Regulation of skeletal muscle plasticity by the transcriptional coregulators PGC-1α and NCoR1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Skeletal muscle plasticity is regulated by a wide range of factors, among which environmental stimuli such as exercise play a central role. Importantly, changes in skeletal muscle phenotype exert a direct impact on health and risk to premature death.

Postpolio muscular dysfunction : relationships between muscle energy metabolism, subjective symptoms, magnetic resonance imaging, electromyography, and muscle strength

open access: yes, 1997
Eleven patients with previous polio were studied. The concentration of energy-related metabolites and energy charge was measured from the vastus lateralis muscle, as was isometric muscle strength of knee extension.

Regulation of skeletal muscle cell plasticity by the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1alpha [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Exercise triggers a pleiotropic response in skeletal muscle, which results in a profound remodeling of this tissue. Physical activity-dependent muscle fiber plasticity is regulated by a number of distinct signaling pathways.
