ND to early development of fatty liver by activating fatty acid (FA) synthesis, whereas HFD activated hepatic FA uptake CD36 expression, leading to the development of hepatic steatosis. In rats fed ND, castration induced muscle fat accumulation by activating CD36 expression. In the subcutaneous fat of ND-fed rats, castration increased adiposity and the expression of FA synthesis-related genes, but it decreased glucose transporter gene expression. In the abdominal fat of rats fed ND, castration increased adiposity by upregulating FA synthesis-related genes, and HFD promoted adiposity by inducing FA uptake, glucose transporter, and FA synthesis-related gene expression. In rats fed ND, castration decreased body growth and muscle weight and downregulated the expression of genes androgen signaling in the longissimus dorsi muscle. Conclusions Testosterone deficiency increases adiposity in a tissue-specific and diet-dependent manner. Testosterone deficiency decreases body and muscle weights and downregulates androgen signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE As intraarterial thrombectomy (IAT) has been actively practiced, blood biomarkers that can predict outcomes after IAT have drawn attention. Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) is a stress-responsive cytokine and the levels are increased during inflammation or other pathological conditions of various tissues, including the brain. However, GDF-15 levels have not been reported as a biomarker for IAT outcomes. This study was performed to evaluate whether GDF-15 was related to the extent of brain damage and whether it could predict patient prognosis after IAT. METHODS Patients who showed large arterial occlusion and significant diffusion-perfusion mismatch on imaging underwent IAT. A total of 62 patients who underwent IAT and had blood samples for GDF-15 measurements were enrolled from July 2013 to May 2015. We assessed the infarct severity by consecutive changes on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) during admission and the size of the infarction on brain imaging. Modified Rankin Scale scores (mRS) from 0 to 2 were considered good outcomes, representing functional independence at discharge and three months later. RESULTS The levels of GDF-15 at the time of admission were significantly correlated with the NIHSS scored at 24 hours (r = 0.306, p = 0.016), three days after IAT (r = 0.261, p = 0.041), and at discharge (r = 0.266, p = 0.037), as well as the infarct size on diffusion-weighted image taken 24 h after IAT (r = 0.452, p = 0.001), but the levels were not correlated with the initial NIHSS or the infarct size before IAT. Multiple logistic regression showed that GDF-15 levels were an independent predictor of functional independence (mRS 0 - 2) at discharge (p = 0.028) and three months after IAT (p = 0.019). Other factors that could predict prognosis were good collateral status on the initial brain angiography and rapid recanalization within six hours from symptom onset. CONCLUSION The GDF-15 level at the time of admission showed a significant positive correlation with the severity of cerebral damage and clinical outcome after IAT. This suggests that GDF-15 can provide useful prognostic information for patients who successfully underwent IAT in an emergency setting.

Abstract
Beef quality is influenced by the fattening period. Therefore, meat metabolomics profiles from the different fattening periods (e.g., short-term vs. long-term) were analyzed for identify potential indicators using nuclear magnetic resonance. Additionally, blood, free fatty acid, sensory, and mineral compositions in Korean steers were determined. Blood, free fatty acid, and mineral concentrations showed significant differences between short-term and long-term groups that were fed different diets. However, there were no sensory differences in the two fattening groups. Additionally, the metabolic profiles of meats were clearly separated based on multivariate orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis. Six metabolites of variable importance in the projection plot were identified and showed high sensitivity as candidate markers for meat characteristics. In particular, lactate, carnosine, and creatine could be directly linked to scientific indicators of the fattening stage (31 vs. 28 mo) of meat. Our findings suggest that the metabolomics approach could be a powerful method for the detection of novel signatures underlying the managing period of beef.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and Aims
Ischemia-reperfusion (I-R)-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) are thought to be a major factor in the development of acute renal injury by promoting the initial tubular damage. NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is a well-known antioxidant protein that regulates ROS generation. We investigate whether NQO1 modulates the renal I-R injury.
Method
C57BL/6N NQO1-deficient mice (NQO1/) were generated. Mice were sacrificed at 4, 12, 24, and 48 h after the surgical procedure. I-R was performed using vascular clamp for 30min. We analyzed renal function, oxidative stress, and tubular apoptosis after I-R injury.
Results
NQO1/ mice showed increased blood urea nitrogen and creatinine levels, tubular damage, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. In the kidneys of NQO1/ mice, the cellular NADPH/NADPþ ratio was significantly higher and NOX activity was markedly higher than in those of NQO1þ/þ mice. The activation of NQO1 by β-lapachone (βL) significantly improved renal dysfunction and reduced tubular cell damage, oxidative stress, and apoptosis by renal I-R. Moreover, the βL treatment significantly lowered the cellular NADPH/NADPþ ratio and dramatically reduced NOX activity in the kidneys after IRI. From these results, it was concluded that NQO1 has a protective role against renal injury induced by I-R and that this effect appears to be mediated by decreased NOX activity via cellular NADPH/NADPþ modulation.
Conclusion
NQO1 activation might be beneficial for ameliorating renal injury induced by I-R.

