Expression profile of insulin-like growth factor system genes in muscle tissues during the postnatal development growth stage in ducks

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are regulators that modulate the proliferation and differentiation of muscle tissues. We quantified the messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of IGF-I, IGF-II, and type I and II IGF receptors (IGF-IR and IGF-IIR) in muscle tissues including the breast, leg, and myocardium during an early postnatal development growth stage (post-hatching weeks 1-8) in ducks. The results showed a significant age-related change in mRNA in these muscle tissues. In breast muscle, the developme… Show more

“…The focus of this study is on the Igf2 gene and locus in nonmammalian vertebrates, where available information is far less extensive than in mammals (37)(38)(39)(40). Results based on the combinatorial analysis of public genomic and gene expression databases reveal remarkable conservation of overall locus organization and similarity of Igf2 exons and IGF2 proteins in Ͼ500 Myr of evolutionary diversification, and they support the idea that the Igf2 gene and its locus are phylogenetically ancient in vertebrates.…”

“…1E and 10A). Among the other species studied here, mature IGF2 was identical to the chicken protein in turkey, duck, and flycatcher; a single amino acid substitution was seen in zebra finch (Ile 39 to Phe), four changes were found in turtle (Arg 30 to Ser, Ile 39 to Phe, Lys 63 to Arg, and Ser 64 to Thr), and multiple differences were detected in the other species, including human ( Fig. 10A and Table 5).…”

“…The focus of our study were patients of age 60 years or older with chronic disease conditions as they were more likely to be taking multiple medications for the long term. Increased complexity of the medication schedule and longer duration of the medication regimen represented risk factors to adherence [11]. …”

“…The diverse mRNA expression of growth hormone (GH) and IGF-I in breast muscle of 35-day-old Japanese quails identified in different glycerol levels (0, 4, and 8% dietary glycerol instead of corn) (Gasparino et al, 2012). Similarly the expression of mRNA IGF-I, IGF-II, and type I and II IGF receptors (IGF-IR and IGF-IIR) in breast, leg and myocardium during an early postnatal development growth stage of duck at 1-8 weeks of post hatch period (Song et al, (2013) which indicating the expression of these 4 genes differed in proliferation and differentiation of muscle tissues. IGFs in fish promote myogenic cell proliferation, differentiation and synthesis of protein (Fuentes et al, 2013).…”
