Polystyrene microplastics disrupt adrenal steroid synthesis in male mice via mitochondrial dysfunction by Ying Xiong, Zhe Chen, Hanmin Xiang, Yi Liu, Yanlin Wang

“…In vivo, we further observed that chronic exposure to PS-MPs (0.25, 0.5 and 1 mg/d for 4 weeks) could induce abnormal mitochondrial morphology and functional disruptions of adrenal glands in male mice, along with an imbalance in cellular oxidative stress, manifested as increased level of reactive oxygen species, diminished antioxidant activity (glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase). …”

Effects of Endurance Training and Chlorogenic Acid on Oxidative and Nitrosative Stress Markers in Prediabetic Male Mice by Sahar Ghasemi Pour, Sayyed M. Marandi

“…This study aimed to investigate the effects of endurance exercise and chlorogenic acid on oxidative and nitrosative stress indicators in skeletal muscle tissue of male C57BL/6 mice. Methods: A total of 35 mice were randomly divided into two groups: a high-fat diet group to induce pre-diabetes and a normal diet group. …”

A study on the differences in the gut microbiota and metabolism between male and female mice in different stress periods by Yajun Qiao, Yajun Qiao, Yajun Qiao, Juan Guo, Qi Xiao, Jianv Wang, Jianv Wang, Xingfang Zhang, Xingfang Zhang, Xinxin Liang, Xinxin Liang, Lixin Wei, Lixin Wei, Hongtao Bi, Tingting Gao, Tingting Gao

“…The main purpose of this study was to explore the gender differences in the intestinal tract of male and female depressed mice. In this study, chronic restraint stress (CRS) mouse models were used to simulate chronic stress, and behavioral tests were conducted, including the open field test (OFT), tail suspension test (TST) and forced swimming test (FST). …”

Single, but not mixed dietary fibers suppress body weight gain and adiposity in high fat-fed mice by Swang M. Shallangwa, Alexander W. Ross, Peter J. Morgan

“…Mechanistically it is likely that the single 10% fiber dose shifted selected bacteria above some threshold abundance, required to suppress body weight, which was not achieved by the 10% Mix, composed of 4 fibers each at 2.5%. Plasma levels of the gut hormone PYY were elevated by 10% pectin and FOS, but not 10% mixed fibers, and similarly RNA seq revealed some distinct effects of the 10% single fibers on gut epithelial gene expression. …”

A visual cortical-lateral posterior thalamic nucleus circuit regulates depressive-like behaviors in male mice by Fangfang Wu, Chenxi Gu, Rui Xu, Junwei Ma, Lei Gao, Youjiao Zhang, Siyuan Bu, Qingbo Lu, Te Zhao, Yijun Han, Chen Guo, Yihui Cui, Jianhua Ding, Gang Hu, Zhijun Zhang

“…Here, we demonstrate that the V1, specifically the lateral posterior nucleus of the thalamus (LP)-projecting V1 glutamatergic subpopulation (GluV1→LP neurons), shows reduced activity after chronic restraint stress (CRS) in male mice, leading to depressive-like behaviors. …”

Factors Associated with Male Partner Support During Pregnancy and Child Birth in Kabale District. by Niwarinda, Denesi

“…Both predictor variables that included health facility service factors, social –cultural factors and demographics as well as support as an outcome were assessed using a semi-structured questionnaire. Quantitative data generated from the field was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics and presented in frequencies and percentages, and logistics regression was used to trace the associations between study variables and male partner support during pregnancy and child birth at 0.05 level of significance. …”

The mitochondrial functional characteristics and microstructure play an important role in yak meat color during wet curing by Zhuo Wang, Jibing Ma, Guoyuan Ma, Qunli Yu, Ling Han, Li Zhang

“…The study investigated the impact of low-dose sodium nitrite on yak meat color and mitochondrial functional characteristics during the wet curing. The results showed that sodium nitrite significantly enhanced the redness (a⁎ value) of yak meat by increasing the activities of mitochondrial complexes I, II, III and IV, which are critical for electron transport and aerobic respiration. …”
