Chicken optineurin suppresses MDA5-mediated interferon β production

Doxycycline Induces Mitophagy and Suppresses Production of Interferon-β in IPEC-J2 Cells

Previous reports have demonstrated that the second-generation tetracycline derivative doxycycline (DOX) interrupts mitochondrial proteostasis and physiology, inhibits proliferation of many cell types, and induces apoptosis. However, the effects of DOX, which is widely used in porcine husbandry by feed, on the porcine intestinal epithelium are unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that DOX dam...

O-10: Sperm Mediated Gene Transfer Using Adjuvant Preserving Fertility for Production of Transgenic Chicken Expressing

Background: Low uptake of exogenous DNA by sperm and reduced number of fertilized oocyte by transfected sperm are the major obstacles for progression of sperm mediated gene transfer. Therefore, the modification of sperm mediated gene transfer procedure needs to be required. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of FuGene 6 compare to lipofection in transfection medium for int...

Selective inhibition of PCAF suppresses microglial-mediated β-amyloid neurotoxicity.

Recent studies have emphasized the functional role of the P300/CBP-associated factor (PCAF) enzyme in resistance to β-amyloid (Aβ)-mediated neurotoxicity; however, the underlying mechanisms through which PCAF regulates inflammation and neurotoxicity have not yet been elucidated. In this study, we used computer-based molecular docking simulations to perform structure-based artificial screening f...
