Sarcopenia is a loss of muscle mass and function in the elderly that reduces mobility,
diminishes quality of life, and can lead to fall-related injuries, which require costly …

The most recent high-profile advocate for Americans with disabilities, actor Christopher
Reeve, has highlighted for the public the economic and social costs of disability and the …

Skeletal Muscle: Form and Function, Second Edition, provides readers with a detailed
understanding of the different facets of muscle physiology. Meticulously researched and …

Adult skeletal muscle fibers are among the few cell types that are truly multinucleated.
Recently, evidence has accumulated supporting a role for the modulation of myonuclear …

Recent loss-of-function studies show that satellite cell depletion does not promote
sarcopenia or unloading-induced atrophy, and does not prevent regrowth. Although …

Skeletal muscle fibres are multinucleate syncitial cells that change size during adult life
depending on functional demand. The relative contribution of change in nuclear number …

Within the current paradigm of the myonuclear domain theory, it is postulated that a linear
relationship exists between muscle fibre size and myonuclear content. The myonuclear …

The intracellular signals that mediate skeletal muscle protein loss and functional deficits due
to muscular disuse are just beginning to be elucidated. Previously we showed that the …

Аннотация Хорошо известно, что регулярные тренировки с отягощением могут
способствовать мышечной гипертрофии. Преобладающее количество исследований …

Resident muscle stem cells, known as satellite cells, are thought to be the main mediators of
skeletal muscle plasticity. Satellite cells are activated, replicate, and fuse into existing …