Abstract
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are critical for optimal brain health and are involved in psychiatric and neurological ailments. Here, we report the effects of higher endogenous omega-3 PUFA on memory impairment in the hippocampus by studying mice with transgenic expression of the fat-1 gene that converts omega-6 to omega-3 PUFA. We performed Y-maze and passive avoidance tests to evaluate the memory function of fat-1 mice treated with scopolamine. Fat-1 mice showed induced alternation in the Y-maze test and increased latency in the passive avoidance test. The effects of scopolamine on hippocampal neurogenesis were confirmed by increases in the number of Ki-67- and DCX-positive cells in the fat-1 mice. Western blotting revealed increased brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and phosphorylated cAMP response element-binding protein levels, and lower scopolamine-induced apoptosis based on the cleaved-caspase 3 protein level in fat-1 mice. These findings suggest that higher endogenous omega-3 PUFA prevented granular cell loss, increased BDNF signaling, and decreased apoptosis signaling in scopolamine-treated fat-1 mice. These processes may underlie granular cell survival and suggest potential therapeutic targets for memory impairment.

Abstract
The gut microbiome influences the health and well-being of dogs. However, little is known about the impact of breed on the fecal microbiome composition in dogs. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the differences in the fecal microbiome in three breeds of dog fed and housed under the same conditions, namely eight Maltese (8.0 ± 0.1 years), eight Miniature Schnauzer (8.0 ± 0.0 years), and nine Poodle dogs (8.0 ± 0.0 years). Fresh fecal samples were collected from the dogs and used to extract metagenomic DNA. The composition of the fecal microbiome was evaluated by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing on the MiSeq platform. A total of 840,501 sequences were obtained from the 25 fecal samples and classified as Firmicutes (32.3-97.3% of the total sequences), Bacteroidetes (0.1-62.6%), Actinobacteria (0.2-14.7%), Fusobacteria (0.0-5.7%), and Proteobacteria (0.0-5.1%). The relative abundance of Firmicutes was significantly lower in the Maltese dog breed than that in the other two breeds, while that of Fusobacteria was significantly higher in the Maltese than in the Miniature Schnauzer breed. At the genus level, the relative abundance of Streptococcus, Fusobacterium, Turicibacter, Succinivibrio, and Anaerobiospirillum differed significantly among the three dog breeds. These genera had no correlation with age, diet, sex, body weight, vaccination history, or parasite protection history. Within a breed, some of these genera had a correlation with at least one blood chemistry value. This study indicates that the composition of the fecal microbiome in dogs is affected by breed.

Abstract
Simple Summary The ruminal microbiome affects various metabolic processes associated with animal development; however, few studies have focused on its correlation with marbling. Results of the present study show differences in ruminal microbiomes among Hanwoo Korean beef cattle, which have low or high marbling scores. By elucidating the effect of the ruminal microbiome on the marbling of Hanwoo, differentially abundant microbial taxa, ruminal taxonomic drivers of lipid metabolism, and the correlation with meat quality indices, the present study provides insights into the potential effects of microbial factors on marbling in beef cattle. Abstract This study demonstrated the potential effects of the rumen microbiota on the deposition of intramuscular fat, known as marbling. Previous studies on fatty acid metabolism in beef cattle have mostly focused on biohydrogenating rumen bacteria, whereas those on the overall rumen microbiota—to understand their roles in marbling—have not been systematically performed. The rumen microbiota of 14 Korean beef cattle (Hanwoo), which showed similar carcass characteristics and blood metabolites but different marbling scores, were analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The rumen samples were grouped into two extreme marbling score groups of host animals as follows: LMS, marbling score≤ 4 or HMS, marbling score ≥7. Species richness tended to be higher in the HMS group, whereas the overall microbiota differed between LMS and HMS groups. RFP12, Verrucomicrobia, Oscillospira, Porphyromonadaceae, and Paludibacter were differentially abundant in the HMS group, whereas Olsenella was abundant in the LMS group. Some marbling-associated bacterial taxa also contributed to the enrichment of two lipid metabolic pathways including “alpha-linolenic acid metabolism” and “fatty acid biosynthesis” in the HMS microbiome. Taxonomic drivers of fatty acid biosynthesis, particularly in the rumen microbiome of high-marbled meat, could thus be further studied to increase the intramuscular fat content.

