Gaining more from doing less? The effects of a one-week deload period during supervised resistance training on muscular adaptations [PDF]
PeerJBackground Based on emerging evidence that brief periods of cessation from resistance training (RT) may re-sensitize muscle to anabolic stimuli, we aimed to investigate the effects of a 1-week deload interval at the midpoint of a 9-week RT program on ...

MicroRNA-668-3p inhibits myoblast proliferation and differentiation by targeting Appl1
BMC Genomics, 2023 Background Skeletal muscle is the largest tissue in the body, and it affects motion, metabolism and homeostasis. Skeletal muscle development comprises myoblast proliferation, fusion and differentiation to form myotubes, which subsequently form mature ...

Muscle development: Forming the head and trunk muscles [PDF]
Acta Histochemica, 2008 The morphological events forming the body's musculature are sensitive to genetic and environmental perturbations with high incidence of congenital myopathies, muscular dystrophies and degenerations. Pattern formation generates branching series of states in the genetic regulatory network.

Synchronizing N Release from Organic Residues: Opportunities for Integrated Management of N
The Scientific World Journal, 2001 In intensive cropping systems, mineral nitrogen (N) fertilizers represent the largest component of the N cycle because the indigenous N supply is not adequate. The requirement for mineral fertilizer may be reduced with the use of organic nutrient sources.

The Stat3-Fam3a axis promotes muscle stem cell myogenic lineage progression by inducing mitochondrial respiration. [PDF]
, 2019 Metabolic reprogramming is an active regulator of stem cell fate choices, and successful stem cell differentiation in different compartments requires the induction of oxidative phosphorylation.

A Poglut1 mutation causes a muscular dystrophy with reduced Notch signaling and satellite cell loss [PDF]
, 2016 Skeletal muscle regeneration by muscle satellite cells is a physiological mechanism activated upon muscle damage and regulated by Notch signaling. In a family with autosomal recessive limbgirdle muscular dystrophy, we identified a missense mutation in ...

Exercise intolerance and fatigue in chronic heart failure: is there a role for group III/IV afferent feedback? [PDF]
, 2020 Exercise intolerance and early fatiguability are hallmark symptoms of chronic heart failure. While the malfunction of the heart is certainly the leading cause of chronic heart failure, the patho-physiological mechanisms of exercise intolerance in these ...

MicroRNA-222 regulates muscle alternative splicing through Rbm24 during differentiation of skeletal muscle cells [PDF]
, 2016 A number of microRNAs have been shown to regulate skeletal muscle development and differentiation. MicroRNA-222 is downregulated during myogenic differentiation and its overexpression leads to alteration of muscle differentiation process and specialized ...

Guinea Pig Ciliary Muscle Development [PDF]
Optometry and Vision Science, 2014 The purpose of this study was to develop a method for quantifying guinea pig ciliary muscle volume (CMV) and to determine its relationship to age and ocular biometric measurements.Six albino guinea pigs' eyes were collected at each of five ages (n = 30 eyes).
