Skeletal muscle is essential for locomotion, metabolism, and protein homeostasis in the body. Mitochondria have been considered as a key target to regulate metabolic switch during myo-genesis. The insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) signaling through AKT/mammalian of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway has well-documented role promoting regeneration, but whether it involved mitochondrial behavior function remains un-examined. In this study, we investigated effect IGF-1 on remodeling myogenic...

Abstract Sepsis‐induced muscle atrophy often increases morbidity and mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) patients, yet neither therapeutic target nor optimal animal model is available for this disease. Here, by modifying the surgical strategy of cecal ligation puncture (CLP), a novel sepsis pig created that first time recapitulates whole course humans. With increased levels transcription factor zinc finger BED‐type containing 6 (ZBED6) skeletal are shown. Protection against sepsis‐induced...
ZBED6, a key transcription factor, plays an important role in skeletal muscle and organ growth. ZBED6 knockout (ZBED6-/-) leads to the upregulation of IGF2 pig mice muscle, thereby increasing mass. However, effects mechanism Zbed6 single-allele (Zbed6+/-) on remain unknown. Here, we reported that Zbed6+/- promotes growth by new potential target gene rather than Igf2 muscle. showed markedly higher mass (25%) weight ratio (18%) wild-type (WT) mice, coinciding with larger fiber area (28%)....

Catalase- oxidase-positive. comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequence WN007T showed highest similarities Paracoccus chinensis (97.5 %) niistensis (97.4 %). The major respiratory quinone strain Q10 fatty acid...
Atrazine (ATR) is extensively used worldwide as an herbicide, with a global ecological influence. The widespread distribution of herbicides may be one the possible reasons for decline in amphibian population. acute toxicity and potential toxicological mechanisms ATR on immune system frogs are not well-understood.

Colonies WRN-8T were 0.2-0.3 µm wide, 2.1-2.8 long, catalase-positive and oxidase-positive. on agar solid media circular, wet, smooth, light yellow approximately 1.3 mm in diameter. Growth occurred optimally at 33-37 °C, pH 7.0-7.5 presence 2-4 % NaCl (w/v). Phylogenetic analysis 16S rRNA gene indicated...
ZBED6 (zinc finger BED domain containing protein 6) is a transcription factor unique to placental mammals and its interaction with the IGF2 (insulin-like growth 2) locus plays prominent role in regulation of postnatal skeletal muscle growth. Here, we generated lean Bama miniature pigs by generating ZBED6-knockout (ZBED6-/-) investigated mechanism underlying internal organs mammals. ZBED6-/- show markedly higher mass, mass rate, larger fiber area heavier (heart liver) than wild-type (WT)...
The mutation of insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2 mutation) that a single-nucleotide substitution (G→A) in the third intron IGF2 abrogates interaction with zinc finger BED-type containing 6 (ZBED6) and leads to increased muscle mass pigs. knock-in KI) ZBED6 knockout (ZBED6 KO) lead changes expression increase mice Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) may participate numerous biological processes, including skeletal development. However, role ZBED6-lncRNA axis development is poorly characterized.In...

Abstract Ten-eleven translocation (TET) 2 is an enzyme that catalyzes DNA demethylation to regulate gene expression by oxidizing 5-methylcytosine 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, functioning as essential epigenetic regulator in various biological processes. However, the regulation and function of TET2 adipocytes during obesity are poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrate leptin, a key adipokine mammalian energy homeostasis regulation, suppresses adipocyte levels via JAK2-STAT3 signaling....
