Nutritional Impact of Dietary Plasma Proteins in Animals Undergoing Experimental Challenge and Implications for Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disorders: A Meta-analysis
[Review of ]. ADVANCES IN NUTRITION, 6(5), 541–551.
author keywords: enteropathy; inflammatory bowel disease; IBS; agrimedical; plasma protein; immunoglobulin; barrier function; linear growth
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animals; Blood Proteins / administration & dosage; Databases, Factual; Dietary Proteins / administration & dosage; Disease Models, Animal; Humans; Inflammatory Bowel Diseases / drug therapy; Randomized Controlled Trials as Topic
TL;DR:
This meta-analysis evaluated the ability of PPIs to promote weight gain and food intake in weanling animals after oral challenge with various enteric pathogens or bacterial toxins and found the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL) 1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor α were significantly lower in animals fed dietary PPIs.

Zhu, Y.-W., Lu, L., Li, W.-X., Zhang, L.-Y., Ji, C., Lin, Xi, … Luo, X.-G. (2015, December 28). BRITISH JOURNAL OF NUTRITION, Vol. 114, pp. 1965–1974.

Causal relationships between milk quality and coagulation properties in Italian Holstein-Friesian dairy cattle
GENETICS SELECTION EVOLUTION, 47(1).
Contributors: F. Tiezzi n, B. Valente*, M. Cassandro * & C. Maltecca n
MeSH headings : Animals; Caseins / analysis; Cattle; Chymosin; Dairying; Genetic Variation; Italy; Milk / chemistry; Milk / standards
TL;DR:
This study suggests that selection for RCT and a30 should not be performed on correlated traits such as SCS or CAS but on direct measures because the ability of milk to coagulate is improved through the causal effect that the former play on the latter, rather than from a common source of genetic variation.
