RNA-seq analysis reveals the critical role of the novel lncRNA BIANCR in intramuscular adipogenesis through the ERK1/2 signaling pathway

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2023
Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate numerous biological processes, including adipogenesis. Research on adipogenesis will assist in the treatment of human metabolic diseases and improve meat quality in livestock, such as the content of ...

Whole-Transcriptome Analysis of Preadipocyte and Adipocyte and Construction of Regulatory Networks to Investigate Lipid Metabolism in Sheep

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Many local sheep breeds in China have poor meat quality. Increasing intramuscular fat (IMF) content can significantly improve the quality of mutton. However, the molecular mechanisms of intramuscular adipocyte formation and differentiation remain unclear.

Lipid metabolism and secretory function of porcine intramuscular adipocytes compared with subcutaneous and perirenal adipocytes

American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2006
The function of adipocytes interspersed between myofiber fasciculi in skeletal muscle physiology and physiopathology is poorly documented. Because regional differences in adipocyte features have been reported in various species, we hypothesized that lipid metabolism and secretory function of intramuscular (IM) adipocytes differ from that of nonmuscular

TIMP2 promotes intramuscular fat deposition by regulating the extracellular matrix in chicken

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
The interaction between myocytes and intramuscular adipocytes is a hot scientific topic. Using a co-culture system, this study aims to investigate the regulation of intramuscular fat deposition in chicken muscle tissue through the interaction between ...

Effects of Zinc on Lipogenesis of Bovine Intramuscular Adipocytes

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2004
Zinc (Zn) is a micromineral and functions as a cofactor of many enzymes and its deficiency induces retardation of growth and dysfunction of the immune system in animals. This study was conducted to determine lipogenic activity of Zn in bovine intramuscular adipocytes.

Integrated Analysis of MiRNA and Genes Associated with Meat Quality Reveals that Gga-MiR-140-5p Affects Intramuscular Fat Deposition in Chickens

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: Poultry meat quality is affected by many factors, among which intramuscular fat (IMF) is predominant. IMF content affects the tenderness, juiciness, and favor of chicken.
