Maximising the yield of product from livestock is common practice in the agriculture industry and there is potential to extend this practice to the emerging insect industry, to produce high-quality, sustainable protein. Tenebrio molitor larvae, commo... Read More about The juvenile hormone analogue, pyriproxifen, alters protein and fat composition of Tenebrio molitor larvae.

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...
