Post-operative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is associated with morbidity, mortality and increased cost of medical care. However, the neuropathogenesis and targeted interventions of POCD remain largely to be determined. We have found that the peripheral surgical wounding induces an age-dependent Aβ accumulation, neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment in aged mice. Pro-inflammatory cytokine i...

To investigate the effects of lipid sources on growth performance and intestinal health, 72 weaned pigs were randomly allocated to three treatments. Pigs fed with a corn–soybean meal diet containing 2% soybean oil (SO), or fish–palm–rice mixture (FPRO), coconut–palm–rice (CPRO). The trial lasted for 28 days; blood tissue samples collected. results showed that crude fat digestibility FPRO group ...

Abstract Introduction The polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (PIGR) is a transmembrane protein, which transports (pIg) across the epithelial cells. High expression of PIGR in breast cancer has been reported to associate with increased 5-year survival rate. In this study, factors tumour microenvironment affected cell lines, were investigated. Method M1, M2 macrophage conditioned media (CM) and re...
