Muscle senescence is a complex mechanism that is usually associated with a decrease in
mass, strength and velocity of contraction. This state, known as sarcopenia, is a multifactorial …

The mechanisms contributing to sarcopenia include reduced satellite cell (myogenic stem
cell) function that is impacted by the environment (niche) of these cells. Satellite cell function …

Recent studies have begun to provide insight into a long-standing mystery in biology—why
body growth in animals is rapid in early life but then progressively slows, thus imposing a …

Satellite cell (SCs), the main progenitors for post-hatch poultry muscle growth, has maximal
mitotic activity and sensitivity to temperature during the first week after hatch. The objective …

Myogenic satellite cells are stem cells responsible for muscle growth and regeneration.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play significant roles in regulating numerous cellular processes. Two …

Early muscle development involves the proliferation and differentiation of stem cells (satellite
cells, SCs) in the mesoderm to form multinucleated myotubes that mature into muscle fibers …

Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models are growing in popularity due to
human food safety concerns and for estimating drug residue distribution and estimating …

Pectoral muscle development is an important economic trait. According to the different
essence, muscle development can be divided into 2 processes: embryonic muscle fiber …

The identification of satellite cells by electron microscopy juxtaposed to myofibers was
originally reported by Mauro (1961). Since the initial discovery in 1961, numerous studies …

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is an appetite stimulating peptide released from the central nervous
system and impacts the function of many different cell types. A recent transcriptome study …
