Oxidative stress‐induced changes in wooden breast and mitigation strategies: A review

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 2, March 2025.
Abstract Wooden breast (WB) is a multifactorial muscular abnormality resulting from the interplay between genetic predispositions for rapid growth, physiological stress, and anatomical impairments. This myopathy has been a persistent challenge in the poultry industry since its initial identification a decade ago.

Extracellular matrix: Dystroglycan interactions—Roles for the dystrophin‐associated glycoprotein complex in skeletal tissue dynamics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Experimental Pathology, Volume 106, Issue 2, March 2025.
Abstract Contributions made by the dystrophin‐associated glycoprotein complex (DGC) to cell–cell and cell‐extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions are vital in development, homeostasis and pathobiology. This review explores how DGC functions may extend to skeletal pathophysiology by appraising the known roles of its major ECM ligands, and likely ...

Purification and characterization of a polypeptide from chick brain that promotes the accumulation of acetylcholine receptors in chick myotubes. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of cell biology, 1986
Acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) are packed in the postsynaptic membrane at neuromuscular junctions at a density of approximately 20,000/micron 2, whereas the density a few micrometers away is less than 20/micron 2. To understand how this remarkable distribution comes about during nerve-muscle synapse formation, we have attempted to isolate factors from

Defective Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Accelerates Skeletal Muscle Aging by Impairing Autophagy/Myogenesis

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 1, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Regenerative capacity of skeletal muscles decreases with age. Deficiency in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is associated with skeletal muscle weakness as well as epithelial cell senescence. However, whether and how CFTR plays a role in skeletal muscle regeneration and aging were unclear.

A Facile Strategy for Preparing Flexible and Porous Hydrogel‐Based Scaffolds from Silk Sericin/Wool Keratin by In Situ Bubble‐Forming for Muscle Tissue Engineering Applications

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, Volume 25, Issue 2, February 2025.
A novel hydrogel‐based bioengineered scaffold with a porous and flexible ultrastructure is fabricated via in situ crosslinking of sericin and keratin. In chorioallantoic membrane analysis, the bioengineered scaffold not only shows angiogenic potential but also promotes the biological behavior of C2C12 muscle cells. These results highlight the potential

Possible Involvement of CSPG4 in Promoting Endothelial Cell Migration and Contributing to Angiogenesis during Skeletal Muscle Regeneration and Development in the Rat

open access: yesAnimal Science Journal, Volume 96, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle regeneration is a complex process that requires coordinated interactions between myogenic and vascular cells. Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4), a cell surface proteoglycan, had been shown to be expressed around immature myofibers in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, suggesting its role in muscle regeneration.

Calmodulin and acetylcholine receptor clustering in embryonic chick myotubes.

open access: yesEuropean journal of cell biology, 1986
We have used the calmodulin antagonists, trifluoperazine (TFP) and calmidazolium, to study the potential role of this protein in the movement of acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) to and from the myotube membrane, as well as in the formation of clusters of AChRs within the plasma membrane.

Human Muscle‐Derived Vascular Stem Cells Can Support Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells In Vitro

open access: yesStem Cells International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: The normal hematopoiesis of the body depends on the interaction between hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that support the growth and development of hematopoietic cells. However, the separation of MSCs from bone marrow is somewhat limited, and the researchers have turned their attention to stromal

Endogenous mammalian lectin localized extracellularly in lung elastic fibers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
An affinity-purified antibody preparation raised against a beta-galactoside-binding lectin from bovine lung was used to localize a similar lectin in rat lung by immunofluorescence and by electron microscopy after on-grid staining visualized with ...

A Glance into the Near Future: Cultivated Meat from Mammalian and Insect Cells

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 4, Issue 10, October 2024.
Growing demand for meat and environmental concerns are driving the search for sustainable alternatives for meat production. Cultured meat from animal stem cells, particularly insect stem cells, is emerging as an efficient, economical, and environmentally friendly option.
