Molecular brakes regulating mTORC1 activation in skeletal muscle following synergist ablation [PDF]
The goal of the current work was to profile positive (mTORC1 activation, autocrine/paracrine growth factors) and negative [AMPK, unfolded protein response (UPR)] pathways that might regulate overload-induced mTORC1 activation with the hypothesis that a ...

Cell cultures of human ciliary muscle: growth, ultrastructural and immunocytochemical characteristics [PDF]
Primary ciliary muscle cell cultures derived from human donors (16-91 years) were established and characterized by comparing them with ciliary muscle in tissue sections using immunocytochemical and ultrastructural methods.

Mouse skeletal muscle fiber-type-specific macroautophagy and muscle wasting are regulated by a Fyn/STAT3/Vps34 signaling pathway [PDF]
Skeletal muscle atrophy induced by aging (sarcopenia), inactivity, and prolonged fasting states (starvation) is predominantly restricted to glycolytic type II muscle fibers and typical spares oxidative type I fibers.

Estimation of Muscle Fatigue of Low Back upon the Muscle Stiffness [PDF]
An estimation of muscle fatigue is very important study and many laboratory researchers had done actively in this field. The excellent measurement and analysis methods, however, have not established yet.

An electrooptical muscle contraction sensor [PDF]
An electrooptical sensor for the detection of muscle contraction is described. Infrared light is injected into the muscle, the backscattering is observed, and the contraction is detected by measuring the change, that occurs during muscle contraction ...

Fat oxidation, fitness and skeletal muscle expression of oxidative/lipid metabolism genes in South Asians: implications for insulin resistance? [PDF]
<p><b>Background:</b> South Asians are more insulin resistant than Europeans, which cannot be fully explained by differences in adiposity. We investigated whether differences in oxidative capacity and capacity for fatty acid utilisation
