CD9- Fibro-Adipose Progenitor Cells in Skeletal Muscle are associated with differences in intramuscular fat deposition content in different pig breeds
Intramuscular fat (IMF) deposition not only holds implications for human health but also greatly impacts the taste and flavor of meat. In this study, Single-cell RNA sequencing was employed to analyze intramuscular vascular stem cells (IVSC) obtained from Guangdong small-ear spotted pig (GDSS) and Yorkshire differing in IMF content. Overall design: Single-cell RNA sequencing was employed to analyze intramuscular vascular stem cells (IVSC) obtained from Guangdong small-ear spotted pig (GDSS) and Yorkshire differing in IMF content.
