Radiographic Morphometric Measurements of the Donkey’s Distal Hind Limb

open access: yesAnimals
Morphometric measurements of the toe serve as a reference for the objective assessment of the presence of a pathological condition and as a guide for the correct trimming of the hooves.

Inhibiting myostatin signaling partially mitigates structural and functional adaptations to hindlimb suspension in mice

open access: yesnpj Microgravity, 2023
Novel treatments for muscle wasting are of significant value to patients with disease states that result in muscle weakness, injury recovery after immobilization and bed rest, and for astronauts participating in long-duration spaceflight.

Inhibition of myeloperoxidase increases revascularization and improves blood flow in a diabetic mouse model of hindlimb ischaemia

open access: yesDiabetes & Vascular Disease Research, 2020
Objective: Diabetes mellitus is a significant risk factor for peripheral artery disease. Diabetes mellitus induces chronic states of oxidative stress and vascular inflammation that increase neutrophil activation and release of myeloperoxidase.

Cordymin alleviates osteoporosis induced by hindlimb unloading via regulating the gut - microelements -bone axis --for non-clinical studies

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Introduction The purpose of this study was to evaluate the protective effects of cordymin on osteoporosis induced by hindlimb unloading(HLU) in rats and whether cordymin can prevent bone loss from HLU.

Pharmacological and Genetic Inhibition of PD-1 Demonstrate an Important Role of PD-1 in Ischemia-Induced Skeletal Muscle Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, and Angiogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Angiogenesis is an important process under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Here we investigated the role and the underlying mechanism of PD-1 in hindlimb ischemia-induced inflammation and angiogenesis in mice.

Early‐life high‐fat diet exposure increases Achilles tendon stiffness and induces transcriptomic alterations

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.

Rewiring of hindlimb corticospinal neurons after spinal cord injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Little is known about the functional role of axotomized cortical neurons that survive spinal cord injury. Large thoracic spinal cord injuries in adult rats result in impairments of hindlimb function.

Regional Lymphatic Inclusion in Orthotopic Hindlimb Transplantation: Establishment and Assessment of Feasibility in a Rodent Model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background The lymphatic system may play an important role in local immunomodulation in vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA). Currently, there is no standardized VCA model that includes the regional draining lymphatic tissue.

CT-based optimization of hindlimb muscle measurement levels and development of a hindlimb muscle condition score in dogs

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionObjective assessment of hindlimb skeletal muscles in dogs remains challenging in small animal practice. This study aimed to use computed tomography (CT) to characterize hindlimb muscle distribution, identify optimal measurement levels, and ...
