Hypothyroidism alters diaphragm muscle development
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1996Sieck, Gary C., Louise E. Wilson, Bruce D. Johnson, and Wen-Zhi Zhan. Hypothyroidism alters diaphragm muscle development. J. Appl. Physiol. 81(5): 1965–1972, 1996.—The impact of hypothyroidism (Hyp) on myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoform expression, maximum specific force (Po), fatigability, and maximum unloaded shortening velocity ( Vo) was determined in

The developmental paths that lead to the formation of skeletal muscles in the head are distinct from those operating in the trunk. Craniofacial muscles are associated with head and neck structures. In the embryo, these structures derive from distinct mesoderm populations. Distinct genetic programs regulate different groups of muscles within the head to

Growth factors controlling muscle development
Domestic Animal Endocrinology, 1999The enlarged muscles of certain breeds of cattle, such as the Belgian Blue, have been shown to result from a marked increase in the number of normal sized muscle fibers. Originally insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) were implicated in this myofiber hyperplasia, as IGFs have been shown to stimulate myoblast proliferation as well as maintain fiber ...

Cadherins in Skeletal Muscle Development
2002One essential step in the complex process of myogenesis is the fusion of mononuclear myoblast cells into polynuclear myotubes. This fusion process is promoted by cadherins, a multigene family of transmembrane cell adhesion glycoproteins that mediate homophilic interactions in a calcium-dependent manner, thus selectively associating cells into specific ...

The striated muscle fibre is a highly specialized structure that forms the basic unit of skeletal muscle in vertebrates. During co-ordinated movement, muscle fibres are required to perform many different functions. They adjust to these functional requirements by further differentiation and specialization.

Trophic Influences on Developing Muscle
1985The purposes of this talk will be to outline several general “rules” that are useful for studying myotrophic factors, and to provide a brief synopsis of the studies being carried out in our lab to determine how specific growth factors regulate skeletal muscle differentiation.

Slow Myosins in Muscle Development
2002Myogenesis has been a system central to investigations on mechanisms of diversification within groups of differentiating cells. Diversity among cell types has been well described in striated muscle tissue at the protein and enzymatic-function levels for decades, but it is only in recent years that some understanding of the molecular mechanisms ...

Origin and Development of Muscle Cramps
Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews, 2013Cramps are sudden, involuntary, painful muscle contractions. Their pathophysiology remains poorly understood. One hypothesis is that cramps result from changes in motor neuron excitability (central origin). Another hypothesis is that they result from spontaneous discharges of the motor nerves (peripheral origin).

Skeletal muscle precursors for the limbs originate from the epithelial layer of the somites, the dermomyotomes. We summarize the steps of limb muscle development from the specification of precursor cells in the dermomyotome, the directed migration of these cells to and within the limb buds to muscle growth and differentiation.

Skeletal muscle development in normal and double‐muscled cattle
The Anatomical Record Part A: Discoveries in Molecular, Cellular, and Evolutionary Biology, 2004AbstractThis study examined the effect of genotype on prenatal muscle development in both normal‐muscled (NM) animals and in double‐muscled (DM) animals harboring a mutation in the gene for myostatin that results in the production of a functionally inactive protein.
