    Lipid metabolism, adipocyte depot physiology and utilization of meat animals as experimental models for metabolic research
    (Ivyspring International Publisher, 2010) Dodson, Michael V.; Hausman, Gary J.; Guan, LeLuo; Du, Min; Rasmussen, Theodore P.; Poulos, Sylvia P.; Mir, Priya; Bergen, Werner G.; Fernyhough, Melinda E.; McFarland, Douglas C.; Rhoads, Robert P.; Soret Lafraya, Beatriz; Reecy, James M.; Velleman, Sandra G.; Jiang, Zhihua; Producción Agraria; Nekazaritza Ekoizpena
    Meat animals are unique as experimental models for both lipid metabolism and adipocyte studies because of their direct economic value for animal production. This paper discusses the principles that regulate adipogenesis in major meat animals (beef cattle, dairy cattle, and pigs), the definition of adipose depot-specific regulation of lipid metabolism or adipogenesis, and introduces the potential value of these animals as models for metabolic research including mammary biology and the ontogeny of fatty livers.

    Skeletal muscle stem cells from animals I. basic cell biology
    (Ivyspring International Publisher, 2010) Dodson, Michael V.; Hausman, Gary J.; Guan, LeLuo; Du, Min; Rasmussen, Theodore P.; Poulos, Sylvia P.; Mir, Priya; Bergen, Werner G.; Fernyhough, Melinda E.; McFarland, Douglas C.; Rhoads, Robert P.; Soret Lafraya, Beatriz; Reecy, James M.; Velleman, Sandra G.; Jiang, Zhihua; Producción Agraria; Nekazaritza Ekoizpena
    Skeletal muscle stem cells from food-producing animals are of interest to agricultural life scientists seeking to develop a better understanding of the molecular regulation of lean tissue (skeletal muscle protein hypertrophy) and intramuscular fat (marbling) development. Enhanced understanding of muscle stem cell biology and function is essential for developing technologies and strategies to augment the metabolic efficiency and muscle hypertrophy of growing animals potentially leading to greater efficiency and reduced environmental impacts of animal production, while concomitantly improving product uniformity and consumer acceptance and enjoyment of muscle foods.
