Mammalian skeletal muscle comprises different fiber types, whose identity is first established
during embryonic development by intrinsic myogenic control mechanisms and is later …

The ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are a family of Ca2+ release channels found on
intracellular Ca2+ storage/release organelles. The RyR channels are ubiquitously …

Skeletal muscle is a complex, versatile tissue composed of a large variety of functionally
diverse fiber types. The overall properties of a muscle largely result from a combination of …

Les cellules des muscles squelettiques des mammifères ont un grand potentiel d'adaptation.
Ce potentiel d'adaptation découle de la capacité d'ajustement des fibres musculaires à des …

Striated respiratory muscles are necessary for lung ventilation and to maintain the patency of
the upper airway. The basic structural and functional properties of respiratory muscles are …

The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) exhibits high morphological and functional plasticity. In
the mature muscle, the relative levels of physical activity are the major determinants of NMJ …

Objective The withdrawal of cerivastatin involved an uncommon but serious adverse
reaction, rhabdomyolysis. The bimodal response, rhabdomyolysis in a small proportion of …

Although the reduction in dystrophin-associated glycoproteins is the primary
pathophysiological consequence of the deficiency in dystrophin, little is known about the …

A decline in long-term memory (LTM) formation is a common feature of the normal aging
process, which corresponds with abnormal expression of memory-related genes in the aged …

Regular endurance exercise remodels skeletal muscle, largely through the peroxisome
proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α). PGC-1α promotes fiber type …
