Enhancing Meat Quality Through Dietary Fiber: Insights Into the Gut Microbiota‐Derived Short‐Chain Fatty Acids‐Muscle Axis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of

Single-molecule studies of unconventional motor protein myosin VI [PDF]

, 2011
Myosin VI is one of the myosin superfamily members that are actin-based molecular motors. It has received special attention due to its distinct features as compared to other myosins, such as its opposite directionality and a much larger step size than ...

Pathophysiological Mechanisms of Emaciation Syndrome in Plectropomus leopardus: Insights From Histology and Transcriptomics

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Integrated phenotypic, histological, transcriptomic, and validation analyses reveal that emaciation syndrome in Plectropomus leopardus is associated with intestinal structural damage, hepatic metabolic remodeling, and muscle protein degradation, highlighting coordinated multi‐tissue alterations underlying disease progression.

One must reconstitute the functions of interest from purified proteins

Frontiers in Physiology
I am often asked by students and younger colleagues and now by the editors of this issue to tell the history of the development of the in vitro motility assay and the dual-beam single-molecule laser trap assay for myosin-driven actin filament movement ...

ANK1 and EPB41 Variants and The Risk of Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteonecrosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Steroid‐induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a refractory skeletal disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, conclusive pathogenic genetic evidence remains elusive due to the limited exploration of rare damaging variants. In this study, we aimed to identify rare variants associated with SONFH.

Pathophysiology of human hearing loss associated with variants in myosins

Frontiers in Physiology
Deleterious variants of more than one hundred genes are associated with hearing loss including MYO3A, MYO6, MYO7A and MYO15A and two conventional myosins MYH9 and MYH14. Variants of MYO7A also manifest as Usher syndrome associated with dysfunction of the

The clinical characteristics of families with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy associated with mutations of cardiac myosin binding protein C [PDF]

, 2010
Introduction: Mutations in cardiac myosin binding protein-C (MYBPC3), the most common genetic cause of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), have been reported to cause a comparatively benign and late-onset form of the disease with incomplete penetrance ...

Myosin-II localizes to the cell cortex when cells are confined within microfluidic gradient channels.

, 2016
(A) Fluorescence intensity of GFP-myosin was higher at the cell cortex (Icort) than in the cytosol (Icyto). (B) The ratio of Icort/Icyto increased when the microfluidic confinement channel height was decreased from 3.8 μm to 1.7 μm.

Human Fibroblast–Myeloid Cell Tissue Atlas Across the Lungs, Synovium, Skin, and Heart

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The availability of single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) data in different tissues and disease states provides an opportunity to compare cellular subsets and identify common and unique cellular activation. In this study, we aimed to characterize shared and tissue‐specific myeloid and stromal phenotypes and to uncover key cellular subtypes ...
