Author Correction: Dual orexin receptor antagonist induces changes in core body temperature in rats after exercise.

abstract：:Genome editing tools have revolutionized the generation of genetically modified animals including livestock. In particular, the domestic pig is a proven model of human physiology and an agriculturally important species. In this study, we utilized the CRISPR/Cas9 system to edit the NANOS2 gene in pig embryos to generat...
