From: Neonatal vitamin A injection promotes cattle muscle growth and increases oxidative muscle fibers

Fig. 5

Vitamin A treatment increased oxidative muscle fibers. a Representative images showing fiber types in biopsy muscle (scale bar = 100 μm). b The proportion of fiber type composition in biopsy muscle. c Representative images showing fiber types in LD muscle at harvest. d The proportion of fiber type composition in LD muscle at harvest. e mRNA levels of PPARGC1A in biopsy muscle. f Mononuclear cells isolated from cattle muscle without vitamin A treatment were transfected with Pgc1a plasmid and treated with RA for 4 h, and the luciferase activity driven by the Pgc1a promoter was analyzed. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001; Mean ± SEM; n = 9
