Ractopamine induces differential gene expression in porcine skeletal muscles.
Ractopamine (RAC) improves growth by increasing lean accretion and decreasing fat deposition through repartitioning nutrients from adipose tissue to skeletal muscle. Although the process is not completely understood, RAC alters the proportion of muscle fiber type composition toward a faster-contracting phenotype. Because one of the primary determinants of contractile speed is the relative abund...
متن کاملDevelopmental Programming of Fetal Skeletal Muscle and Adipose Tissue Development
All important developmental milestones are accomplished during the fetal stage, and nutrient fluctuation during this stage produces lasting effects on offspring health, so called fetal programming or developmental programming. The fetal stage is critical for skeletal muscle development, as well as adipose and connective tissue development. Maternal under-nutrition at this stage affects the prol...
متن کاملFetal programming of skeletal muscle development in ruminant animals.
Enhancing skeletal muscle growth is crucial for animal agriculture because skeletal muscle provides meat for human consumption. An increasing body of evidence shows that the level of maternal nutrition alters fetal skeletal muscle development, with long-term effects on offspring growth and performance. Fetal skeletal muscle development mainly involves myogenesis (i.e., muscle cell development),...
متن کاملMicroRNA identity and abundance in porcine skeletal muscles determined by deep sequencing.
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are short single-stranded RNA molecules that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by binding to complementary sequences in the 3' untranslated region (3' UTR) of target mRNAs. MiRNAs participate in the regulation of myogenesis, and identification of the complete set of miRNAs expressed in muscles is likely to significantly increase our understanding of muscle growth...