profile, and meat quality of broiler chickens from 1 to 5 wk of age. A total of
210 male broiler chickens (Ross 308) at one-day of age were randomly allotted to
3 dietary treatments (10 replicates and 7 birds/group): a basal control diet
(CON), the basal diet in which the SBO was replaced by 50% (50 BSFLO) or 100%
(100 BSFLO) of BSFLO. The growth performance, physical measurements and chemical
traits of leg meat, and sensory analysis of breast meat were not influenced by
diets. However, the relative weight (g/kg) of gizzard of CON was significantly
higher (14.85, 12.52, and 13.02 for CON, 50 BSFLO, and 100 BSFLO;
p < 0.05) than that of other treatments. As expected,
the FA profile of breast meat was affected by BSFLO inclusion. The proportion
(%) of saturated fatty acid (SFA) was increased (27.16, 27.58, and 28.72 for
CON, 50 BSFLO, and 100 BSFLO; p < 0.05) by BSFLO inclusion
and the percentage (%) of MUFA was also increased (43.36, 44.58, and 48.55 for
CON, 50 BSFLO, and 100 BSFLO; p < 0.01). On the contrary,
the proportion (%) of PUFA was decreased (29.49, 27.84, and 22.74 for CON, 50
BSFLO, and 100 BSFLO; p < 0.01). In conclusion, the present
study suggests that the replacement of BSFLO did not show an adverse effect on
growth performance and it could be an ingredient as a dietary fat source for a
broiler diet.

Abstract
The pre-treatment condition affects on the element analysis of inductively
coupled plasma (ICP). In this study the pre-treatment condition of ICP has been
studied to quantify elements in dog’s hair. The hair samples were
collected from twelve female Beagles by clipping them into 1 or 2 cm at the back
neck. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of elements in hairs were
performed by using ICP. By ICP nine elements were qualitatively detected and
quantitatively analyzed (Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Na, P, Se, Zn). The measured amounts
of elements were compared between 3 step and 2 step procedures which were with
and without the acetone based washing step. The quantitative analysis showed
that the concentrations of K, Na, P, and Se were significantly decreased in hair
samples with acetone-based washing (p < 0.005 or 0.001)
unlike those without the acetone-based washing. It implied that some minerals
are lost by the acetone based washing during the sample preparation step.
Therefore, the acetone based washing process is not suitable for quantifying
elements in dog’s hair. In addition, the results of qualitative and
quantitative analysis were compared. Although there was a difference in absolute
values of elemental contents in hair, the results of qualitative and
quantitative analysis were significantly correlated each other. This finding
suggested that the results of qualitative analysis can be used to monitor
elemental contents in dog’s hair.

Abstract
Blood metabolome can be used to estimate the growth, nutrition, and health status of livestock. The objective of this study is to find the differently expressed metabolome according to ages and nutritional levels in feeds to predict and control cattle performances. We used Hanwoo cattle at different ages that were fed diets with different nutritional levels. One hundred thirty two blood samples were collected from 22 Hanwoo steers at 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28 months and compared their blood metabolomes by using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. The results of our comparative analysis showed clear discriminations in blood metabolomic profiles among the ages but not between nutritional levels. Based on the results of t-test, fold changes, and partial least square discriminant analysis, 19 metabolites showed high sensitivity for ages. Alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, betaine, carnitine, choline, citrulline, creatine, cysteine, glutamine, glycine, histidine, lactate, leucine, proline, pyruvate, serine, tryptophan, and valine could be directly linked to ages. In particular, three metabolic pathways, ammonia recycling; urea cycle; and glycine and serine metabolism were shown to be enriched with the ages (FDR < 0.05, P < 0.05). Thus, the differently expressed metabolites and their related metabolic pathways in the blood plasma may contribute to the biomarkers which indicate the potential for early growing and fattening of indiviual beef cattle. Our findings may allow for better understanding of the mechanism of cattle growth physiology and metabolism, which is necessary for selecting appropriate feeding strategies to improve beef quality and productivity.

