Effects of canine-assisted intervention on stress and depression in humans

Yujin Song, Youngwook Jung, Yeonju Choi, Minjung Yoon

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(4):719-736.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2025.e5

The demand for mental health support systems has been increasing because of the rising prevalence of mental health issues globally. These challenges related to mental health have been addressed through animal-assisted intervention. This approach has gained recognition as an effective method that enhances emotional stability and fosters social bonds. Canine-assisted intervention, a subset of animal-assisted intervention that involves dogs, is recognized for its effectiveness in managing stress and depression in humans. Despite the development of...

https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2023.e80

Conservation of indigenous breeds of ruminants is crucial for offering alternatives to commercial breeds. Moreover, it is part of long-term strategies in the agri-food sector to sustain supplies by ensuring genetic resource diversity to overcome climate change and the food crisis. Malin is the only native sheep breed in Malaysia. Due to traits such as heat tolerance and disease resistance, Malin sheep are considered an invaluable biological heritage. However, breeders and industrial producers are not interested in Malin because of their low com...

Genome-wide association and fine-mapping analyses identify novel candidate genes affecting serum cortisol levels using imputed whole-genome sequencing data in pigs

Tae-Hee Kim, Hyeon-ah Kim, Jae-Bong Lee, Dongwon Seo, Yuju Lee, Yong Jun Kang, Sang-Geum Kim, Sang-Hyun Han, Seung-Hwan Lee, Cedric Gondro, Hee-Bok Park, In-Cheol Cho

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(4):759-772.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2024.e83

In swine breeding programs, it has now become critically important to emphasize selection for resilience to external environmental stress factors that have negatively impacted the productivity of pigs, such as those due to climate change induced temperature increases, or the intensification of housing environments. Secretion of cortisol, a neurophysiological change mediated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, is a central mechanism in the biological stress response. This hormone is closely related to pig robustness and health and can se...

Anti-Müllerian hormone and antral follicle count as predictors for optimal selection of Hanwoo donor cows in superstimulated oocyte collection

Joonho Moon, Jae Jung Ha, Woo-sung Kwon, Daehyun Kim, Junkoo Yi

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(4):773-785.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2024.e51

This study explored the correlation between anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels and reproductive efficiency in native Korean cattle (Hanwoo) as potential oocyte donors in ovum pick-up (OPU) programs. In an effort to enhance the efficiency of oocyte collection, this research explored the correlation between AMH levels and various factors, including the quantity of follicles, retrieved oocytes, and the proportion of transferable embryos. A total of 42 Hanwoo cows were included in this study with AMH levels ranging from 276.5 to 2,212.5 pg/mL. ...

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(4):826-838.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2024.e58

Suckling piglets face the hurdle of pathogenic inversion before the full development of their gastrointestinal tract. The provision of Lactobacillus (L) salivarius guarantees resilient gut health, controls pathogens, increases microbiota, and fortifies intestinal structure. We evaluated the effect of L. salivarius LS144 probiotic given to suckling piglets through the post-weaning stage on the gut microbiota, intestinal morphology, and growth performance. A total of 120 three-day-old crossbred (Landrace × Yorkshire × Duroc) piglets were assig...

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(4):853-867.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2024.e57

Physiological effects of polyphosphates with different chain lengths were unknown in poultry. The effect of 0.05% concentration of short chain polyphosphates (SCPP), medium chain polyphosphates (MCPP) and long chain polyphosphates (LCPP) was observed in broilers. MCPP and LCPP produced bacteriostatic properties against four pathogenic bacteria, Shigella sonnei, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enterica serovar. Pullorum, and Escherichia coli O157:H7. SCPP reduced the level of triglycerides in the blood. Intervention of MCPP and LCPP induced c...

Bovine colostrum-derived exosomes alleviate muscle degeneration by modulating gut microbiota and metabolic homeostasis in atrophy models

Minkyoung Kang, Bohyun Yun, Daye Mun, Sooah Kim, Kwangcheol Casey Jeong, Younghoon Kim, Sangnam Oh

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(4):892-908.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2025.e48

Sarcopenia, a condition characterized by chronic systemic inflammation and a significant decline in the quality of life, is primarily associated with aging and degenerative diseases. Several studies have shown that milk exosomes contain a substantial number of miRNAs that are involved in immunity, inflammation, osteoporosis, and gut microbiota regulation. This study aimed to evaluate the potential functional role of bovine colostrum-derived exosomes (BCE) in reducing muscle atrophy. BCE treatment enhanced the viability of C2C12 myotube and stim...

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase-2 in stallion testes: insights into seasonal changes and potential roles in spermatogenesis

Muhammad Shakeel, Minjung Yoon

J Anim Sci Technol 2025;67(4):909-921.
https://doi.org/10.5187/jast.2024.e52

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and its receptor neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase-2 (NTRK2) have known important roles in the central nervous system for neurite growth, survival, and differentiation. Nevertheless, the significance of BDNF in spermatogenesis remains unclear in stallions. Therefore, the present study was designed 1) to investigate the expression of BDNF and its receptor NTRK2 and 2) the seasonal variation in the expression patterns of BDNF and NTRK2 in stallions’ testes. We used testes from eight postpubertal Thor...
