MiR-208b Regulates the Conversion of Skeletal Muscle Fiber Types by Inhibiting Mettl8 Expression
Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 Skeletal muscle, the main source of animal meat products, contains muscle fiber as a key unit. It is well known that transformation takes place between different types of muscle fibers, however, the conversion mechanism is not clear. In a previous study,

Human and Rodent Skeletal Muscles Express Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptors
Cells, 2020 Abundant evidence reveals that activation of the renin-angiotensin system promotes skeletal muscle atrophy in several conditions including congestive heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and prolonged mechanical ventilation. However, controversy exists

Driving an Oxidative Phenotype Protects Myh4 Null Mice From Myofiber Loss During Postnatal Growth
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Postnatal muscle growth is accompanied by increases in fast fiber type compositions and hypertrophy, raising the possibility that a slow to fast transition may be partially requisite for increases in muscle mass.

Muscle spindles of the rat sternomastoid muscle
European Journal of Translational Myology, 2018 The sternomastoid (SM) muscle in rodents presents a peculiar distribution of fiber types with a steep gradient from the ventral, superficial, white portion to the dorsal, deep, red region, where muscle spindles are restricted. Cross section of the medial
