Myostatin (also known as growth ...
The MSTN gene provides instructions for making a protein called myostatin, which is active in muscles used for movement (skeletal muscles) both before and after birth. A 2010 research paper in the Journal of Musculoskeletal & Neuronal Interactions, which was discussed outside of academic circles, [ 3 ] linked Myostatin to muscle mass and bone ...
A 'Bully Whippet' The Whippet is a generally healthy breed, with a robust constitution. Having been bred for coursing, working, and racing for many years, it has maintained a structurally sound build. This long history of selective breeding has helped it avoid many of the physical exaggerations that often lead to health issues in other breeds.
Research indicates that the majority of variation in coat growth pattern, length and curl can be attributed to mutations in four genes, the R-spondin-2 gene or RSPO2, the fibroblast growth factor-5 gene or FGF5, the keratin-71 gene or KRT71 [15] and the melanocortin 5 receptor gene (MC5R). The wild-type coat in dogs is short, double and straight.
A 2021 New York state law banned the sale of "whipped cream chargers" to anyone under 21 to crack down on recreational whippet use and prevent the sale of nitrous oxide cartridges.
Merle is a genetic pattern in a dog's coat and alleles of the PMEL gene. It results in different colors and patterns and can affect any coats. The allele creates mottled patches of color in a solid or piebald coat, blue or odd-colored eyes, and can affect skin pigment as well. Two types of colored patches generally appear in a merle coat: brown ...
Color dilution alopecia is caused by a dilution gene affecting eumelanin. It is an inherited type of follicular dysplasia. It is an inherited type of follicular dysplasia. It most commonly affects dogs with blue or fawn coats , which are dilutions of black and brown, respectively Dilution is caused by irregularities in melanin transfer and storage.
A professional bull rider from Texas was gunned down by his on-and-off girlfriend shortly after competing in an event at the Utah State Fair, police said.
