Morphometric traits of the heart in standard and mutational colour variants of American mink ( Neovison vison )

Int. j. morphol; 37 (2), 2019
The aim of this study was to estimate the values of morphological traits of myocardium in American minks. The study was conducted on 342 male mink hearts and 416 female mink hearts. Mink coat coloration resulting from mutation or crossbreeding of mutational variants with each other and sex were assumed a...

Implantation of muscle satellite cells overexpressing myogenin improves denervated muscle atrophy in rats

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 49 (2), 2016
This study evaluated the effect of muscle satellite cells (MSCs) overexpressing myogenin (MyoG) on denervated muscle atrophy. Rat MSCs were isolated and transfected with the MyoG-EGFP plasmid vector GV143. MyoG-transfected MSCs (MTMs) were transplanted into rat gastrocnemius muscles at 1 week after surgi...
