Consequently, an expression biomarker panel (whether from mRNA or miRNA) derived from this study may not only be predictive for quality of meat post mortem, but also for many muscle pathologic processes including muscle atrophy, dystrophy, and hypoxia [ 89, 90].
Versican is involved in many physiologic and pathologic processes, including neuronal development [ 32], atherosclerosis [ 33], and the invasive and metastatic signatures of many cancers [ 34].
Recent advances have implicated the adipocyte in many physiologic and pathologic processes, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and muscular disorders [1].
CD95/Fas/Apo-1 is a death receptor that elicits apoptotic signals and functions in many physiologic and pathologic processes.
MiRNAs are non-coding RNAs which target messenger RNA for degradation and translational repression, and are involved in many physiologic and pathologic processes (Calin and Croce, 2009).
As demonstrated here, however, prostaglandin synthesis only accounts for one of many of the pathologic processes that occur in response to inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1.
Other probes have been used to profile proteins involved in many physiologic and pathologic processes, such as tissue remodeling, peptide hormone signaling, and cancer.
The pleiotropic cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF -α is involved in many physiologic and paTNF -αis processes involvedkin (Bashir et al., 2009).
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a member of a superfamily of multifunctional cytokines which mediate development, wound repair, and other pathologic processes in many cell types [ 10].
