Determination of muscle fiber type is related to the developmental stage of the tissue. Ordinarily the final distribution of fast and slow fibers in a muscle is determined postnatally. Tongue muscle, however, is composed solely of fast-twitch fibers that express only troponin C fast mRNA and fast (t

## Abstract ## Objective To determine the effects of hypoxia and reoxygenation on the metabolism of chondrocytes and their response to interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β). The study included activation of hypoxia‐inducible factor 1 (HIF‐1), NF‐κB, and activator protein 1 (AP‐1) transcription factors, expressio
We have examined the contribution of transcriptional mechanisms to the pleiotropic effects of glucocorticoids on basal and vitamin D stimulated expression of the developmentally regulated bone-specific osteocalcin (OC) gene. OC expression was systematically investigated at the level of protein, mRNA
Even though previous studies have shown that transcripts encoding the murine retinoid X receptor ␥ (RXR␥) are present in skeletal muscle of mouse embryos and that cultured myoblasts are induced to differentiate upon retinoid treatment, a function for RXR␥ and retinoids in mammalian myogenesis has no
DMSO-primed P19 pluripotent cells, which recapitulate the first stages of mammalian cardiogenesis and endodermal formation, were used as an in vitro model to analyze the variations in activity and expression of the different adenylyl cyclase (AC) isoforms during the early events of embryonic cell di
