Effects of toll like receptor 4 overexpression on blood parameters, body composition, and gastrointestinal microbial diversity in sheep

Effects of toll like receptor 4 overexpression on blood parameters, body composition, and gastrointestinal microbial diversity in sheep

Genetic modifications can improve the health status and disease resistance of farm animals. In the previous study, genetically modified (GM) sheep overexpressing toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) were produced. The GM sheep had stronger ability to eliminate invasive microbes compared to the wild-type (WT)...
