“…Thereafter, fm2 and fml are observed; their proportions increase while that of fm3 decreases steadily (Hoh, 1976;Gardahaut et al, 1988). It is already known that in fast muscle, the fm3 myosin isoform is the first to appear during embryonic muscle development.…”

Quantitative (muscle fibre number and cross-sectional areas) and qualitative (myosin isoforms and metabolic enzyme activities) characteristics of two muscles, M. pectoralis major and M. anterior latissimus dorsi, were compared among male chickens of two lines during growth from hatching to adulthood. The lines were derived from a divergent selection based on growth rate. The two muscles were chosen on the basis of their histochemical profile. Pectoralis major muscle contains only fast contracting muscle fibres whereas anterior latissimus dorsi muscle is almost entirely made up with slow contracting fibres. At both ages, the two lines showed similar fibre type distributions. At hatching, fibre cross-sectional areas were equivalent in the two lines, but after the first week, animals from the fast growing line exhibited wider fibre areas, whatever the muscle, than animals from the slow growing line. The total number of fibres in a muscle was found greater in the fast growing line, irrespective of whether it was exactly determined (anterior latissimus dorsi muscle, + 20%) or only estimated (pectoralis major muscle). This number remains constant in the two lines throughout the growth. Myosin isoform profiles and metabolic enzyme activities were similar in the two lines, at both ages, and were in good agreement with the histochemical muscle fibre profiles.

“…On each day of sampling, the right and left (ALD) muscle and the right and left (PLD) muscle were dissected from each embryo, representing the slow and fast muscle types, respectively (Gardahaut et al, 1988). The muscles from the right side were wrapped in ethanolsprayed foil and snap frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen for mRNA expression analysis.…”

Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) -1 and -2 and binding protein (IGFBP-2, -4, and -5) expression can be affected by several environmental factors, but the impact of movement on the IGF axis during late embryogenesis has yet to be fully characterized. Movement was promoted in chick embryos during midembryogenesis using 4-aminopyridine (4-AP). The results indicate an increase in IGF-1 (P < 0.01) and a decrease in IGFBP-2 (P < 0.05) mRNA expression in slow muscle of the stimulated group compared with the control group. In fast muscle, there was a decrease in IGF-2 (P < 0.01) on embryonic day (ED) 16 and an increase in IGFBP-2 (P < 0.01) and IGFBP-4 (P < 0.05) and in IGFBP-5 (P < 0.05) expression on ED18 in the stimulated group compared with the control group. These results indicate that neuromuscular stimulation with 4-AP influences IGF axis gene expression in a muscle fiber type-dependent manner. Consequences of the changes in the IGF system for each muscle are discussed.

“…1976). Based on ATPase and SDH histochemistry, and myosin protein isoform analysis, avian ALD and PLD muscles have been utilized as models of true tonic/fatigue resistant and pure phasic/fatigue‐prone muscles, respectively (Shear & Goldspik 1971; Gardahaut et al. 1988).…”

Skeletal muscle is composed of metabolically heterogeneous myofibres that exhibit high plasticity at both the morphological and transcriptional levels. The objective of this study was to employ microarray analysis to elucidate the differential gene expression between the tonic-ÔredÕ anterior latissimus dorsi (ALD) muscle, the phasic-ÔwhiteÕ posterior latissimus dorsi (PLD) and ÔmixedÕ-phenotype biceps femoris (BF) in 1-week-and 19-week-old male turkeys. A total of 170 differentially expressed genes were identified in the muscle samples analysed (P < 0.05). Gene GO analysis software was utilized to identify top gene networks and metabolic pathways involving differentially expressed genes. Quantitative real-time PCR for selected genes (BAT2D, CLU, EGFR and LEPROT) was utilized to validate the microarray data. The largest differences were observed between ALD and PLD muscles, in which 32 genes were over-expressed and 82 genes were under-expressed in ALD1-PLD1 comparison, and 70 genes were over-expressed and 70 under-expressed in ALD19-PLD19 comparison. The largest number of genes over-expressed in ALD muscles, as compared to other muscles, code for extracellular matrix proteins such as dystroglycan and collagen. The gene analysis revealed that phenotypically ÔredÕ BF muscle has high expression of glycolytic genes usually associated with the ÔwhiteÕ muscle phenotype. Muscle-specific differences were observed in expression levels of genes coding for proteins involved in mRNA processing and translation regulation, proteosomal degradation, apoptosis and insulin resistance. The current findings may have large implications in muscle-type-related disorders and improvement of muscle quality in agricultural species.
