The muscle protein synthetic response following corn protein ingestion does not differ from milk protein in healthy, young adults by Philippe J. M. Pinckaers, Michelle E. G. Weijzen, Lisanne H. P. Houben, Antoine H. Zorenc, Imre W. K. Kouw, Lisette C. P. G. M. de Groot, Lex. B. Verdijk, Tim Snijders, Luc J. C. van Loon

“…Corn protein has a leucine content that is highest among most plant-derived proteins and it even exceeds the levels observed in animal-derived proteins such as whey protein. Therefore, this study aimed to compare muscle protein synthesis rates following the ingestion of 30 g corn protein and a 30 g blend of corn plus milk protein with 30 g milk protein. …”

Maternal chitosan oligosaccharide supplementation during late gestation and lactation optimizes placental function in sows and intestinal function in 21-day-old IUGR suckling pigle... by Xintao Wang, Xintao Wang, Tingting Fang, Tingting Fang, Daiwen Chen, Daiwen Chen, Junning Pu, Junning Pu, Gang Tian, Gang Tian, Jun He, Jun He, Ping Zheng, Ping Zheng, Xiangbing Mao, Xiangbing Mao, Aimin Wu, Aimin Wu, Bing Yu, Bing Yu

“…Maternal dietary supplementation with COS also significantly up-regulated the expression levels of GLUT1, GLUT3, and VEGFA mRNA in the placenta of IUGR piglets compared to those in control group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, there was a significant decrease in MDA content and a significant increase in GSH content in the placenta of IUGR piglets from COS sows compared to those from control group (p < 0.05). …”

Initial pig developmental stage influences intestinal organoid growth but not cellular composition by Camille Duchesne, Gwénaëlle Randuineau, Laurence Le Normand, Véronique Romé, Samia Laraqui, Alexis Pierre Arnaud, Gaëlle Boudry

“…Indeed, when ISC were derived from young piglets, the ratio of organoids to spheroids was greater (p < 0.05), spheroids were larger during the primary culture but smaller after two passages (p < 0.05) and organoids were smaller after one passage (p > 0.05) compared to ISC from older pigs. Finally, no difference in cellular composition, evaluated by immunostaining of markers of the major intestinal cell types (absorptive, enteroendocrine and goblet cells) was observed between organoids originating from 7‐ or 180‐day‐old pigs, but differences between intestinal site origins were noticed. …”

Multifunctional Near-Infrared Luminescence Performance of Nd³⁺ Doped SrSnO₃ Phosphor by Dejian Hou, Jin-Yan Li, Rui Huang, Wenxing Zhang, Yi Zhang, Zhenxu Lin, Hongliang Li, Jianhong Dong, Huihong Lin, Lei Zhou

“…The concentration-dependent luminescence properties, temperature dependent emission, and the luminescence decay curves of Nd³⁺ in the SrSnO₃ host were also studied. The Nd³⁺ doped SrSnO₃ phosphors exhibit exceptional thermal stability; the integrated emission intensity can retain approximately 66% at 423 K compared to room temperature. …”
