Breast Meat Fatty Acid Profiling and Proteomic Analysis of Beijing-You Chicken During the Laying Period

Jian Zhang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of laying age on fatty acid composition and metabolism in chicken meat. The results revealed that increasing hen ages led to increased contents of both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. The proteomic analyses identified differentially expressed proteins related to FA/lipid-related metabolisms and highlighted key pathways involved in FA synthesis and lipid metabolism. The findings provided a better understanding of how laying age influences meat quality in chickens.

Epigenetics and Early Life Stress: Experimental Brood Size Affects DNA Methylation in Great Tits (Parus major)

Bernice Sepers et al.

Summary: Early developmental conditions have long-lasting effects on an individual's behavior, physiology, and fitness, with potential mechanisms including DNA methylation. In a study on great tits, it was found that brood size can lead to differential DNA methylation levels in genes related to development, growth, metabolism, behavior, and cognition, indicating a direct impact of early life stress on epigenetic regulation. Further research is needed to explore how these changes affect phenotypic traits and parental fitness.

Epigenetic effects of parasites and pesticides on captive and wild nestling birds

Sabrina M. McNew et al.

Summary: The study examined the effects of an invasive ectoparasite on DNA methylation of Galapagos mockingbirds using epiGBS. While parasitism did not show significant effects on mockingbirds' methylation, exposure to permethrin had clear impacts on zebra finches. This suggests a role for epigenetic processes in mediating sublethal nontarget effects of pyrethroid exposure in vertebrates.
