Differential microRNA Expression in Fast- and Slow-Twitch Skeletal Muscle of Piaractus mesopotamicus during Growth
Pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) is a Brazilian fish with a high economic value in pisciculture due to its rusticity and fast growth. Postnatal growth of skeletal muscle in fish occurs by hyperplasia and/or hypertrophy, processes that are dependent on the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts. A class of small noncoding RNAs, known as microRNAs (miRNAs), represses the expression of targe...

متن کاملDifferential expression of myogenic regulatory factor MyoD in pacu skeletal muscle (Piaractus mesopotamicus Holmberg 1887: Serrasalminae, Characidae, Teleostei) during juvenile and adult growth phases.
Skeletal muscle is the edible part of the fish. It grows by hypertrophy and hyperplasia, events regulated by differential expression of myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs). The study of muscle growth mechanisms in fish is very important in fish farming development. Pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) is one of the most important food species farmed in Brazil and has been extensively used in Brazilian...
متن کاملEffect of eight weeks of resistance training on the expression of klotho protein and insulin-like growth factor 1 genes in slow twitch and fast twitch skeletal muscles of aged Wistar rats
Background and Aims: Klotho protein is a substance effective in increasing life expectancy. Moreover, it prevents muscle atrophy, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, the present aimed to assess changes in the expression of klotho protein and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) genes in the muscles of aged Wistar rats after eight weeks of resistance training. Materials and Met...
متن کاملIntracellular calcium movements during excitation–contraction coupling in mammalian slow-twitch and fast-twitch muscle fibers
In skeletal muscle fibers, action potentials elicit contractions by releasing calcium ions (Ca(2+)) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Experiments on individual mouse muscle fibers micro-injected with a rapidly responding fluorescent Ca(2+) indicator dye reveal that the amount of Ca(2+) released is three- to fourfold larger in fast-twitch fibers than in slow-twitch fibers, and the proportion of t...
