LincRNA-MSTRG.673.2 Promotes Chicken Intramuscular Adipocyte Differentiation by Sponging miR-128-3p [PDF]
AnimalsBackground: Intramuscular fat content is positively correlated with meat flavor and juiciness. Increasing the intramuscular fat (IMF) content of chickens while increasing their growth rate has become a hot topic in molecular breeding.

Methionine Supplementation Benefits Lipogenesis in Goat Intramuscular Adipocytes, Likely by Inhibiting the Expression of SLC5A5 [PDF]
AnimalsIntramuscular fat (IMF) is a crucial indicator of meat quality. Recent studies increasingly suggest that methionine (Met) plays a role in fat accumulation. However, the mechanism by which Met affects the proliferation and differentiation of intramuscular

LncRNA IMFNCR Promotes Intramuscular Adipocyte Differentiation by Sponging miR-128-3p and miR-27b-3p [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2019 Poultry meat quality is affected by many factors, among which intramuscular fat (IMF) is predominant. IMF content affects the tenderness, juiciness, and flavor of chicken.

Effects of the FHL2 gene on the development of subcutaneous and intramuscular adipocytes in goats [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground Adipose tissue affects not only the meat quality of domestic animals, but also human health. Adipocyte differentiation is regulated by a series of regulatory genes and cyclins. Four and half-LIM protein (FHL2) is positively correlated with the
