Scientific Reports, 11(1), 1-13. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-99432-4

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.

In vitro Effects of Biologically Active Vitamin D on Myogenesis: A Systematic Review (2021)
Journal Article
Alliband, K. H., Kozhevnikova, S. V., Parr, T., Jethwa, P. H., & Brameld, J. M. (2021). In vitro Effects of Biologically Active Vitamin D on Myogenesis: A Systematic Review. Frontiers in Physiology, 12, Article 736708. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2021.736708

Vitamin D (VD) deficiency is associated with muscle weakness. A reduction in the incidence of falls in the elderly following VD supplementation and identification of the VD receptor within muscle cells suggests a direct effect of VD on muscle, but li...

This chapter explores the nutritional composition of insects and the potential benefits and drawbacks for their inclusion into pet, poultry, pig, ruminant and aquatic animal feeds. Six species are most commonly described for use in animal feed, namel... Read More about Suitability of insects for animal feeding..

98 The effect of mezquite pod flour in a wheat-based diet on broiler chicken growth performance (2021)
Journal Article
Bone, G., Parr, T., Brameld, J., Elmes, M., Gonzalez-Carranza, Z., & Koech, O. (2021). 98 The effect of mezquite pod flour in a wheat-based diet on broiler chicken growth performance. Animal - Science proceedings, 12(1), 77. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anscip.2021.03.099

Application Inclusion of Mezquite pod flour in broiler chicken diets significantly reduced weight gain, this could inform a recommendation against the use of non-processed Mezquite in broiler chicken diets. Introduction Mezquite is an under-utilised... Read More about 98 The effect of mezquite pod flour in a wheat-based diet on broiler chicken growth performance.

Response of the porcine MYH4-promoter and MYH4-expressing myotubes to known anabolic and catabolic agents in vitro (2021)
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...
