RUNX1-Mediated Hypoxic Signaling Impairs Myogenesis and Promotes Fibrosis in Myopathies. [PDF]
Myofiber overgrowth was associated with reduced blood flow and a potential hypoxic state in broiler breast muscle, accompanied by increased RUNX1 expression. Elevated RUNX1 impaired myogenic regeneration, promoted fibrosis, and disrupted the signaling niche required for efficient muscle repair, contributing to pathological degeneration in Wooden Breast
