Introduction Apolipoprotein E (apoE) acts as a binding molecule for both the low-density lipoprotein receptor and the lipoprotein receptor-related protein and this function is essential for facilitating the hepatocyte uptake of lipoproteins containing apoB. The absence of apoE leads to increased atherogenicity in both humans and mice, although the ...

Pistachios, a delicacy food product produced mostly in Sicily, generate significant amounts of skins during processing. This by-product has been incorporated in growing/finishing rabbit diet formulations. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a 6% pistachio skin inclusion in rabbit grower/finisher diets on the meat characte...

Nematode, cestode, protozoan, microsporidian, and pentastomid parasites affect domesticated and wild rabbits, hares, and jackrabbits of the genera Brachylagus, Lepus, Oryctolagus, Pentalagus, and Sylvilagus. Some endoparasite infections are of limited or no significance, whereas others have potentially profound consequences. Accurate identification...

Stable isotope analysis (SIA) is an evolving method for determining diet, understanding food web and resolving biogeochemical issues in the ecosystem. This study aims to trace out ecological niche preferences/partitioning and competition among the lagomorphs, including two different breeds of European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), New Zealand rab...

Ninety-six (96) 8-wk-old “mixed breed” of New Zealand white, California white and chinchilla rabbits were used to determine the growth performance, carcass and organ percentages of rabbits fed concentrate diets containing graded levels of Brassica oleracea outer leaves and Musa paradisiaca leaves. The rabbits were assigned to two groups of 48. Thos...

MicroRNAs (miRs) are a group of small, 17–25 nucleotide, non-coding RNA that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. To date, little is known about the molecular signatures of regulatory interactions between miRs and apoptosis and oxidative stress in viral diseases. Lagovirus europaeus is a virus that causes severe disease in ra...

Objet de mobilisations sociales initialement marginales et de développement de connaissances, le bien-être des animaux (BEA) fait maintenant partie des questions publiques installées dans les agendas politiques et scientifiques. À l’instar de la santé humaine, il se rapproche d’un principe difficilement contestable publiquement.En particulier, l’in...

To meet society's expectations in terms of well-being, while maintaining the possibility of selecting rabbits on the basis of their feed efficiency, we have developed an electronic feeder for animals raised in collective pen. This tool equipped with two feeding stations was tested on a small group of 16 rabbits from 32d. to 70d. of age. It permits ...

Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD) is a severe disease caused by Lagovirus europaeus/GI.1 and GI.2. Immunological processes such as apoptosis are important factors involved in the pathogenesis of Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD). The process of programmed cell death has been quite well characterized in infection with GI.1 strains, but apoptosis in ...

A major problem of large-scale rabbit farming is digestive diseases. Relatively few data on parasitic diseases of industrial rabbit populations are available. The aim of the study was to evaluate the seasonaldependent incidence of Eimeria spp. and Passalurus ambiguus infections at large-scale rabbit farms. The survey was carried out between 2018 an...
