Vaccination has the potential to decrease swine influenza diversification by restricting influenza virus co-infections and reassortment events in pigs.
The heterogeneity in molecule and function of three main cell types of smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts from both different anatomical sites of pig skin was comprehensively exposited.
The double-gene-knockout pig is a valuable model to help understand the mechanisms of CD163 and pAPN in the infection of multiple viruses and offers excellent breeding materials for disease-resistant pigs.
Transgenic expression of glucanase, xylanase and phytase in pigs enhances growth performance and reduces nitrogen/phosphorus emission, and offers a very valuable biological strategy for sustainable resource utilization and environmental protection in the pork industry.
ENU mutagenesis in pigs is an efficient strategy to introduce mutations at the whole-genome level and mutants have been generated on a large scale for agricultural production and biomedical research.
Gut microbiota reshaped by myostatin gene variation has a positive effect on skeletal muscle growth by activating GPR43 through valeric acid, as a metabolite of gut microbiota.