Abstract
Overweight and obesity induce serious health problems that exert negative effects
on dog’s welfare. Body condition score (BCS) is a common method to
evaluate the body fat mass in animals. By palpating and observing fats under the
skin it is possible to predict animal’s body fat accumulation condition.
BCS is also a useful tool to estimate body fat composition in dogs. However, BCS
can be subjective when it was performed by non-professionals like pet’s
owners. To develop a method to avoid the misevaluation of BCS twenty-four
Beagles were enrolled and performed BCS evaluation. In addition, the length of
chest and abdominal girths were measured. In correlation analysis, the sizes of
chest and abdominal girth were significantly correlated with BCS. Especially,
the difference and ratio of the chest and abdominal length were highly
correlated with the BCS. With that, we suggested that this simple measurement of
chest and abdominal girths by a measuring tape would be an effective method to
estimate BCS scores in dogs that helps non-professionals to manage their own
dog’s nutritional condition by monitoring body fat accumulation
condition.

Abstract
Deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEN) can seriously affect animal health, with potentially severe economic losses. Previous studies have demonstrated that gut microbiota plays a significant role in detoxification. We analyzed the colon contents from three groups of pigs (fed either a standard diet, or a diet with 8 mg/kg DON or ZEN). Bacterial 16S rRNA gene amplicons were obtained from the colon contents, and sequenced using next-generation sequencing on the MiSeq platform. Overall, 2,444,635 gene sequences were generated, with ≥2000 sequences examined. Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were the dominant phyla in all three groups. The sequences of Lactobacillus, Megasphaera, and Faecalibacterium genera, and the unclassified Clostridiaceae family, represented more than 1.2% of the total, with significantly different abundances among the groups. Lactobacillus was especially more abundant in the DON (7.6%) and ZEN (2.7%) groups than in the control (0.2%). A total of 48,346 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the three groups. Two OTUs, classified as Lactobacillus, were the most dominant in the DON and ZEN groups. The abundances of the remaining OTUs were also significantly different among the groups. Thus, the mycotoxin-contaminated feed significantly affected the colon microbiota, especially Lactobacillus, which was the most abundant. Therefore, we speculate that Lactobacillus plays a major role in detoxification of these mycotoxins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little is known about the correlation between microbiological yield and radiographic activity, on chest computed tomography (CT), in suspected pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) cases, despite CT being widely used, clinically. METHODS We used multicenter retrospective data, obtained from medical records, focusing on the diagnostic performance for definite PTB. We categorized patients into four groups, by radiographic activity: definitely active, probably active, indeterminate activity, and probably inactive. RESULTS Of the 650 patients included, 316 had culture-confirmed PTB; 190 (29.2%), 323 (49.7%), 70 (10.8%), and 67 (10.3%) were classified into the definitely active, probably active, indeterminate activity, and probably inactive groups, respectively. The corresponding observed culture rates for CT radiographic activity were 61.6%, 60.7%, 4.3% and 0%, respectively. When not only culture rates but TB-PCR and histological results were taken into consideration as definite PTB, it showed 66.6%, 67.2%, 14.3%, and 0% of each CT radiographic activity, respectively. Regarding the diagnostic performance for definite PTB, radiographic activity displayed high sensitivity (97.1%, 95% confidence interval (CI), 94.6-98.5) and negative predictive values (92.7%, 95% CI, 86.6-96.2), considered definitely and probably active PTB. Apart from PTB, other etiologies, according to radiographic activity, were predominantly respiratory infections such as bacterial pneumonia and non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection. CONCLUSIONS Radiographic activity showed good diagnostic performance, and can be used easily in clinical practice. However, clinicians should consider other possibilities, because radiologic images do not confirm microbiological PTB.

Abstract
Objective This study was performed to understand transcriptional changes in the genes involved in gluconeogenesis and glycolysis pathways following castration of bulls. Methods Twenty Korean bulls were weaned at average 3 months of age, and castrated at 6 months. Liver tissues were collected from bulls (n = 10) and steers (n = 10) of Korean cattle, and hepatic gene expression levels were measured using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. We examined hepatic transcription levels of genes encoding enzymes for irreversible reactions in both gluconeogenesis and glycolysis as well as genes encoding enzymes for the utilization of several glucogenic substrates. Correlations between hepatic gene expression and carcass characteristics were performed to understand their associations. Results Castration increased the mRNA (3.6 fold; p<0.01) and protein levels (1.4 fold; p< 0.05) of pyruvate carboxylase and mitochondrial phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase genes (1.7 fold; p<0.05). Hepatic mRNA levels of genes encoding the glycolysis enzymes were not changed by castration. Castration increased mRNA levels of both lactate dehydrogenase A (1.5 fold; p<0.05) and lactate dehydrogenase B (2.2 fold; p<0.01) genes for lactate utilization. Castration increased mRNA levels of glycerol kinase (2.7 fold; p<0.05) and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 1 (1.5 fold; p<0.05) genes for glycerol utilization. Castration also increased mRNA levels of propionyl-CoA carboxylase beta (mitochondrial) (3.5 fold; p<0.01) and acyl-CoA synthetase short chain family member 3 (1.3 fold; p = 0.06) genes for propionate incorporation. Conclusion Castration increases transcription levels of critical genes coding for enzymes involved in irreversible gluconeogenesis reactions from pyruvate to glucose and enzymes responsible for incorporation of glucogenic substrates including lactate, glycerol, and propionate. Hepatic gluconeogenic gene expression levels were associated with intramuscular fat deposition.

