Abstract

Maduramicin, an excellent ionophore antibiotic, is extensively used to control coccidiosis in poultry. Numerous maduramicin intoxications have been reported in farm animal and human due to its relatively narrow safety range, with necrosis or degeneration of cardiac and skeletal muscles as hallmark. To date, the mechanisms of maduramicin-induced cardiotoxicity remain unclear in chicken and other animals. Maduramicin (5 µg/mL)-treated primary chicken myocardial cells were used for RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and bioinformatics analysis in this study. A total of 1442 differential expressed genes were identified. 810 genes were up-regulated and the rest 632 genes were down-regulated. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, apoptosis, calcium signal and cytoplasmic vacuolization pathways were significantly affected. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) analysis showed that gene expression patterns were consistent with RNA-Seq analysis. Pro-inflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-8 (IL-8), apoptosis ratios, cleaved caspase-3, intracellular calcium level and Ca(2+)-ATPase activity were elevated after maduramicin (0.05, 0.5 and 5 µg/mL) treatment. Massive vacuole formation was found in the cytoplasm by morphology and transmission electron microscopy observation. Taken together, the results suggested that maduramicin exerted its cardiotoxicity by multiple molecular mechanisms in primary chicken myocardial cells.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 November 2017.
All research outputs
#17,919,786
of 23,007,887 outputs
Outputs from Archives of Toxicology
#2,164
of 2,652 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#233,856
of 326,841 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Archives of Toxicology
#24
of 35 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,007,887 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,652 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 326,841 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 35 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
