Specification and epigenomic resetting of the pig germline exhibit conservation with the human lineage (2021)
Journal Article
Zhu, Q., Sang, F., Withey, S., Tang, W., Dietmann, S., Klisch, D., …Alberio, R. (2021). Specification and epigenomic resetting of the pig germline exhibit conservation with the human lineage. Cell Reports, 34(6), Article 108735. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2021.108735

Investigations of the human germline and programming are challenging because of limited access to embryonic material. However, the pig as a model may provide insights into transcriptional network and epigenetic reprogramming applicable to both specie...

Journal Article
Brearley, M. C., Loczenski-Brown, D. M., Loughna, P. T., Parr, T., & Brameld, J. M. (2021). Response of the porcine MYH4-promoter and MYH4-expressing myotubes to known anabolic and catabolic agents in vitro. Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 25, Article 100924. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbrep.2021.100924

© 2021 The Authors Myosin heavy chain-IIB (MyHC-IIB; encoded by MYH4 or Myh4) expression is often associated with muscle hypertrophic growth. Unlike other large mammals, domestic pig breeds express MyHC-IIB at both the mRNA and protein level. Aim: To...