Abstract
Objective Fusarium mycotoxins deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEN), common contaminants in the feed of farm animals, cause immune function impairment and organ inflammation. Consequently, the main objective of this study was to elucidate DON and ZEN effects on the mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and other immune related genes in the kidneys of piglets. Methods Fifteen 6-week-old piglets were randomly assigned to three dietary treatments for 4 weeks: control diet, and diets contaminated with either 8 mg DON/kg feed or 0.8 mg ZEN/kg feed. Kidney samples were collected after treatment, and RNA-seq was used to investigate the effects on immune-related genes and gene networks. Results A total of 186 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened (120 upregulated and 66 downregulated). Gene ontology analysis revealed that the immune response, and cellular and metabolic processes were significantly controlled by these DEGs. The inflammatory stimulation might be an effect of the following enriched Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway analysis found related to immune and disease responses: cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, chemokine signaling pathway, toll-like receptor signaling pathway, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), tuberculosis, Epstein-Barr virus infection, and chemical carcinogenesis. The effects of DON and ZEN on genome-wide expression were assessed, and it was found that the DEGs associated with inflammatory cytokines (interleukin 10 receptor, beta, chemokine [C-X-C motif] ligand 9, CXCL10, chemokine [C-C motif] ligand 4), proliferation (insulin like growth factor binding protein 4, IgG heavy chain, receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase C, cytochrome P450 1A1, ATP-binding cassette sub-family 8), and other immune response networks (lysozyme, complement component 4 binding protein alpha, oligoadenylate synthetase 2, signaling lymphocytic activation molecule-9, α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase, Ig lambda chain c region, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase, isozyme 4, carboxylesterase 1), were suppressed by DON and ZEN. Conclusion In summary, our results indicate that high concentrations of DON and ZEN suppress the inflammatory response in kidneys, leading to potential effects on immune homeostasis.

Abstract
Objective The Fusarium mycotoxins of deoxynivalenol (DON) and zerolenone (ZEN) cause health hazards for both humans and farm animals. Therefore, the main intention of this study was to reveal DON and ZEN effects on the mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and other immune related genes in the liver of piglets. Methods In the present study, 15 six-week-old piglets were randomly assigned to the following three different dietary treatments for 4 weeks: control diet, diet containing 8 mg DON/kg feed, and diet containing 0.8 mg ZEN/kg feed. After 4 weeks, liver samples were collected and sequenced using RNA-Seq to investigate the effects of the mycotoxins on genes and gene networks associated with the immune systems of the piglets. Results Our analysis identified a total of 249 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which included 99 upregulated and 150 downregulated genes in both the DON and ZEN dietary treatment groups. After biological pathway analysis, the DEGs were determined to be significantly enriched in gene ontology terms associated with many biological pathways, including immune response and cellular and metabolic processes. Consistent with inflammatory stimulation due to the mycotoxin-contaminated diet, the following Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathways, which were related to disease and immune responses, were found to be enriched in the DEGs: allograft rejection pathway, cell adhesion molecules, graft-versus-host disease, autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD), type I diabetes mellitus, human T-cell leukemia lymphoma virus infection, and viral carcinogenesis. Genome-wide expression analysis revealed that DON and ZEN treatments downregulated the expression of the majority of the DEGs that were associated with inflammatory cytokines (interleukin 10 receptor, beta, chemokine [C-X-C motif] ligand 9), proliferation (insulin-like growth factor 1, major facilitator superfamily domain containing 2A, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2, lipase G, and salt inducible kinase 1), and other immune response networks (paired immunoglobulin-like type 2 receptor beta, Src-like-adaptor-1 [SLA1], SLA3, SLA5, SLA7, claudin 4, nicotinamide N-methyltransferase, thyrotropin-releasing hormone degrading enzyme, ubiquitin D, histone H2B type 1, and serum amyloid A). Conclusion In summary, our results demonstrated that high concentrations DON and ZEN disrupt immune-related processes in the liver.
