MYCT1 alters the glycogen shunt by regulating selective translation of RACK1-mediated enzymes
iScience, 2022 Summary: MYCT1 has been shown to function as a tumor suppressor in various tumors, but its role in metabolism has never been reported. Here, we showed that global inactivation of Myct1 in mice led to progressive accumulation of glycogen in the liver ...

Urine cortisol in pigs of different MH-genotypes
Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2003 Urine cortisol concentration was evaluated in German Landrace barrows of two MH-genotypes (NN, Nn) housed in metabolic cages. Furthermore, cortisol in urine was evaluated as a substitute measure of plasma cortisol values in pigs.
