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.

Anatomical and biomechanical traits of broiler chickens across ontogeny. Part II. Body segment inertial properties and muscle architecture of the pelvic limb [PDF]
, 2014 In broiler chickens, genetic success for desired production traits is often shadowed by welfare concerns related to musculoskeletal health. Whilst these concerns are clear, a viable solution is still elusive.

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 ...

Nerve Ultrasound in Traumatic and Iatrogenic Peripheral Nerve Injury
Diagnostics, 2020 Peripheral nerve injury is a potentially debilitating disorder that occurs in an estimated 2–3% of all patients with major trauma, in a similar percentage of medical procedures.

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.

Validity of measurement of shear modulus by ultrasound shear wave elastography in human pennate muscle. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Ultrasound shear wave elastography is becoming a valuable tool for measuring mechanical properties of individual muscles. Since ultrasound shear wave elastography measures shear modulus along the principal axis of the probe (i.e., along the transverse ...
