Company officials are quick to note the products are meat, not substitutes like the Impossible Burger or offerings from Beyond Meat, which are made from plant proteins and other ingredients. Globally, more than 150 companies are focusing on meat from cells, not only chicken...
FDA approves drug from transgenic chicken The FDA granted a first ever approval to a drug that is produced in the egg white of transgenically engineered chickens. The agency granted the green light to Alexion's enzyme replacement therapy sebelipase alfa for the treatment of a ra... Mullard,As...
The FDA previously gave the green light tolab-grown chicken made by Upside Foodsin November. Upside Foods and GOOD Meat both use cells from chickens to create the cultured chicken products. Once cells are extracted, GOOD Meat picks the cells most likely to produce healthy, sustainable and tasty...
A gene encoding chicken interferon (ChIFN) was cloned from a cDNA library made from primary chick embryo cells that had been "aged" in vitro so as to produce copious amounts of IFN upon induction. The coding region is predicted to produce a signal peptide of 31 amino acids and a mature...
The allogeneic transplantation of primordial germ cells (PGCs) derived from somatic cells overcomes the limitation of avian cloning. Here, we transdifferentiate chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEFs) from black feathered Langshan chickens to PGCs and transpla
Recently, several attempts have been made to create a generation of transgenic chickens via chimeric intermediates produced by primordial germ cells (PGCs) transfer. This study aimed to compare the influences of different chicken PGCs isolated from circulating blood (bPGCs) or gonads (gPGCs), purifi...
Mast Cells in Nonmammalian Vertebrates Gabriella Chieffi Baccari, ... Rakesh Kumar Rastogi, in International Review of Cell and Molecular Biology, 2011 3.6.4 Birds Among birds, mast cell tumors have been described in a white Leghorn cock (Patnaik and Mohanty, 1970) and more frequently in owls...
An attempt was made to produce possible transgenic chicken via sperm cells as vectors. In vitro incubation of ejaculated chicken spermatozoa with exogenous gene (MiwZ DNA) showed a possibility of the incorporation of foreign gene into sperm cells, which was examined by the PCR analysis. The ...
The ontogeny and cloning of B cells in the bursa of Fabricius The chicken is one of the most convenient species with which to study lymphoid ontogeny. In this review Michael Ratcliffe examines recent evidence about the commitment of avian lymphoid cells as they progress from immature precursors to...
The aim of the present study was to isolate chicken follicular dendritic cells (FDC). A combination of methods involving panning, iodixanol density gradient centrifugation, and magnetic cell separation technology made it possible to obtain functional FDC from the cecal tonsils from chickens, which had...
