ABSTRACT
The objective of present experiment was to reveal influence of taurine, nanoparticles of gold or
nanoparticles of gold conjugated with taurine on molecular and morphological status of muscle’s
fibre proliferation activity at the end of embryogenesis. The expression of Proliferating Cell Nuclear
Antigen (PCNA) was determined in embryonic chicken pectoral muscle using real time PCR and
immunohistochemical method. Furthermore, we calculated the average number of nuclei within the
muscle fibre fasciculus in cross sectional image. Taurine, supplemented in ovo to chicken embryo,
enhanced organization of breast muscle by activating molecular mechanisms evaluated as an
expression of PCNA. Nanoparticles of gold did not influence examined parameters.
