Effects of anthocyanidins on myogenic differentiation and antioxidant defense in primary myogenic cells isolated from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
(Elsevier, 2016)
There is increasing interest in using plant-derived extracts to promote growth and health in finfish species in recent years. Elucidating the effects of plant secondary metabolites on skeletal muscle growth signaling will ...
Chronic heart failure-induced skeletal muscle atrophy, necrosis, and changes in myogenic regulatiory factors
(Int Scientific Literature, Inc, 2010-12-01)
Background: Although intrinsic skeletal muscle abnormalities can influence exercise intolerance during heart failure (HF), the factors responsible for muscle changes have not been elucidated. In this study we evaluated the ...
Quantitative expression of myogenic regulatory factors MyoD and myogenin in pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) skeletal muscle during growth
(Pergamon-Elsevier B.V. Ltd, 2010-12-01)
Skeletal muscle growth is regulated by differential expression of myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs). We evaluated hyperplasia, hypertrophy and quantitative expression of MRFs MyoD and myogenin in 45, 90, 180, and 400 days ...
Down-regulation of MyoD gene expression in rat diaphragm muscle with heart failure
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008-06-01)
Diaphragm myopathy has been described in patients with heart failure (HF), with alterations in myosin heavy chains (MHC) expression. The pathways that regulate MHC expression during HF have not been described, and myogenic ...
Morphometry and expression of MyoD and Myogenin in white and red skeletal muscles of juvenile fish Colossoma macropomum (Cuvier 1818)
(2013-07-10)
Colossoma macropomum, also known as tambaqui, is an economically important fish species, and interesting new studies have been published with the aim of improving the growth of this fish. In this work, we describe the ...
Heart Failure-Induced Diaphragm Myopathy
(Karger, 2014-01-01)
Background: Intracellular signaling pathways involved in skeletal myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isofornn alterations during heart failure (HF) are not completely understood. We tested the hypothesis that diaphragm expression ...
Heart failure alters MyoD and MRF4 expressions in rat skeletal muscle
(2006-06-01)
Heart failure (HF) is characterized by a skeletal muscle myopathy with increased expression of fast myosin heavy chains (MHCs). The skeletal muscle-specific molecular regulatory mechanisms controlling MHC expression during ...
Mecanismos celulares e moleculares que controlam o desenvolvimento e o crescimento muscular
(Sociedade Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2007-07-01)
O músculo estriado esquelético é formado pela associação de fibras musculares com a matriz extracelular. Esse tecido possui alta plasticidade e o conhecimento das características morfológicas, da miogênese, e da dinâmica ...
GH overexpression causes muscle hypertrophy independent from local IGF-I in a zebrafish transgenic model
(Springer, 2011-06-01)
The aim of the present study was to analyse the morphology of white skeletal muscle in males and females from the GH-transgenic zebrafish (Danio rerio) lineage F0104, comparing the expression of genes related to the ...
MyoD, myogenin and proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression in growing Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008-11-04)
In the present study, immunohistochemical and morphometric analysis was used to characterize variations in muscle growth performance during muscle fibre recruitment and hypertrophy. As in fisheries, fish were classified ...
