Skeletal muscle conveys several of the health-promoting effects of exercise; yet the
underlying mechanisms are not fully elucidated. Studying skeletal muscle is challenging due …

Skeletal muscle is a heterogeneous tissue composed of different fiber types. Studies
suggest that insulin-mediated glucose metabolism is different between muscle fiber types …

Skeletal muscle dysfunction contributes to exercise limitation in COPD. In this study cigarette
smoke exposure was hypothesized to increase expression of the inflammatory cytokine, TNF …

Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2H (LGMD2H) and sarcotubular myopathy are
hereditary skeletal muscle disorders caused by mutations in TRIM32. We previously …

Thrombospondin‐1 (TSP‐1) is a known inhibitor of angiogenesis; however, a skeletal
muscle phenotype of TSP‐1 null mice has not been investigated. The purposes of this study …

The molecular mechanisms by which resistance exercise enlarges muscle mass, particularly
the mass of fast-twitch type II fibers, are likely to involve enhanced phosphorylation …

Skeletal muscle comprises several fiber types classified based on their contractile and
metabolic properties. Skeletal muscle fiber types are classified according to their myosin …

Key points Mitochondrial respiratory sensitivity to ADP is thought to influence muscle fitness
and is partly regulated by cytosolic–mitochondrial diffusion of ADP or phosphate shuttling …

Muscle fiber type, fiber cross-sectional area (CSA), enzyme activities (citrate synthase (CS),
3-hydroxyacetyl Co A dehydrogenase (3HAD), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and …

Very little is known about how long-term (> 6 months) adaptation to a low-carbohydrate, high-
fat (LCHF) diet affects insulin signaling in healthy, well-trained individuals. This study …
