Article Synopsis
  • Typhimurium is a pathogen that causes gastrointestinal diseases in humans and animals, and the role of the heat shock protein HtpG in its infection was previously unclear.
  • The study found that mutations in HtpG led to a decrease in several key pathways for Typhimurium, resulting in reduced motility, biofilm formation, and the ability to induce inflammation.
  • Additionally, HtpG recombinant protein was shown to enhance Typhimurium proliferation in host cells, highlighting its significant role in the infection process.

Porcine skeletal muscle fibres are classified based on their different physiological and biochemical properties. Muscle fibre phenotype is regulated by several independent signalling pathways, including the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT), myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signalling pathways. MicroRNAs are non-coding small RNAs that regulate many biological processes.
