The adult skeletal muscle stem cells, satellite cells, are responsible for skeletal muscle growth and regeneration. Satellite cells represent a heterogeneous cell population that differentially express cell surface markers. The membrane-associated heparan sulfate proteoglycans, syndecan-4, and glypican-1, are differentially expressed by satellite cells during the proliferation and differentiation stages of satellite cells. However, how the population of syndecan-4- or glypican-1-positive satellite cells changes during proliferation and differentiation, and how sex and muscle growth potential affect the expression of these genes is unknown. Differences in the amount of satellite cells positive for syndecan-4 or glypican-1 would affect the process of proliferation and differentiation which would impact both muscle mass accretion and the regeneration of muscle. In the current study, the percentage of satellite cells positive for syndecan-4 or glypican-1 from male and female turkeys from a Randombred Control Line 2 and a line (F) selected for increased 16-week body weight were measured during proliferation and differentiation. Growth selection altered the population of syndecan-4- and glypican-1-positive satellite cells and there were sex differences in the percentage of syndecan-4- and glypican-1-positive satellite cells. This study provides new information on dynamic changes in syndecan-4- and glypican-1-positive satellite cells showing that they are differentially expressed during myogenesis and growth selection and sex affects their expression.

Ablation of satellite cell-specific clock gene, Bmal1, alters force production, muscle damage, and repair following contractile-induced injury.

Following injury, skeletal muscle undergoes repair via satellite cell (SC)-mediated myogenic progression. In SCs, the circadian molecular clock gene, Bmal1, is necessary for appropriate myogenic progression and repair with evidence that muscle molecular clocks can also affect force production. Utilizing a mouse model allowing for inducible depletion of Bmal1 within SCs, we determined contractile function, SC myogenic progression and muscle damage and repair following eccentric contractile-induced injury.

Commercial SnO nanocrystals used for producing electron transporting layers (ETLs) of perovskite solar cells (PSC) are prone to aggregation at room temperature and contain many structural defects. Herein, we report that the LiOH additive can simultaneously delay the aggregation and donate the beneficial aging effect to SnO nanocrystals. The resulting SnO ETLs show the desired characteristics, including a broadened absorption range, reduced defects, improved transporting properties, and decreased work function.

Chromatin exists in two main forms: euchromatin, which is relatively decondensed and enriched in transcriptionally active genes, and heterochromatin, which is condensed and transcriptionally repressed . It is widely accepted that chromatin architecture modulates DNA accessibility, restricting the access of sequence-specific, gene-regulatory, transcription factors to the genome.

CH can progress to myeloid malignancies including chronic monomyelocytic leukemia (CMML), and is also strongly associated with inflammatory cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in humans. DNMT3A and TET2 regulate DNA methylation and demethylation pathways respectively, and loss-of-function mutations in these genes reduce DNA methylation in heterochromatin, allowing de-repression of silenced elements in heterochromatin.

Loss of satellite cell pool and function leads to skeletal muscle wasting in many conditions and disease states. Here, we demonstrate that the levels of fibroblast growth factor-inducible 14 (Fn14) are increased in satellite cells after muscle injury.
