GENE EXPRESSION PROFILING IN OVARIES AND ASSOCIATION ANALYSES REVEAL HEP21 AS A CANDIDATE GENE FOR SEXUAL MATURITY IN CHICKENS

Gene Expression Profiling in Ovaries and Association Analyses Reveal HEP21 as a Candidate Gene for Sexual Maturity in Chickens

The age of onset of sexual maturity is an important reproductive trait in chickens.In this study, we explored candidate genes associated with sexual maturity and ovary development in chickens.We performed DGE RNA-sequencing analyses of ovaries of pre-laying (P-F-O1, L-F-O1) and laying (P-F-O2, L-F-O2) hens of two sub-breeds of Ningdu Yellow chicken

Long Noncoding RNA GAS5 Contained in Exosomes Derived from Human Adipose Stem Cells Promotes Repair and Modulates Inflammation in a Chronic Dermal Wound Healing Model

Chronic recalcitrant wounds result from delayed or slowed healing processes.Underlying inflammation is a substantial risk factor for impaired dermal wound healing and often leads to chronic wound-related sequelae.Human adipose stem cells (hASCs) have shown tremendous potential in regenerative medicine.The goal of this project was to improve the out
