Strategies for Diagnosis of Diseases in Pigs Using Molecular Markers Review
In certain breeds of pigs were identified the porcine stress syndrome (PSS) that determine the appearance of some carcasses inadequate for processing. Because PSS can be triggered by halothane, the gene responsible for the syndrome is often referred to ...

Abstract Mucosal melanomas (MMs) are rare, aggressive cancers with poor outcomes and limited response to standard therapies. A significant knowledge gap exists regarding their genomic landscape and corresponding druggable targets. This study explores this issue through a multi‐omic analysis, including whole exome‐, RNA‐, and targeted sequencing, of ...

ABSTRACT Nutrigenomics investigates how nutrients modulate gene expression. Among them, fatty acids (FA) play important roles in regulating gene transcription, while long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may be associated with gene regulation and metabolic diseases.

Identification of drug modifiers for RYR1-related myopathy using a multi-species discovery pipeline
Ryanodine receptor type I-related myopathies (RYR1-RMs) are a common group of childhood muscle diseases associated with severe disabilities and early mortality for which there are no available treatments.

Function of a mutant ryanodine receptor (T4709M) linked to congenital myopathy
Physiological muscle contraction requires an intact ligand gating mechanism of the ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1), the Ca2+-release channel of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Some mutations impair the gating and thus cause muscle disease.

ABSTRACT Background Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (ADCNM), most commonly caused by mutations in the dynamin 2 (DNM2) gene, is a rare congenital myopathy characterized by progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Myostatin, a key negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass, has shown therapeutic potential in several models of neuromuscular ...

Mechanisms underlying the phenotypic diversity in RYR1-associated Malignant Hyperthermia [PDF]
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a potential fatal hereditary skeletal muscle disorder that occurs upon exposure to certain anaesthetic agents. Susceptibility is predominantly conferred by variants in the RYR1 gene encoding the type 1 ryanodine receptor ...

Cardioprotective hormone relaxin‐2 showed relevant effects on rat skeletal muscle by altering proteins linked to muscle function, regeneration, differentiation, mitochondrial function, glucose metabolism, and structural integrity and organization. Specifically, relaxin‐2 reduced the expression of 95 proteins, increased 32, and elicited unique proteins ...

Functional Characterization of Endogenously Expressed Human RYR1 Variants
More than 700 variants in the RYR1 gene have been identified in patients with different neuromuscular disorders including malignant hyperthermia susceptibility, core myopathies and centronuclear myopathy.

We introduce an additively manufactured bioreactor with a perfusion flow system and integrated temperature and pH sensors for skeletal muscle tissue biofabrication. The bioreactor's performance was evaluated by assessing the viability, spreading of the myoblast cells in a printed scaffold, and contraction of the isolated murine musculi interossei ...
