GLOBAL DNA METHYLATION PATTERN INVOLVED IN THE MODULATION OF DIFFERENTIATION POTENTIAL OF ADIPOGENIC AND MYOGENIC PRECURSORS IN SKELETAL MUSCLE OF PIGS

Global DNA methylation pattern involved in the modulation of differentiation potential of adipogenic and myogenic precursors in skeletal muscle of pigs

Abstract Background Skeletal muscle is a complex and heterogeneous tissue accounting for approximately 40% of body weight.Excessive ectopic lipid accumulation in the muscle fascicle would undermine the integrity of skeletal muscle in humans but endow muscle with marbling-related characteristics in farm animals.Therefore, the balance of myogenesis a
