Figure 3From: Porcine congenital splayleg is characterised by muscle fibre atrophy associated with relative rise in MAFbx and fall in P311expressionComparison of muscle gene expression between PCS affected and normal muscles. Quantitative expression of MYHslow, MYH2x and MYH2b in ST, LD and G muscles, presented as combined results of 4 sets of 2-day-old PCS piglets. Differences between pair-wise combinations of the least square means were tested for significance (*p < 0.05). PCS piglets showed significantly lower expression of MYHslow in LD and G muscles, and lower expression of MYH2x and MYH2b in ST muscles. Asterisks indicate statistical significance between normal and PCS muscles. Error bars indicate standard error.Back to article page
