Generation of a Motor Nerve Organoid with Human Stem Cell-Derived Neurons
Stem Cell Reports, 2017 Summary: During development, axons spontaneously assemble into a fascicle to form nerves and tracts in the nervous system as they extend within a spatially constrained path. However, understanding of the axonal fascicle has been hampered by lack of an in

Sports Medicine - Open, 2023 Background Long-term stretching of human skeletal muscles increases joint range of motion through altered stretch perception and decreased resistance to stretch. There is also some evidence that stretching induces changes in muscle morphology.

Investigating the Effect of Aging on the Viscosity of Tendon Fascicles and Fibers
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019 In the current work, we investigate the effect of aging on the viscosity of tendon subunits. To that scope, we make use of experimental relaxation curves of healthy and aged tendon fascicles and fibers, upon which we identify the viscosity parameters ...

The force-length relation of the young adult human tibialis anterior [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background Knowledge of the muscle’s lengths at which maximum active isometric force is attained is important for predicting forces during movement. However, there is limited information about the in vivo force-length properties of a human muscle that ...

Pattern of fibre type distribution within muscle fascicles of pigs (Sus scrofa domestica)
Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2007 In order to determine breed differences in the fascicle structure of skeletal muscles, longissimus dorsi muscles (LD) and semimembranous muscles (SM), Duroc (D), Large White (LW), German Landrace (GL) and Swedish Landrace (SL) boars were analyzed.

Energy transfer in reactive movements as a function of individual stretch load
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Background: By directly recording electromyographic activity profiles and muscle-tendon interaction, this study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms why well-trained track and field athletes (experts) are able to outperform untrained individuals without ...

Ontogenetic scaling patterns and functional anatomy of the pelvic limb musculature in emus (Dromaius novaehollandiae) [PDF]
, 2014 Emus (Dromaius novaehollandiae) are exclusively terrestrial, bipedal and cursorial ratites with some similar biomechanical characteristics to humans. Their growth rates are impressive, as their body mass increases eighty-fold from hatching to adulthood ...
