Muscle type from which satellite cells are derived plays a role in their damage response
The aim of this study was to evaluate the response of satellite cells to muscular atrophies which possess different pathological characteristics and which were induced by distinct damages.

ABSTRACT Ageing is a major risk factor for degenerative diseases, including sarcopenia, which is characterized by a progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, frailty, and is associated with increased mortality. Skeletal muscle regeneration relies on muscle stem cells and efficient communication with cellular microenvironment.

Many of the genes involved in brain patterning during development are highly conserved in vertebrates and similarities in their expression patterns help to recognize homologous cell types or brain regions.

ABSTRACT Background Skeletal muscle atrophy is a frequent comorbidity of metabolic disorders and chronic diseases, and despite its high prevalence, no pharmacological therapy is available, representing a major unmet clinical need. Adiponectin and its receptors are key regulators of skeletal muscle metabolism, mitochondrial function and myogenesis, yet ...

Regional expression of Pax7 in the brain of Xenopus laevis during embryonic and larval development
Pax7 is a member of the highly conserved Pax gene family that is expressed in restricted zones of the central nervous system during development, being involved in early brain regionalization and the maintenance of the regional identity.

ABSTRACT Background Dnajb5, a member of the heat shock protein family, has not been previously reported to play a role in muscle differentiation. We identify Dnajb5 as a negative regulator of myogenesis via mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) signalling, functioning as a central controller of muscle growth and ...

Pax7 is required for establishment of the xanthophore lineage in zebrafish embryos
The pigment pattern of many animal species is a result of the arrangement of different types of pigment-producing chromatophores. The zebrafish has three different types of chromatophores: black melanophores, yellow xanthophores, and shimmering iridophores arranged in a characteristic pattern of golden and blue horizontal stripes.

ABSTRACT Background Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common and severe form of muscular dystrophy, primarily affecting skeletal muscle and leading to premature death. Although the loss of dystrophin has long been recognised as the primary cause of the disease, no definitive cure is currently available. As a consequence, therapeutic efforts

Pioneer and nonpioneer factor cooperation drives lineage specific chromatin opening
Pioneer transcription factor Pax7 specifies melanotrope cells, which then allows for the binding of Tpit transcription factor. Here, authors find that while binding of heterochromatin targeting by Pax7 is independent of Tpit, Pax7-dependent chromatin ...

SIRT Family: Biological Functions and Therapeutic Targets
SIRT1–SIRT7 networks from transgenic mice to human‑relevant therapeutic targets. SIRT1–SIRT7 form an isoform‑, organ‑, and disease‑specific regulatory network. Transgenic Sirt1–7 mouse models define central regulatory SIRTs (SIRT1, SIRT3, SIRT6), context‑dependent modifiers (SIRT2, SIRT4, SIRT5, SIRT7), and their key mechanisms and target organs. These
