Genome-Wide Analysis Reveals Extensive Changes in LncRNAs during Skeletal Muscle Development in Hu Sheep

As an important type of noncoding RNA molecules, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) act as versatile players in various biological processes. However, little is known about lncRNA regulators during sheep muscle growth. To explore functional lncRNAs during sheep muscle growth, we systematically investigated lncRNAs using strand-specific Ribo-Zero RNA sequencing at three key developmental stages in H...

Lipid storage changes in human skeletal muscle during detraining

UNLABELLED Exercise training is known to increase intramuscular triglyceride content in both trained and untrained legs. The purpose of the study was to determine the changes of intramyocellular lipids (IMCL) and extramyocellular lipids (EMCL) of both trained and untrained legs during detraining. We measured both IMCL and EMCL levels in previously trained vs. untrained legs during 4-weeks of de...

Diameter changes in skeletal muscle venules during arterial pressure reduction.

Previous studies in skeletal muscle have shown a substantial (>100%) increase in venous vascular resistance with arterial pressure reduction to 40 mmHg, but a microcirculatory study showed no significant venular diameter changes in the horizontal direction during this procedure. To examine the possibility of venular collapse in the vertical direction, a microscope was placed horizontally to vie...

Vimentin mRNA location changes during muscle development.

The mRNAs for some cytoskeletal proteins are localized, suggesting that mRNA for these proteins may concentrate at sites appropriate for assembly. To test this hypothesis, we observed vimentin mRNA in developing chicken muscle cultures by in situ hybridization with a digoxigenin-labeled DNA probe to vimentin, detected by confocal microscopy using fluorescent anti-digoxigenin antibody. This meth...
