Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffect of Pre-Slaughter Autophagic Status on Postmortem Proteolysis in Skeletal Muscle of MiceTomonori Nakanishi, Miho Yamashita, Naoto Nishimoto et al.Post mortem proteolysis is a key event during the aging process, where muscle converts to meat. However, its precise mechanism remains unclear. In this study, the effects of pre-slaughter autophagic status on post mortem proteolysis were investigated using mouse skeletal muscle. Mice were fasted for 14 h and administered with or without the autophagy inhibitor wortmannin, whereas control mice were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 10 Jul 2017 · 7,988 accessesView PDFCite

Approach: After local X-ray radiation of both rat gastrocnemius muscles at a dose 20 Gy or after total γ-irradiation of animals at a semiletal dose 6 Gy, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Aug 2011 · 8,198 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSerum Levels of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I, Thyroid Hormones and Skeletal Muscle Fiber Size in Castrated Lambs with and Without Androgen TreatmentBani Z. Ismail, O. M. AL-Ababneh, M. B. AL-ZghoulTwelve, intact male lambs, 1-2- weeks old, were divided into 3 groups, Group W (4 lambs) were castrated at age less than 1 month, group WT (4 lambs) were castrated at the same age and treated with testosterone and group R (4 lambs) were left intact and served as control. Testosterone Propionate replacement was administered intramuscularly at a dose of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,122 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Splay Leg Syndrome in Piglets: A ReviewVassilis G. PapatsirosProblem statement: The splay leg syndrome is the major congenital cause of lameness in suckling piglets. It is characterized by a temporarily impaired functionality of the hind leg muscles immediately after birth, resulting in an ability to stand and walk. Etiology and pathogenesis is complex and remain still poorly understood. Approach: The aim of the present study is to perform … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 19 Jul 2012 · 10,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGenetic Diversity in Cichla monoculus (Spix and Agassiz, 1931) Populations: Implications for Management and ConservationCarlos Henrique Dos Anjos Dos Santos, Carolina Fernandes Silva De Sousa, Maria de Nazare Paula-Silva et al.Problem statement: The object of this study was to examine the genetic structure and gene flow in Cichla monoculus populations in seven varzea lakes of the Solimoes River using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers, to monitor the region where petroleum is transported in the Amazon basin. Approach: The loss of genetic diversity is one of the main factors leading … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 8,517 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Functional Analysis of the Basic Helix-Loop-Helix Proteins in the Clawed Frogs' Genomes With Common Essential Pathways and Enriched Gene Ontology TermsWuyi LiuThe international Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway databases were used to functionally analyze the clawed frogs' Basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) transcription factors of Xenopus tropicalis and Xenopus laevis in a updated genome-wide survey. There were 41 GO terms and one pathway significantly enriched for Xenopus tropicalis, whereas there were 45 GO terms and 3 pathways significantly enriched for Xenopus laevis.

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomechanically Inspired Machines, Driven by Muscle Like Acting NiTi AlloysAntonio Apicella, Raffaella Aversa, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe Shape of the Memory Alloy (SMA) is a very promising class of metallic materials with interesting non-linear properties such as Pseudo-Elasticity (PE), memory (MEM) and damping capacity due to high mechanical hysteresis and internal friction. Research shows a bioinventory approach to Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) design, a class of intelligent materials capable of reacting to a pulse (thermal for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 23 May 2018 · 8,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomechanically Inspired Shape Memory Effect Machines Driven by Muscle like Acting NiTi AlloysRaffaella Aversa, Francesco Tamburrino, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu et al.The research shows a bioinspired approach to be adopted to design of systems based on Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), a class of Smart Materials that has in common with muscles the capability to react to an impulse (thermal for SMAs) with a contraction. The biomechanically inspired machine that is discussed in the paper refers to the antagonistic muscles pairs, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 24 Nov 2016 · 9,109 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicroscopic Study of the Lungs of Sprague-Dawley Rats from Various Ages of Postnatal and Aging PeriodsRia Margiana, Isabella Kurnia Liem, Jeanne Adiwinata PawitanPhysiological changes in postnatal and aging lung are associated with a variety of microscopic changes in the lung, especially the alveolar lung tissue, both in the interstitial and epithelial component. Interstitial tissue of the lung will increase in thickness that is supposed to be due to changes in fiber composition, particularly collagen. However, the exact changes are still under debate … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2015 · 7,312 accessesView PDFCite
