Application of dietary organic acids in laying hens production: a comprehensive review

Jeseok Lee, Sehyeok Oh, Jung Min Heo

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(6):1185-1206.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2500224

The removal of antibiotic growth promoters from poultry diets has driven research into alternative feed additives to optimize production performance in laying hens. Among these alternatives, dietary organic acids (OAs) have gained significant attention due to their antimicrobial properties, ability to modulate intestinal acidity, and role in enhancing nutrient utilization. This review comprehensively examines the effects of OAs supplementation on egg production and quality, blood parameters, intestinal morphology, fecal and intestinal microbiot...

Ga-Hyeon Jeong, Kyu-Sang Lim

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(6):1207-1214.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2024.e17

Saliva, a non-invasive potential source of circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) and microbiomes, is not well described in pigs. Salivary miRNA expression profiles and the functional significance in pigs were investigated in this study. Saliva samples were extracted from adult female pigs, and small RNA sequencing revealed 26 known and 223 novel miRNAs. The large number of novel miRNAs also demonstrates the differences between salivary miRNAs in pigs and other biological samples. Functional analysis of miRNA target genes indicated enrichments in molec...

Knockdown of Y-box-binding protein 2 induces mitochondrial dysfunction to interrupt zygotic genome activation in porcine embryos

Wen-Jie Jiang, Song-Hee Lee, Hyeon-Ji Song, Xiang-Shun Cui

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(6):1215-1227.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2024.e87

Y-box-binding protein 2 (YBX2) is a germ cell-specific protein that plays important roles in mRNA stability, transcription, and translation. However, the effects of YBX2 on porcine embryos development remain unclear. To investigate the function of YBX2 in early porcine embryonic development, YBX2 knockdown (KD) was performed via siRNA microinjection at the single-cell stage. The expression level of YBX2 gene was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The effect of YBX2 on mitochondrial function and zygotic genom...

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme present in various tissues and plays an important role in biochemical processes, by catalyzing the hydrolysis of organic phosphates and energy metabolism. Despite significant ALP activity in seminal plasma across species, its role in sperm function remains unclear. Several studies have revealed the important role of taurine in male reproductive functions, due to its antioxidant and membrane-stabilizing activity, and ability to enhance sperm quality. Therefore, this study examined the influence of taurine ...
