Figure 2.

The expression profile of satellite cell- and adipogenic- markers in woody breast muscle. Protein levels were measured by Western blot (A, B, E, F), and mRNA abundances were determined by qPCR (C, D, G) using 2^−∆∆Ct method (Schmittgen and Livak, 2008). Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n= 10/group). *denotes significant difference of treated (affected) compared to the control (unaffected) group at P < 0.05. Abbreviations: ACC, acetyl-CoA carboxylase; ACLY, ATP citrate lyase; C, control; FASN, fatty acid synthase; ME, malic enzyme; Myf5, myogenic factor 5; MyoG, myogenin; MRF4, myogenic regulatory factor 4; PAX, paired box; SREBP, sterol regulatory element binding protein; WB, woody breast.
