Significant associations for the eye depigmented patterns were also identified for SNPs on two SSC4 regions (including two candidate genes NOTCH2 and PREX2) and on SSC6, SSC8 and SSC14 (including COL17A1 as candidate gene). This study provided useful information to understand eye pigmentation mechanisms, further valuing the pig as animal model to study complex phenotypes in humans. © 2020 Stichting International Foundation for Animal Genetics.Inhalation of odors can affect physiological parameter and change gene expression-related specific function. 2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone (DMHF) is one of the major odor compounds generated by the Maillard reaction. We previously reported that the inhalation of DMHF decreased systolic blood pressure via the autonomic nervous system in rats. The autonomic nervous system is also closely related to appetite regulation. The present study investigated the effects of DMHF on dietary intake and gene expression. The inhalation of DMHF increased the dietary intake of rats during the feeding period. However, body weight did not change after 6 weeks feeding. A DNA microarray analysis showed that DMHF altered gene expression associated with feeding behavior and neurotransmission in the rat brain. DMHF inhalation promotes appetite and changes gene expression in rats. Furthermore, phenotypic changes may regulate neurotransmission and appetite at the mRNA level in addition to controlling the autonomic nervous system. PRACTICAL APPLICATION DMHF is an important flavor component in the food industry. In this study, we first observed that the inhalation of DMHF promotes appetite. This finding is directly connected with the industrial application. © 2020 Institute of Food Technologists®.This case study demonstrates the feasibility of pacing the left bundle branch and atrial septum under transthoracic echocardiography (T
