Population structure, selection signal and introgression of gamecocks revealed by whole genome sequencing by Naiyi Xu, Linyun Zhang, Feifan Chen, Zhengfu Feng, Jiangtao Zheng, DongHua Li, Yongju Zhao, Xiangtao Kang

“…Among these candidate genes, ETV1, DGKB, AGMO, MEOX2, ISPD and PLCB4 are related to the growth and muscle development, fighting performance and neurodevelopment of gamecocks. Furthermore, we detected the introgression event at the MYBPHL region from the Gallus sonneratii into Euramerican gamecocks and at the CPZ gene region from the Gallus gallus gallus into multiple gamecock populations, respectively, indicating the introgression from the wild junglefowl may impact the skeletal and muscle development as well as aggressive behavior of gamecocks. …”

Sex-specific effects of prenatal bisphenol A exposure on transcriptome-interactome profiles of autism candidate genes in neural stem cells from offspring hippocampus by Kasidit Kasitipradit, Surangrat Thongkorn, Songphon Kanlayaprasit, Thanit Saeliw, Pattanachat Lertpeerapan, Pawinee Panjabud, Depicha Jindatip, Valerie W. Hu, Takako Kikkawa, Noriko Osumi, Tewarit Sarachana

“…This study investigates the effects of prenatal BPA exposure on neural stem cells (NSCs) from the hippocampi of rat offspring, a brain region critical for neurodevelopment and implicated in ASD. Pregnant rats were administered with BPA or vehicle control once daily via oral gavage from gestational day 1 until parturition. …”

Patient experience and burden of haemolytic disease of the foetus and newborn: a systematic review by P. Maurice, J. McCallion, M. Fitzgibbon, J. N. Barthelmes, W. Karmous, E. J. Hardy, S. A. Mitchell, C. R. Mitchell, J. Lee, W. Noel, Andras Borsi, J. M. Jouannic

“…Results A total of 26 relevant publications were identified for inclusion in the SR, consisting of one study that directly measured Health Related Quality of Life, 9 studies reporting on proxy outcomes for patient burden and 18 studies reporting on economic burden (this includes two double-counted studies reporting more than one outcome type). Neurodevelopment, academic development, behaviour and personality were assessed as proxy outcomes for patient burden given the limited identification of patient-reported outcome data. …”
