Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship between pectoralis major muscle histology and quality traits of chicken meat

TL;DR: Almost all breast fillets of heavy broiler chickens produced under intensive farming systems had histological lesions, which reflected on the chemical composition of the meat and the impaired water holding/binding capacities of theMeat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional and neurochemical changes of the gastrointestinal tract in a rodent model of Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: Results suggest that a disturbed distal gut transit, reminiscent of constipation in the clinical setting, may occur as a consequence of a reduced propulsive motility, likely due to an impairment of a nitric oxide-mediated descending inhibition during peristalsis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomical evidence for ileal Peyer's patches innervation by enteric nervous system: a potential route for prion neuroinvasion?

TL;DR: The results suggest that enteric and sympathetic neurons are involved during the first stage of neuroinvasion, with neurons connecting to them acting as potential carriers of PrPSc to the central nervous system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterisation of neurons expressing calbindin immunoreactivity in the ileum of the unweaned and mature sheep.

TL;DR: Enteric neuron types expressing immunoreactivity for the calcium-binding protein calbindin D28k (CALB) in cryostat sections and whole-mount preparations of myenteric (MP) and submucosal (SMP) plexuses of sheep ileum were identified and its co-localisation with various neural markers was studied immunohistochemically.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Olfactory Receptor OR51E1 Is Present along the Gastrointestinal Tract of Pigs, Co-Localizes with Enteroendocrine Cells and Is Modulated by Intestinal Microbiota

TL;DR: Age, pathogen challenge and dietary manipulations influencing the gastrointestinal luminal microenvironment significantly affect the OR51E1 gene expression in GIT tissues presumably in association with the release of microbial metabolites.
