Regulation of protein and oxidative energy metabolism are down-regulated in the skeletal muscles of asiatic black bears during hibernation

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Mitsunori Miyazaki from the DepartmentHiroshima University have published the Article: Regulation of protein and oxidative energy metabolism are down-regulated in the skeletal muscles of Asiatic black bears during hibernation, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• what: The authors first examined whether body weight and muscle fiber size were altered by comparing summer active versus winter hibernating periods in Asiatic black bears (Fig 1). In the present study, which examined seasonal alterations using identical individual bears, the authors observed hibernation-associated down-regulations in genes involved in the muscle proteolytic pathways, including ubiquitin . . .
