Introduction: The development of skeletal muscle is regulated by regulatory factors genes and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). Methods: objective this study was to understand the transformation fiber type in longissimus dorsi male Ningxiang pigs at four different growth stages (30, 90, 150, 210 days after birth, n = 3) histological analysis whole transcriptome sequencing. Additionally, investigated expression patterns various involved constructed a network for competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) that...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small non-coding RNAs that play crucial regulatory roles in many biological processes, including the growth and development of skeletal muscle. miRNA-100-5p is often associated with tumor cell proliferation migration. This study aimed to uncover mechanism myogenesis. In our study, we found expression level was significantly higher muscle tissue than other tissues pigs. Functionally, this shows miR-100-5p overexpression promotes inhibits differentiation C2C12...

The processes of muscle growth and development, including myoblast proliferation, migration, differentiation, fusion, are modified by a variety regulatory factors. MYL4 plays an important role in atrial cardiomyopathy, muscle-fiber size, development. structural variation (SV) was found via the de novo sequencing Ningxiang pigs, existence SV verified experiments. genotype distribution pigs Large White detected, it that were mainly BB AB genotype. However, molecular mechanisms behind...

Advances in long-read sequencing technology and genome assembly provide an opportunity to improve the pig reveal full range of structural variations (SVs) between local Chinese European pigs. To date, little is known about genomes some unique indigenous breeds, such as Ningxiang pig. Here, we report a highly contiguous (NX) via integration PacBio single-molecule real-time sequencing, Illumina next-generation BioNano optical mapping Hi-C (chromosome conformation capture) approaches. The...

Epidemiological evidence points to an increased risk of breast cancer in ataxia telangiectasia (AT) heterozygote women. Previous attempts screen early onset or familial patients failed confirm association. The issue AT and late sporadic remained unresolved. We screened 47 women who developed later onset, for mutated (ATM) mutations. No mutations were found.

Muscle cell growth plays an important role in skeletal muscle development. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been proven to be involved the regulation of and In this study, we explored effect circTTN on myoblast its possible molecular mechanism. Using C2C12 cells as a functional model, authenticity was confirmed by RNase R digestion Sanger sequencing. Previous studies showed that overexpression inhibits proliferation differentiation. Mechanistically, recruits PURB protein Titin (TTN) promoter...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators involved in the myogenic process skeletal muscles. miR-708-5p plays an important role various biochemical and physiological processes, but its function myogenesis remain unclear. In this study, we first explored effects of on C2C12 proliferation differentiation by overexpression interference experiments. Then, predicted target genes analyzed their function. We found that was gradually increased during myoblast differentiation. Overexpression...

With the continuous improvement in living standards, people's demand for high-quality meat is increasing. Ningxiang pig has delicious of high nutritional value, and loved by consumers. However, its slow growth low yield seriously restrict efficient utilization. Gene expression internal driving force life activities, so order to fundamentally improve rate, it key explore molecular mechanism skeletal muscle development pigs. In this paper, boars were selected four stages (30 days: weaning...
