Biology of Cultured Nerve and Muscle

Annual Review of Neuroscience, 1978
Cells from the nervous system can be grown in culture and exhibit many of the biophysical, biochemical, and morphological properties found in vivo. They can be induced to differentiate in culture and perform some of the interactions that occur in the nervous system, including synaptogenesis.

Biology of the anococcygeus muscle

2001
The anococcygeus is a smooth muscle tissue of the urogenital tract which, in the male, runs on to form the retractor penis. The motor innervation is classically sympathetic with noradrenaline as transmitter, but the relaxant parasympathetic transmitter has only recently been identified as nitric oxide. Indeed, the anococcygeus has provided an extremely

Muscle Injuries

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2005
Muscle injuries are one of the most common traumas occurring in sports. Despite their clinical importance, few clinical studies exist on the treatment of these traumas. Thus, the current treatment principles of muscle injuries have either been derived from experimental studies or been tested only empirically.

Molecular Biology of Human Muscle Disease

Nature Biotechnology, 1991
The molecular revolution that is transforming the entire biomedical field has had far-reaching impact in its application to inherited human muscle disease. The gene for Duchenne muscular dystrophy was one of the first cloned without knowledge of the defective protein product.

A guide to study Drosophila muscle biology

Methods, 2014
The development and molecular composition of muscle tissue is evolutionarily conserved. Drosophila is a powerful in vivo model system to investigate muscle morphogenesis and function. Here, we provide a short and comprehensive overview of the important developmental steps to build Drosophila body muscle in embryos, larvae and pupae.

Molecular biology of smooth muscle

Journal of Hypertension, 1992
Several myosin isoforms are expressed in smooth muscle, based upon both heavy and light chain polymorphisms. These myosin isoenzymes reveal distinct detachment rate constants, thus regulating the responsiveness of the VSMC contractile apparatus to Ca2+, as well as its energetical and mechanical behavior.

Skeletal Muscle Biology in Nursing

Biological Research For Nursing, 2008
Skeletal muscle research in nursing is limited in comparison with other biological research. However, the sparseness of this area of inquiry does not reflect the scientific or clinical importance of this type of research. Skeletal muscle is essential for vital functions such as breathing, walking, and performing daily activities of living and other ...

The Biology of Muscle Transplantation

1981
After a long history of unsuccessful attempts, the free grafting of entire mammahan muscles has been accomphshed in both the research laboratory (Bosova, 1962; Studitsky, 1963, 1977; Carlson, 1978) and in clinical practice (Thompson, 1971). Although working completely independently of one another, Thompson and Studitsky devised similar grafting ...

Muscle Biology and Physical Therapy

Physical Therapy, 1982
A historical review of treatment strategies used by physical therapists reveals that initially therapists emphasized corrective exercise1, 2 and reeducation of muscles for the return of function.3 Muscle was equally emphasized in treating a variety of patients, for example, those with war injuries, polio, posture problems, and CNS lesions. The pioneers
