The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

Physiological ReportsThe dystrophin protein has well‐characterized roles in force transmission and maintaining membrane integrity during muscle contraction. Studies have reported decreased expression of dystrophin in atrophying muscles during wasting conditions, and that ...

Steric regulation of tandem calponin homology domain actin-binding affinity. [PDF]
, 2019 Tandem calponin homology (CH1-CH2) domains are common actin-binding domains in proteins that interact with and organize the actin cytoskeleton. Despite regions of high sequence similarity, CH1-CH2 domains can have remarkably different actin-binding ...

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

Agrin-induced acetylcholine receptor clustering in mammalian muscle requires tyrosine phosphorylation. [PDF]
, 1996 Agrin is thought to be the nerve-derived factor that initiates acetylcholine receptor (AChR) clustering at the developing neuromuscularjunction. We have investigated the signaling pathway in mouse C2 myotubes and report that agrin induces a rapid but ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend In healthy young males, we found that skeletal muscle hypertrophy following a period of resistance exercise training (RET) was consistent within and between subjects, as assessed using a variety of established methods. The skeletal muscle hypertrophic response was independent of external load.

Functional characterization of orbicularis oculi and extraocular muscles [PDF]
, 2016 The orbicularis oculi are the sphincter muscles of the eyelids and are involved in modulating facial expression. They differ from both limb and extraocular muscles (EOMs) in their histology and biochemistry. Weakness of the orbicularis oculi muscles is a

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Background Peripheral nerve injury‐induced muscle atrophy shares core pathophysiological features with systemic wasting disorders including cachexia and sarcopenia, yet early molecular triggers remain undefined. This study investigates the pathogenic role of receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) in denervation atrophy.
