The first embryonic landscape of G-quadruplexes related to myogenesis

open access: yesBMC Biology
Background DNA G-quadruplexes (G4s) represent a distinctive class of non-canonical DNA secondary structures. Despite their recognition as potential therapeutic targets in some cancers, the developmental role of G4 structures remains enigmatic.

Disruption of the mouse MRF4 gene identifies multiple waves of myogenesis in the myotome [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
MRF4 (herculin/Myf-6) is one of the four member MyoD family of transcription factors identified by their ability to enforce skeletal muscle differentiation upon a wide variety of nonmuscle cell types.

Herculin, a Fourth Member of the MyoD Family of Myogenic Regulatory Genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We have identified and cloned herculin, a fourth mouse muscle regulatory gene. Comparison of its DNA and deduced amino acid sequences with those of the three known myogenic genes (MyoD, myogenin, and Myf-5) reveals scattered short spans with similarity ...

Chondroitin sulfate restores muscle mass via gut–muscle axis remodeling through sugar–bile acid metabolism reprogramming

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the molecular mechanism by which chondroitin sulfate (DCS) alleviates glucocorticoid‐induced myopathy through the gut–muscle axis. DCS selectively enriches L. johnsonii Z‐RW, enhancing bshA‐encoded BSH activity to promote bile acid deconjugation and reduce the sugar–bile acid ratio, thereby re‐establishing intestinal ...

Global transcriptomic analysis reveals Lnc-ADAMTS9 exerting an essential role in myogenesis through modulating the ERK signaling pathway

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2021
Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging key regulators involved in a variety of biological processes such as cell differentiation and development.

What determines growth potential and juvenile quality of farmed fish species? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Enhanced production of high quality and healthy fry is a key target for a successful and competitive expansion of the aquaculture industry. Although large quantities of fish larvae are produced, survival rates are often low or highly variable and growth ...

FOXO1 and GSK-3β Are Main Targets of Insulin-Mediated Myogenesis in C2C12 Muscle Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Myogenesis and muscle hypertrophy account for muscle growth and adaptation to work overload, respectively. In adults, insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 stimulate muscle growth, although their links with cellular energy homeostasis are not fully ...

Generation of both an shRNA-resistant MEF2A over expression construct and a dominant negative construct in adenovirus for rescue and knockout experiments in muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Myocyte Enhancer Factor-2, or MEF2, transcription factor family is necessary for the differentiation and regeneration of both skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue.

Investigating synthetic oligonucleotide targeting of miR31 in Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Exon-skipping via synthetic antisense oligonucleotides represents one of the most promising potential therapies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), yet this approach is highly sequence-specific and thus each oligonucleotide is of benefit to only a ...
