Spires M, Bodmer J, Beline M, Wicks J, Zumbaugh M, Shi T, et al.
Animals (Basel) . 2023 Aug; 13(16). PMID: 37627389
Variations in postmortem metabolism in muscle impact pork quality development. Curiously, some genetic lines are more refractile to adverse pork quality development than others and may regulate energy metabolism differently....

Zeng C, Shi H, Kirkpatrick L, Ricome A, Park S, Scheffler J, et al.
Front Physiol . 2022 Mar; 12:785151. PMID: 35283757
Postnatal muscle growth is accompanied by increases in fast fiber type compositions and hypertrophy, raising the possibility that a slow to fast transition may be partially requisite for increases in...

Gunawan A, Yen C, Richert B, Schinckel A, Grant A, Gerrard D
J Anim Sci . 2020 Dec; 98(11). PMID: 33259597
Feeding ractopamine (RAC), a β-adrenergic agonist (BAA), to pigs increases type IIB muscle fiber type-specific protein and mRNA expression. However, increases in the abundance of these fast-twitch fiber types occur...

Wang J, Wang Q, Wang C, Reinholt B, Grant A, Gerrard D, et al.
Dev Biol . 2015 Mar; 402(1):72-80. PMID: 25794679
Each skeletal muscle contains a fixed ratio of fast and slow myofibers that are distributed in a stereotyped pattern to achieve a specific motor function. How myofibers are specified during...

Dilger A, Spurlock M, Grant A, Gerrard D
Anim Sci J . 2010 Oct; 81(5):586-93. PMID: 20887312
Our objective was to determine sensitivity of myostatin null (MN) mice to obesity induction by dietary or genetic means. To induce dietary obesity, 3-week-old wild type (WT) and MN mice...

Shi H, Scheffler J, Zeng C, Pleitner J, Hannon K, Grant A, et al.
Am J Physiol Cell Physiol . 2009 Mar; 296(5):C1040-8. PMID: 19295173
The signal transduction cascades that maintain muscle mass remain to be fully defined. Herein, we report that inhibition of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) signaling in vitro decreases myotube size...

Shi H, Scheffler J, Pleitner J, Zeng C, Park S, Hannon K, et al.
FASEB J . 2008 Apr; 22(8):2990-3000. PMID: 18417546
Skeletal muscle is composed of diverse fiber types, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms responsible for this diversification remain unclear. Herein, we report that the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 pathway,...
