Transcriptomic characterization of the functional and morphological development of the rumen wall in weaned lambs fed a diet containing yeast co-cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisia... by Zixuan Xu, Lan Yang, Hui Chen, Pengxiang Bai, Xiao Li, Dacheng Liu

“…Ultimately, these results suggest that dietary supplementation with NM has driven the degradation of fatty acids, the induction of oxidative phosphorylation, the acceleration of lipid metabolism, the production of ATP to sustain ruminal growth, and the maintenance of intracellular NADH/NAD+ homeostasis on weaned lambs and is superior to single yeast fermentation.DiscussionThese results thus offer a theoretical foundation for further studies examining the mechanisms through which NM cultures can influence ruminal development in lambs.…”
