Hindlimb abnormality reduces locomotor performance in Pelobates cultripes metamorphs but is not predicted by larval morphometrics [PDF]
Herpetozoa, 2019 Locomotor performance is a fundamental feature commonly related to many animals’ fitness. In most cases, locomotor performance is closely related to morphology of the structures responsible for it, which is therefore under strong selective pressure ...

Denervation in Femoral Artery-Ligated Hindlimbs Diminishes Ischemic Recovery Primarily via Impaired Arteriogenesis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 AIMS:Multiple factors regulate arteriogenesis. Peripheral nerves play a crucial role in vascular remodeling, but the function of peripheral nerves during arteriogenesis is obscure.

Murine Model of Hindlimb Ischemia [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2009 In the United States, peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects about 10 million individuals, and is also prevalent worldwide. Medical therapies for symptomatic relief are limited. Surgical or endovascular interventions are useful for some individuals, but long-term results are often disappointing.

Assessment by thallium-201 of hindlimb muscle blood flow in rats during recovery after hindlimb unloading [PDF]
, 2009 [Purpose] We aimed to evaluate the muscle blood perfusion by the uptake of the radioisotope thallium-201 (201Tl) in 5 hindlimb muscles, the soleus (Sol), plantaris (Pla), gastrocnemius (Gas), extensor digitorum longus (EDL), and tibialis anterior (TA ...

Turtle Flexion Reflex Motor Patterns Show Windup, Mediated Partly by L-type Calcium Channels
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2017 Windup is a form of multisecond temporal summation in which identical stimuli, delivered seconds apart, trigger increasingly strong neuronal responses. L-type Ca2+ channels have been shown to play an important role in the production of windup of spinal ...

Pitx1 is necessary for normal initiation of hindlimb outgrowth through regulation of Tbx4 expression and shapes hindlimb morphologies via targeted growth control [PDF]
, 2011 The forelimbs and hindlimbs of vertebrates are morphologically distinct. Pitx1, expressed in the hindlimb bud mesenchyme, is required for the formation of hindlimb characteristics and produces hindlimb-like morphologies when misexpressed in forelimbs ...
