Muscle-specific downregulation of GR levels inhibits adipogenesis in porcine intramuscular adipocyte tissue
Abstract Intramuscular adipose is conducive to good pork quality, whereas subcutaneous adipose is considered as waste in pig production. So uncovering the regulation differences between these two adiposes is helpful to tissue-specific control of fat deposition. In this study, we found the sensitivit...
