Effect of AAV-mediated overexpression of ATF5 and downstream targets of an integrated stress response in murine skeletal muscle.

We previously reported that growth promoter-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy co-ordinately upregulated expression of genes associated with an integrated stress response (ISR), as well as potential ISR regulators. We therefore used Adeno-Associated... Read More about Effect of AAV-mediated overexpression of ATF5 and downstream targets of an integrated stress response in murine skeletal muscle.

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) is a gluconeogenic enzyme with a cytosolic (Pck1/PEPCK-C) and mitochondrial (Pck2/PEPCK-M) isoform. Here we investigate the effect of 3-mercaptopicolinic acid (3-MPA), a PEPCK inhibitor, on C2C12 muscle cells...

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 20, Article 100694. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbrep.2019.100694

Skeletal muscle is a highly metabolic and dynamic tissue that is formed through the complex and well-organised process of myogenesis. Although there is a good understanding about the role of the Muscle Regulatory Factors during myogenesis, little is...

Photoperiodic changes in adiposity increase sensitivity of female Siberian hamsters to systemic VGF derived peptide TLQP-21 (2019)
Journal Article
Lisci, C., Lewis, J. E., Daniel, Z. C., Stevenson, T. J., Monnier, C., Marshall, H. J., …Jethwa, P. H. (2019). Photoperiodic changes in adiposity increase sensitivity of female Siberian hamsters to systemic VGF derived peptide TLQP-21. PLoS ONE, 14(8), Article e0221517. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0221517

TLQP-21, a peptide encoded by the highly conserved vgf gene, is expressed in neuroendocrine cells and has been the most prominent VGF-derived peptide studied in relation to control of energy balance. The recent discovery that TLQP-21 is the natural a... Read More about Photoperiodic changes in adiposity increase sensitivity of female Siberian hamsters to systemic VGF derived peptide TLQP-21.

The commercial pig as a model of spontaneously-occurring osteoarthritis (2019)
Journal Article
Macfadyen, M. A., Daniel, Z., Kelly, S., Parr, T., Brameld, J. M., Murton, A. J., & Jones, S. W. (2019). The commercial pig as a model of spontaneously-occurring osteoarthritis. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 20, Article 70. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-019-2452-0

Background: Preclinical osteoarthritis models where damage occurs spontaneously may better reflect the initiation and development of human osteoarthritis. The aim was to assess the commercial pig as a model of spontaneous osteoarthritis development b... Read More about The commercial pig as a model of spontaneously-occurring osteoarthritis.

The beta-adrenergic agonist, Ractopamine increases skeletal muscle expression of Asparagine Synthetase as part of an integrated stress response gene program (2018)
Journal Article
Brown, D., Ryan, K., Daniel, Z., Mareko, M., Talbot, R., Moreton, J., …Brameld, J. M. (2018). The beta-adrenergic agonist, Ractopamine increases skeletal muscle expression of Asparagine Synthetase as part of an integrated stress response gene program. Scientific Reports, 8, Article 15915. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-34315-9

Synthetic beta-adrenergic agonists (BA) have broad biomedical and agricultural application for increasing lean body mass, yet a poor understanding of the biology underpinning these agents is limiting further drug discovery potential. Growing female p... Read More about The beta-adrenergic agonist, Ractopamine increases skeletal muscle expression of Asparagine Synthetase as part of an integrated stress response gene program.

Effect of sodium 4-phenylbutyrate on clenbuterol-mediated muscle growth (2018)
Journal Article

Previously, we highlighted induction of an integrated stress response (ISR) gene program in skeletal muscle of pigs treated with a beta-adrenergic agonist. Hence we tested the hypothesis that the ER-stress inhibitor, sodium 4-phenylbutyrate (PBA), wo... Read More about Effect of sodium 4-phenylbutyrate on clenbuterol-mediated muscle growth.

The effect of maternal undernutrition on the rat placental transcriptome: protein restriction up-regulates cholesterol transport (2016)
Journal Article

Fetal exposure to a maternal low protein diet during rat pregnancy is associated with hypertension, renal dysfunction and metabolic disturbance in adult life. These effects are present when dietary manipulations target only the first half of pregnanc...

Exposure of neonatal rats to maternal cafeteria feeding during suckling alters hepatic gene expression and DNA methylation in the insulin signalling pathway (2013)
Journal Article

Exposure of neonatal rats to maternal cafeteria feeding during suckling alters hepatic gene expression and DNA methylation in the insulin signalling pathway. Genes and Nutrition, 9(1), Article 365. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12263-013-0365-3

Nutrition in early life is a determinant of lifelong physiological and metabolic function. Diseases that are associated with ageing may, therefore, have their antecedents in maternal nutrition during pregnancy and lactation. Rat mothers were fed eith...
