Supraspinatus and deltoid muscle fiber composition in rotator cuff tear conditions
JSES International, 2020 Background: Rotator cuff (RC) tears are associated with RC muscle atrophy and changes in composition that are crucial to the prognosis of RC repair. The aim of this study was to characterize muscle fiber composition in the supraspinatus (SS) muscle under

Skeletal muscle and fiber type-specific intramyocellular lipid accumulation in obese mice
Biomolecules & Biomedicine, 2021 In obesity, accumulation of lipid droplets in skeletal muscle fibers and a shift towards fast muscle fiber types can both contribute to insulin resistance.

Influence of muscle fiber type composition on early fat accumulation under high-fat diet challenge. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether differences in muscle fiber types affect early-stage fat accumulation, under high fat diet challenge in mice. METHODS:Twelve healthy male C57BL/6 mice experienced with short-term (6 weeks) diet treatment for the ...

Mangiferin protects against adverse skeletal muscle changes and enhances muscle oxidative capacity in obese rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Obesity-related skeletal muscle changes include muscle atrophy, slow-to-fast fiber-type transformation, and impaired mitochondrial oxidative capacity. These changes relate with increased risk of insulin resistance.

Bio-Protocol, 2017 Muscle function is determined by its structure and fiber type composition. Here we describe a protocol to examine muscle histology and myofiber types using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and immunofluorescence staining, respectively.

Meat and Muscle Biology, 2018 In livestock science and meat science, muscle fiber characteristics have been evaluated based on a cross-sectional area (CSA) of muscle fiber. However, muscle fiber is not planar but cylindrical. Thus, muscle fiber volume and volume-based characteristics

New Insights into Muscle Fiber Types in the Pig [PDF]
Journal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry, 2002 The accurate classification of skeletal muscle fiber types according to myosin heavy chain (MyHC) polymorphism remains a difficult task in the pig. Combined myofibrillar ATPase and metabolic enzyme histochemistry, in situ hybridization, and immunocytochemistry were performed on serial transverse sections of pig longissimus (L) and rhomboideus (R ...
