Tail-suspension Induces Altered Expression of GAPDH and ZAKI-4β mRNAs in Rat Hindlimbs : Implication for Disuse Muscle Atrophy

open access: yes, 2003
2003-12Disuse atrophy of skeletal muscle is a serious complication for a number of bed-ridden patients. We previously demonstrated that unloading of hindlimb muscles by rat tail-suspension for 7 days resulted in disuse atrophy.

The molecular dissection of the regulation of PGC-1α and the genome-wide activity of its transcriptional network in skeletal muscle cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The transcriptional coactivator peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) is a potent inducer of mitochondrial biogenesis and oxidative metabolism.

Association Between Motor Pathway Damage and Motor Deficit in Upper and Lower Limb in People With MS

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Corticospinal tract damage is common in people with MS, but the degree of clinical symptoms varies. We hypothesize that corticospinal tract lesions are more extensive and severe in people with MS with motor impairments in both upper and lower limbs.

Stress responsive miR-23a attenuates skeletal muscle atrophy by targeting MAFbx /atrogin-1

open access: yes, 2008
Muscle atrophy occurs in many pathological states and results primarily from accelerated protein degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. We used dexamethasone to induce muscle wasting and investigated the role of a microRNA (miRNA) in the ...

Recurrent Hypothermia and Autonomic Dysfunction Secondary to Shapiro Syndrome

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 44‐year‐old man presented with recurrent hypothermia, diaphoresis and hypertension. Extensive investigation for infectious, inflammatory, metabolic and endocrine aetiologies was negative. MR scan of the brain demonstrated no lesions but revealed callosal dysgenesis, consistent with Shapiro syndrome.

Skeletal muscle mTORC1 regulates whole-body metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Skeletal muscle, which represents over 40% of the total body mass, is a dynamic tissue with a key role in the maintenance of metabolic homeostasis. Several lines of evidence indicate that alterations of the normal muscle function, as for example in ...

Evaluation of Digital Technologies for Home‐Based Assessment in People With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Digital technologies hold promise for transforming healthcare by enhancing personalized treatments and offer valuable opportunities to improve patient care. Here, we evaluated several novel, self‐administered, home‐based, digital endpoints for their association with corresponding conventional standard clinical measures (primary) in ...

Changes in temporal muscle dimensions and their clinical impact in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survivors

open access: yesResuscitation Plus
Objective: This study investigates temporal muscle atrophy in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients post-resuscitation, seeking associations with neurological outcomes and factors associated with atrophy. Methods: Using data from six Japanese intensive

PGC-1a in muscle links metabolism to inflammation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
1. In higher eukaryotes, metabolism and immunity are tightly coupled. However, whereas in evolutionary terms, a compromised immune response due to undernourishment has been the predominant problem, the inflammatory response to obesity and other life ...

The role of mTOR complex 1 in skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
An important factor in energy and nutrient pathways is the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). The multiprotein complex, with the central component mTOR, regulates cell growth and survival.
