The occipital lateral plate mesoderm is a novel source for vertebrate neck musculature [PDF]
In vertebrates, body musculature originates from somites, whereas head muscles originate from the cranial mesoderm. Neck muscles are located in the transition between these regions.

Important functions in myogenesis have been proposed for FGF6, a member of the fibroblast growth factor family accumulating almost exclusively in the myogenic lineage. However, the analyses of Fgf6 (-/-) mutant mice gave contradictory results and the role of FGF6 during myogenesis remained largely unclear.

Elements of fractal analysis are widely used in scientific research, including several biological disciplines. In this study, we hypothesized that chicken breed biodiversity manifests not only at the phenotypic level, but also at the genetic-system level

Rhabdomyosarcoma: Advances in Molecular and Cellular Biology. [PDF]
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue malignancy in childhood and adolescence. The two major histological subtypes of RMS are alveolar RMS, driven by the fusion protein PAX3-FKHR or PAX7-FKHR, and embryonic RMS, which is usually ...

Transcriptome Characterization of Repressed Embryonic Myogenesis Due to Maternal Calorie Restriction
Fetal malnutrition decreases skeletal myofiber number and muscle mass in neonatal mammals, which increases the risk of developing obesity and diabetes in adult life. However, the associated molecular mechanisms remain unclear.

Skeletal Myogenic Progenitors Originating from Embryonic Dorsal Aorta Coexpress Endothelial and Myogenic Markers and Contribute to Postnatal Muscle Growth and Regeneration [PDF]
Skeletal muscle in vertebrates is derived from somites, epithelial structures of the paraxial mesoderm, yet many unrelated reports describe the occasional appearance of myogenic cells from tissues of nonsomite origin, suggesting either ...

Epigenetic regulation of myogenesis [PDF]
Adult skeletal muscle provides a unique paradigm for studying stem to differentiated cell transitions. In response to environmental stress, quiescent muscle stem cells (satellite cells) are activated and proliferative, at which stage they can either differentiate and fuse to form new muscle fibers or alternatively self-renew and maintain the muscle ...

Thiazolidinedione (TZD), a specific peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor r (PPARr) agonist, was developed to control blood glucose in diabetes patients. However, several side effects were reported that increased the risk of heart failure.

Myogenesis is a complex developmental progress in which a variety of transcription factors play essential roles in regulating myogenesis. However, the genetics programs that control myogenesis molecular mechanism are poorly understood.

Histone variants in skeletal myogenesis
Histone variants regulate chromatin accessibility and gene transcription. Given their distinct properties and functions, histone varint substitutions allow for profound alteration of nucleosomal architecture and local chromatin landscape.
