Article Abstract
Hybridization of livestock can be used to improve varieties, and different hybrid combinations produce unique breeding effects. In this study, male Southdown and Suffolk sheep were selected to hybridize with female Hu sheep to explore the effects of male parentage on muscle growth and the development of offspring. Using data-independent acquisition technology, we identified 119, 187, and 26 differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) between Hu × Hu (HH) versus Southdown × Hu (NH), HH versus Suffolk × Hu (SH), and NH versus SH crosses. Two DAPs, MYOZ2 and MYOM3, were common to the three hybrid groups and were mainly enriched in muscle growth and development-related pathways. At the myoblast proliferation stage, expression decreased cell viability and inhibited proliferation. At the myoblast differentiation stage, MYOZ2 expression promoted myoblast fusion and enhanced the level of cell fusion. These findings provide new insights into the key proteins and metabolic pathways involved in the effect of male parentage on muscle growth and the development of hybrid offspring in sheep.

Hedgehog Components Are Present in Polymorphous Adenocarcinoma of the Salivary Gland Regardless of PRKD1 Mutation and Tissue Invasion.

Purpose: Polymorphous adenocarcinoma of the salivary gland is characterized by cellular uniformity associated with a variety of morphological growth patterns, a fact that makes its diagnosis challenging. Therefore, the identification of genetic alterations and signaling pathways emerges as a tool for elucidation of the pathogenesis of this tumor and accurate differential diagnosis. The aim of this study was to assess mutations in the PRKD1 gene and in protein components of the HH pathway (SHH, IHH, SMO, and GLI-1) in cases of polymorphous adenocarcinoma of the salivary gland.

This review summarizes the biological properties of key myokines (Irisin, Apelin, CLCF1, and Myostatin) and osteokines (Osteocalcin, Sclerostin, FGF23 and the RANKL/OPG system). This work provides an in-depth analysis of the age-related network imbalance mechanism characterized by "downregulation of protective factors (Irisin, CLCF1, and uncarboxylated Osteocalcin) - upregulation of pro-degenerative factors (Myostatin, Sclerostin, and FGF23) - inflammation-driven amplification", and reveals the mechanism by which this network imbalance contributes to the comorbidity of sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and neurodegenerative diseases. Furthermore, the review evaluates the intersecting regulatory networks and molecular pathways through which myo-osteogenic factors modulate neurotrophic factors (BDNF, NGF and GDNF), and proposes intervention strategies based on these intersecting regulatory networks.

Coal worker pneumoconiosis is an occupational pulmonary fibrosis (PF) caused by prolonged exposure to respirable coal dust (CD), with limited therapeutic options. Here, we explored the antifibrotic effects of metformin (Met) in CD-nanoparticle (CD-NP)-induced PF, focusing on its preventive and therapeutic potential. In vivo, Met was administered at different doses (low: 31.

The growing global population and economic development have increased the demand for meat with desired texture and flavor requirements. While intensive breeding and advancements in nutrition and management practices have driven significant improvements in meat production, sustainable solutions are still needed to further enhance both meat yield and quality. The Myostatin (MSTN) gene, which acts as an inhibitor of muscle growth and differentiation, has been extensively studied.

Background: Fine particulate matter has developmental toxicity, and midgestation is an important period for the development of foetal skeletal muscle. The ability of exercise to modulate skeletal muscle damage in mice exposed to PM during gestation remains unclear.
Methods: Pregnant C57BL/6 mice were exposed to 50 μg/m PM for 2 h on five consecutive days starting at embryonic day 12.
