Sex Differences in Human Skeletal Muscle Fatigue

Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews, 2001
Research on muscle fatigue suggests that greater fatigue resistance may be evident in females compared with males. The possible mechanisms for this sex difference include factors related to muscle mass, substrate utilization, muscle morphology, and neuromuscular activation.

Transcapillary insulin transfer in human skeletal muscle

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2003
AbstractBackground Transcapillary insulin transfer is considered a rate‐limiting step in insulin action at supraphysiological insulin concentrations. However, it remains unclear whether this concept also applies for physiological conditions.Materials and methods In the present study we set out to characterize transcapillary insulin transfer by ...

Fenestrated blood vessels in human skeletal muscle

Acta Neuropathologica, 1979
In a fine structural study of 32 skeletal muscle biopsies, rare examples of fenestrated blood vessels (FV) were found in three cases. In view of similar observations reported in a case of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, it is suggested that FV albeit rare may occur in skeletal muscle at least under pathologic conditions.

Vascular remodelling in human skeletal muscle

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2011
Exercise-induced angiogenesis in skeletal muscle involves both non-sprouting and sprouting angiogenesis and results from the integrated responses of multiple systems and stimuli. VEGF-A (vascular endothelial growth factor A) levels are increased in exercised muscle and have been demonstrated to be critical for exercise-induced capillary growth.

Human skeletal muscle releases leptin in vivo

Cytokine, 2012
Leptin is considered an adipokine, however, cultured myocytes have also been found to release leptin. Therefore, as proof-of-concept we investigated if human skeletal muscle synthesized leptin by measuring leptin in skeletal muscle biopsies. Following this, we quantified human skeletal muscle and adipose tissue leptin release in vivo.

Sodium currents in human skeletal muscle fibers

Muscle & Nerve, 1982
AbstractSodium currents from human external intercostal muscle fibers were recorded using the Hille‐Campbell voltage clamp method. Sodium currents are analyzed in terms of the m and h parameters of the Hodgkin‐Huxley model. The results indicate that the kinetics and voltage dependence of sodium currents in human skeletal muscle fibers are very similar ...

Skeletal muscle capillary basement membranes in humans

Acta Neuropathologica, 1971
100 skeletal muscle capillaries from the biopsy specimens from 5 individuals free of known neuromuscular disease were studied to determine basement membrane widtht Range was from 1500 to 4400 A, with a mean of 2200 A. This degree of variability was no, different from the spectrum of basement membrane widths seen in pathological specimens indicating ...
