Visual deprivation induces a stronger dive response in a harbor porpoise

iScience, 2023
Summary: The dive response allows marine mammals to perform prolonged breath-hold dives to access rich marine prey resources. Via dynamic adjustments of peripheral vasoconstriction and bradycardia, oxygen consumption can be tailored to breath-hold ...

Defining Physiological Normoxia for Improved Translation of Cell Physiology to Animal Models and Humans.

Physiological Reviews, 2019
The extensive oxygen gradient between the air we breathe (Po2 ~21 kPa) and its ultimate distribution within mitochondria (as low as ~0.5-1 kPa) is testament to the efforts expended in limiting its inherent toxicity.

Myofiber androgen receptor increases muscle strength mediated by a skeletal muscle splicing variant of Mylk4

iScience, 2021
Summary: Androgens have a robust effect on skeletal muscles to increase muscle mass and strength. The molecular mechanism of androgen/androgen receptor (AR) action on muscle strength is still not well known, especially for the regulation of sarcomeric ...
