Transdifferentiation of Myoblasts Into Adipocytes by All-Trans-Retinoic Acid in Avian

Dong-Hwan Kim et al.

Summary: This study found that all-trans-retinoic acid (atRA) can induce the transdifferentiation of myoblasts into adipocytes by increasing the expression of Ppar gamma. This discovery provides a new nutrient for enhancing marbling in poultry.

Interactions between lipid source and vitamin A on broiler performance, blood parameters, fat and protein deposition rate, and bone development

V. D. L. Savaris et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of lipid source and vitamin A level on growth performance and feed efficiency of male broilers. It was found that lipid source influenced feed intake and feed conversion ratio, while vitamin A supplementation affected feed intake and weight gain.

Research Note: Potential usage of DF-1 cell line as a new cell model for avian adipogenesis

Joonbum Lee et al.

Summary: In this study, immortal fibroblasts DF-1 cells derived from embryonic chickens were utilized as a new model for adipogenesis research. It was found that DF-1 cells exhibited significant adipogenic potential and upregulation of marker genes when cultured in media containing CS with FI and atRA.

Hypertrophy of Adipose Tissues in Quail Embryos by in ovo Injection of All-Trans Retinoic Acid

Dong-Hwan Kim et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that atRA promotes hypertrophic fat accretion in quail embryos, especially when injected at embryonic day 7. This results in an increase in fat cell size and an up-regulation of pro-adipogenic marker genes in adipose tissues.
