    School of Medical Sciences, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, AB25 2ZD, UK
    BMC Genomics 13:592. 2012
    ..To facilitate nomination of the candidate genes responsible for these differences we examined the transcriptome of the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle of each strain by RNA-Seq...

    Mouse Genomics Resource Laboratory, National Institute of Genetics, Mishima, Shizuoka 411 8540, Japan
    BMC Genet 10:40. 2009
    ..Here, we report on quantitative trait loci for different components of spontaneous activity, an important step towards dissection of the underlying genetic mechanisms...

    School of Medical Sciences, College of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of Aberdeen, Foresterhill, Aberdeen AB25 2ZD, Scotland, UK
    J Hered 101:360-7. 2010
    ..A panel of BXD RI strains is a useful tool in exploring the genetic mechanisms underlying SFAA and improving our understanding of musculoskeletal development...

    A Lionikas
    School of Medical Sciences, College of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of Aberdeen, Foresterhill, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
    Physiol Genomics 42:33-8. 2010
    ..Combination of analyses in an F(2) and AI was an effective strategy to detect and refine the QTL in a genome-wide manner. The achieved resolution facilitates further elucidation of the underlying genetic mechanisms affecting muscle mass...
  5. ncbi Constitutive expression of yes-associated protein (yap) in adult skeletal muscle fibres induces muscle atrophy and myopathy
    Robert N Judson
    School of Medicine and Dentistry, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
    PLoS ONE 8:e59622. 2013
    ..To conclude, high Yap activity in muscle fibres does not induce fibre hypertrophy nor fibre type changes but instead results in a reversible atrophy and deterioration...

    Aivaras Ratkevicius
    School of Medical Sciences, College of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of Aberdeen, Foresterhill, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
    Physiol Genomics 42:96-102. 2010
    ..In summary, H55N polymorphism in Cs could be the underlying cause of low CS activity and its high affinity for substrates in A/J mice compared with other strains. This SNP might also play a role in resistance to obesity of A/J mice...
