TL;DR: Post-hatching growth of lateral muscle in a teleost fish, Sparus aurata was studied morphometrically to identify and quantify muscle fibre hyperplasia and hypertrophy, and by in vivo nuclear labelling with 5-bromo-deoxyuridine to identify areas of myoblast proliferation.

TL;DR: Genotype had a moderate effect on growth without modifying myopathy occurrence, and gender and feed restriction affected performance, meat quality, and breast abnormalities.

TL;DR: The observed expression profile differed from that in mammals, suggesting possible additional functions of myostatin in the teleost fish, and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction on total RNA extracted from different tissues and developmental stages revealed MSTN expression in the skeletal muscle, but also in other tissues.

TL;DR: Acidic and neutral glycoconjugates were found to be secreted throughout the alimentary canal, the acidic glycoconjongates appeared to be either sialylated or sulphated, and some monosaccharides were abundantly present.

TL;DR: In sea bream, myosin expression in regenerating fibres resembled that seen in new fibres produced in post-larval white muscle, whereas in the zebrafish it resembled that of the primitive monolayer fibres formed during embryonic development.
