We investigated if feeding earthworms (EW) or vermicompost (VC) to broilers improves performance and aids in coping with dietary challenges from a soluble non-starch polysaccharide (NSP)-enriched diet (negative control diet; CON-)....

Active vitamin D increases myogenic differentiation in C2C12 cells via a vitamin D response element on the myogenin promoter (2024)
Journal Article
Alliband, K. H., Parr, T., Jethwa, P. H., & Brameld, J. M. (2024). Active vitamin D increases myogenic differentiation in C2C12 cells via a vitamin D response element on the myogenin promoter. Frontiers in Physiology, 14, Article 1322677. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2023.1322677

Background: Skeletal muscle development during embryogenesis depends on proliferation of myoblasts followed by differentiation into myotubes/multinucleated myofibers. Vitamin D (VD) has been shown to affect these processes, but there is conflicting e...
