Extracellular matrix (ECM)-derived hydrogels hold great promise as biomaterial scaffolds for tissue engineering and wound care due to their inherent biocompatibility and bioactivity. This study developed a novel self-assembled hydrogel from caprine pancreatic ECM and evaluated its wound-healing potential. The hydrogel exhibited appropriate gelation kinetics, retained key ECM components (collagen and sGAG), and demonstrated excellent biodegradability, hemocompatibility, and cytocompatibility. Its low porosity and antiswelling properties supported stable wound contact, preventing tissue compression or patch displacement. In vivo evaluation in a Wistar rat full-thickness wound model showed accelerated, scarless healing with enhanced collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and re-epithelialization. These findings underscore the hydrogel's promise as a biocompatible, effective scaffold for wound repair and regeneration.

: Molybdenum (Mo) is an essential trace element for animals, but too much intake can cause adverse effects. Due to the metabolic characteristics of goats and other ruminants, they are more susceptible to the cumulative effects of Mo toxicity. A high Mo intake can cause multi-organ toxicity in ruminants, but the mechanism of damage to the pancreas is still unclear.

The meat quality of sheep and goats differs even within the same age, gender, and farming systems. Intramuscular fat (IMF) content is an important factor affecting the quality of livestock meat because it affects muscle color, tenderness, juiciness, water-holding capacity, and flavor. This study evaluates the differences in IMF deposition characteristics between Longdong cashmere goats and Tan sheep, and also explores the correlations between these variations and the gut microbiota.

The objective of this study was to determine whether single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) or single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) was more effective for studying the goat pancreas. Pancreas tissues from three healthy 10-day-old female were processed into single-cell and single-nucleus suspensions. These suspensions were then used to compare cellular composition and gene expression levels following library construction and sequencing.
