The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2018 Striated muscle is the most abundant tissue in the body of vertebrates and it forms, together with the skeleton, the locomotory system required both for movement and the creation of the specific body shape of a species. Research on the embryonic development of muscles has a long tradition both in classical embryology and in molecular developmental ...

MicroRNA-668-3p inhibits myoblast proliferation and differentiation by targeting Appl1
BMC Genomics, 2023 Background Skeletal muscle is the largest tissue in the body, and it affects motion, metabolism and homeostasis. Skeletal muscle development comprises myoblast proliferation, fusion and differentiation to form myotubes, which subsequently form mature ...

Gaining more from doing less? The effects of a one-week deload period during supervised resistance training on muscular adaptations [PDF]
PeerJBackground Based on emerging evidence that brief periods of cessation from resistance training (RT) may re-sensitize muscle to anabolic stimuli, we aimed to investigate the effects of a 1-week deload interval at the midpoint of a 9-week RT program on ...

Muscle development: Forming the head and trunk muscles [PDF]
Acta Histochemica, 2008 The morphological events forming the body's musculature are sensitive to genetic and environmental perturbations with high incidence of congenital myopathies, muscular dystrophies and degenerations. Pattern formation generates branching series of states in the genetic regulatory network.

Synchronizing N Release from Organic Residues: Opportunities for Integrated Management of N
The Scientific World Journal, 2001 In intensive cropping systems, mineral nitrogen (N) fertilizers represent the largest component of the N cycle because the indigenous N supply is not adequate. The requirement for mineral fertilizer may be reduced with the use of organic nutrient sources.

Guinea Pig Ciliary Muscle Development [PDF]
Optometry and Vision Science, 2014 The purpose of this study was to develop a method for quantifying guinea pig ciliary muscle volume (CMV) and to determine its relationship to age and ocular biometric measurements.Six albino guinea pigs' eyes were collected at each of five ages (n = 30 eyes).

Acute and chronic cold exposure differentially affects the browning of porcine white adipose tissue
Animal, 2018 Piglets are characteristically cold intolerant and thus susceptible to high mortality. However, browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) can induce non-shivering thermogenesis as a potential strategy to facilitate the animal’s response to cold.

Muscle-specific microRNAs in skeletal muscle development
Developmental Biology, 2016 Proper muscle function constitutes a precondition for good heath and an active lifestyle during an individual's lifespan and any deviations from normal skeletal muscle development and its functions may lead to numerous health conditions including e.g. myopathies and increased mortality.

Cholesterol-derived glucocorticoids control early fate specification in embryonic stem cells
Stem Cell Research, 2015 Aside from its role in cell membrane integrity, cholesterol is a key component in steroid hormone production. The vital functions of steroid hormones such as estrogen, testosterone, glucocorticoids (Gcrts) and mineralocorticoids (Mnrts) in perinatal and ...
