Fig. 5From: Transfer of β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate from sows to their offspring and its impact on muscle fiber type transformation and performance in pigsEffects of feeding HMB to lactating sows on fast-MyHC protein expression in skeletal muscle of the offspring during d 28 and 180 after birth. Values are means, with their standard errors represented by vertical bars (n = 6). *Represents mean values between the two groups differ significantly at P < 0.05. a (the offspring during d 28 after birth); b (the offspring during d 180 after birth); MyHC myosin heavy chain; GAPDH glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. CON control; HMB β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrateBack to article page
