Role of PAX7 in Muscular Dystrophies
Myogenesis is a series of progressive development of skeletal muscle tissue over a lifetime where myoblasts, the early mononucleated committed precursor cells of skeletal muscle fuse together and differentiate into myotubes, the multinucleated muscle cells that later undergo further differentiation and fusion to form myofibers. Myoblast heterogeneity stems from three types of myoblasts: embryonic, fetal, and adult myoblasts with distinct genetic backgrounds that are traditionally distinguished by desmin, myogenin (MyoG), and myosin heavy chain isoform (MyHC) expression. These myoblast transitions are thought to overlap at multiple points during myogenesis, due to the activation of several factors. Four myogenic regulatory factors (MRF), Myogenic factor 5 (Myf5), Mrf4, Myogenic Differentiation 1 (MyoD), and MyoG play critical roles in the precise differentiation of progenitor myoblasts into myofibers during embryonic-to-adult myogenesis. Pax7 is closely associated with myogenesis, which is governed by various signaling pathways throughout a lifetime and is frequently used as an indicator in muscle research.

Mucopolysaccharidosis Type VI
Mucopolysaccharidosis type VI (MPS VI), also known as Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome, is a progressive condition that causes many tissues and organs to enlarge and become inflamed or scarred. Skeletal abnormalities are also common in this condition. The rate at which symptoms worsen varies among affected individuals.

Hypomagnesemia with Secondary Hypocalcemia
Hypomagnesemia with secondary hypocalcemia is an inherited condition caused by the body's inability to absorb and retain magnesium that is taken in through the diet. As a result, magnesium levels in the blood are severely low (hypomagnesemia).

BPH-Resistance Gene Mapping
The brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stål, BPH) is one of the most serious pests that harm rice production. N. lugens soaks up phloem sap by inserting needle-like stylets into the vascular tissue of rice (Oryza sativa L.). Utilizing the inherent resistance has been widely considered as the most cost-effective method for sustainable BPH control. To date, more than 49 BPH-resistance genes/QTLs have been detected and rice varieties containing one or more BPH-resistance genes/QTLs have been developed to reduce the loss of rice yield induced by BPH feeding.
