Identification of different myofiber types in pigs muscles and construction of regulatory networks.
Article in BMC genomics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundSkeletal muscle is composed of muscle fibers with different physiological characteristics, which plays an important role in regulating skeletal muscle metabolism, movement and body homeostasis. The type of skeletal muscle fiber directly affects meat quality. However, the transcriptome and gene interactions between different types of muscle fibers are not well understood.
resultsIn this paper, we selected 180-days-old Large White pigs and found that longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle was dominated by fast-fermenting myofibrils and soleus (SOL) muscle was dominated by slow-oxidizing myofibrils by frozen sections and related mRNA and protein assays. Here, we selected LD muscle and SOL muscle for transcriptomic sequencing, and identified 312 differentially expressed mRNA (DEmRs), 30 differentially expressed miRNA (DEmiRs), 183 differentially expressed lncRNA (DElRs), and 3417 differentially expressed circRNA (DEcRs). The ceRNA network included ssc-miR-378, ssc-miR-378b-3p, ssc-miR-24-3p, XR_308817, XR_308823, SMIM8, MAVS and FOS as multiple core nodes that play important roles in muscle development. Moreover, we found that different members of the miR-10 family expressed differently in oxidized and glycolytic muscle fibers, among which miR-10a-5p was highly expressed in glycolytic muscle fibers (LD) and could target MYBPH gene mRNA. Therefore, we speculate that miR-10a-5p may be involved in the transformation of muscle fiber types by targeting the MYHBP gene. In addition, PPI analysis of differentially expressed mRNA genes showed that ACTC1, ACTG2 and ACTN2 gene had the highest node degree, suggesting that this gene may play a key role in the regulatory network of muscle fiber type determination.
conclusionsWe can conclude that these genes play a key role in regulating muscle fiber type transformation. Our study provides transcriptomic profiles and ceRNA interaction networks for different muscle fiber types in pigs, providing reference for the transformation of pig muscle fiber types and the improvement of meat quality.
