Effects of alfacalcidol on circulating cytokines and growth factors in rat skeletal muscle [PDF]
Supra-physiological levels of vitamin D induce skeletal muscle atrophy, which may be particularly detrimental in already sarcopaenic elderly. Neither the cause nor whether the atrophy is fibre type specific are known.

Regulation of skeletal muscle atrophy
Skeletal muscle atrophy can result from prolonged periods of skeletal muscle inactivity due to bed rest, denervation, or unloading. Such unloading-associated atrophy of skeletal muscle is characterized by both an increase in protein degradation and a ...

Muscle atrophy is a common complication of heart failure. At present, there is no specific treatment to reverse the course of muscle atrophy. Exercise training, due to the safety and easy operation, is a recommended therapy for muscle atrophy induced by ...

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.

Porcine congenital splayleg is characterised by muscle fibre atrophy associated with relative rise in MAFbx and fall in P311 expression [PDF]
<p>Background: Porcine congenital splayleg (PCS) is the most important congenital condition of piglets, associated with lameness and immobility, of unknown aetiology and pathogenesis, hence the need to better understand the condition by defining ...

Potential Therapeutic Strategies for Skeletal Muscle Atrophy
The maintenance of muscle homeostasis is vital for life and health. Skeletal muscle atrophy not only seriously reduces people’s quality of life and increases morbidity and mortality, but also causes a huge socioeconomic burden.

A functional motor unit in the culture dish : co-culture of spinal cord explants and muscle cells [PDF]
Human primary muscle cells cultured aneurally in monolayer rarely contract spontaneously because, in the absence of a nerve component, cell differentiation is limited and motor neuron stimulation is missing(1). These limitations hamper the in vitro study

Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 promotes ubiquitin–proteasome system‐dependent muscle atrophy
Background Muscle atrophy, leading to muscular dysfunction and weakness, is an adverse outcome of sustained period of glucocorticoids usage. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this detrimental condition is currently unclear.
