EXERCISE MYOPATHY: CHANGES IN MYOFIBRILS OF FAST-TWITCH MUSCLE FIBRES [PDF]
Biology of Sport, 2014 The purpose of the present study was to determine the relationships between the changes of myofibrils in fast-twitch oxidative-glycolytic (type IIA) fibres and fast-twitch glycolytic (type IIB) muscle fibres, protein synthesis and degradation rate in ...

Absence of the Z-disc protein α-actinin-3 impairs the mechanical stability of Actn3KO mouse fast-twitch muscle fibres without altering their contractile properties or twitch kinetics [PDF]
Skeletal Muscle, 2022 Background A common polymorphism (R577X) in the ACTN3 gene results in the complete absence of the Z-disc protein α-actinin-3 from fast-twitch muscle fibres in ~ 16% of the world’s population.

MCARE enhances SERCA1 activity in fast-twitch muscle to maintain calcium handling and muscle integrity [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the cytoplasm, followed by its reuptake by sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA), is critical for the muscle contraction-relaxation cycle. In this study, we identify a small transmembrane

The fast-twitch muscle calsequestrin isoform predominates in rabbit slow-twitch soleus muscle [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1989 The major form of calsequestrin in rabbit slow‐twitch soleus muscle is shown to be identical to that isolated and cloned from rabbit fast‐twitch muscle on the following bases: identity of cDNAs cloned from mRNAs from the two muscle sources; equivalent hybridization of a fast‐twitch calsequestrin cDNA probe to mRNAs isolated from fast‐twitch and slow ...

Skeletal Fiber Type in Muscle Pain and Dysfunction [PDF]
BiomedicinesDifferent types of skeletal muscle fibers display marked heterogeneity in metabolic, mechanical, and regenerative properties. However, their role in chronic musculoskeletal pain remains insufficiently integrated into clinical models.

Expression profiles and transcript properties of fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscles in a deep-sea highly migratory fish, Pseudocaranx dentex [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscles are the two principal skeletal muscle types in teleost with obvious differences in metabolic and contractile phenotypes. The molecular mechanisms that control and maintain the different muscle types remain unclear yet.
