Fiber-Type Elasticity

Textile Research Journal, 1979
This is an elementary introduction to the type of classical elasticity most likely to be exhibited by fibers. It relates to properties that are independent of direction in certain transverse planes, but which may be quite different in the axial direction that is normal to these planes.

Congenital familial myopathy with type 2 fiber hypoplasia and type 1 fiber predominance

Brain and Development, 1997
A 12-month-old girl with delayed developmental milestones, due to muscle hypotonia and weakness from early infancy, exhibited type 2 fiber hypoplasia. A muscle biopsy specimen disclosed type 1 fiber predominance and type 2B fiber deficiency compatible with congenital myopathy.

Muscle type and fiber type specificity in muscle wasting

The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2013
Muscle wasting occurs in a variety of conditions, including both genetic diseases, such as muscular dystrophies, and acquired disorders, ranging from muscle disuse to cancer cachexia, from heart failure to aging sarcopenia. In most of these conditions, the loss of muscle tissue is not homogeneous, but involves specific muscle groups, for example ...

Types of human intrafusal muscle fibers

Muscle & Nerve, 1979
AbstractThe histochemical and fine structural profiles of human intrafusal muscle fibers were studied. Spindles were located in freshly frozen specimens taken from biopsied normal external intercostal muscles, and periodic 10‐ and 50‐μm‐thick cross sections were processed alternately for enzyme histochemical and electron microscopic examination ...

Cell and fiber type distribution of dystrophin

Neuron, 1988
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is the result of dystrophin deficiency. We have determined the cell types likely to express the pathogenic effects of this neuromuscular disease by determining the pattern of dystrophin expression in normal cells. We find that all physiological types of muscle cells express dystrophin at similar levels, and that the ...

Types of Optical Fibers

2017
Not all optical fibers are alike. Several different types, made for different applications, guide light in different ways. This chapter describes the basic concepts behind standard fibers, concentrating on fiber design and light guiding. It is closely linked to the chapters that follow.

Familial Type I fiber atrophy

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 1975
An 11-year-old boy and his 40-year-old mother with congenital, non-progressive muscular weakness and wasting are described. Muscle biopsies from both cases showed a selective atrophy of Type I fibers without any structural change except for very few nemaline bodies.

Muscle fiber types.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 1982
This review describes muscle fiber types based on their histochemical, ultrastructural, biochemical, and physiologic properties. Reportedly the speed of muscle fiber contraction is directly proportional to relative myosin ATPase activity (at pH 9.4) while fatigability relates to relative oxidative capacity. Type I fibers have low ATPase activity (at pH

Determination of Muscle Fiber Type in Rodents

Current Protocols in Mouse Biology, 2012
AbstractSkeletal muscles consist of muscle fibers that can differ in both composition and functional characteristics. These three types of muscle fibers, broadly categorized as slow, fast IIa, and fast IIb muscle fibers, express characteristic myosin heavy chain proteins and have different metabolic and enzymatic activities, which can be used as ...

Congenital fiber-type disproportion myopathy with type I fiber predominance and type II fiber smallness and atrophy--a sterological analysis.

Clinical neuropathology, 2005
Congenital myopathy with fiber-type disproportion is an established disorder, where type I fibers predominate with smallness of the same type. We report a family with three siblings (12-year-old boy, 9-year-old girl, and 6-year-old boy) with clinical features of congenital myopathy, where muscle biopsy in the eldest sib showed fiber-type disproportion.
