Knee Extensors Muscle Plasticity Over a 5-Years Rehabilitation Process After Open Knee Surgery
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 We investigated molecular and cellular parameters which set metabolic and mechanical functioning of knee extensor muscles in the operated and contralateral control leg of 9 patients with a chronically insufficient anterior cruciate ligament (ACL; 26.6 ...

Mechanical Behavior of Fiber-Reinforced Soils under Undrained Triaxial Loading Conditions
Geotechnics, 2023 The design of fiber-reinforced soil structures, such as embankments and pavements, can be carried out using the results of unconsolidated, undrained triaxial compression tests conducted on specimens at their “as-compacted” water content and analyzed in ...

Resistance exercise training promotes fiber type-specific myonuclear adaptations in older adults.
Journal of applied physiology, 2020 Aging induces physiological decline in human skeletal muscle function and morphology including type II fiber atrophy and an increase in type I fiber frequency.

Effect of Gender, Rearing, and Cooking on the Metabolomic Profile of Porcine Muscles
Metabolites, 2019 To clarify the relationship between the fiber type composition and meat quality, we performed metabolomic analysis using porcine longissimus dorsi (LD) muscles.

Skeletal Muscle Adaptations to Exercise Training in Young and Aged Horses
Frontiers in Aging, 2021 In aged humans, low-intensity exercise increases mitochondrial density, function and oxidative capacity, decreases the prevalence of hybrid fibers, and increases lean muscle mass, but these adaptations have not been studied in aged horses. Effects of age

Nuclear receptors and skeletal muscle fiber type
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2015 The contractile and metabolic properties of skeletal muscle depend on muscle fiber type composition. There are two major fiber types: type 1 fibers (slow-twitch oxidative) and type 2 fibers (fast-twitch glycolytic).

Congenital Fiber-Type Disproportion
Definitions, 2020 Congenital fiber-type disproportion is a condition that primarily affects skeletal muscles, which are muscles used for movement. People with this condition typically experience muscle weakness (myopathy), particularly in the muscles of the shoulders ...

Less Is More: The Physiological Basis for Tapering in Endurance, Strength, and Power Athletes
Sports, 2015 Taper, or reduced-volume training, improves competition performance across a broad spectrum of exercise modes and populations. This article aims to highlight the physiological mechanisms, namely in skeletal muscle, by which taper improves performance and
