Function of mTOR complex 1 and 2 in skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Growth of an organ during development and during adaptation in the adult can be controlled by alterations either in the number or the size of cells. The two mechanisms are fundamentally different and require distinct regulation.

Circadian disruption elicits sex‐specific gut microbiota, endocannabinoidome, and lipid mediator responses

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Circadian disruption via constant light induces sex‐specific remodeling of the microbiome, lipid mediators, and immune responses. Females exhibit broader gut microbiota alterations, reduced jejunal oxylipins, increased hypothalamic N‐acylethanolamines, and a more inflammatory cytokine profile. Muscle responses are sex‐ and fiber type‐dependent: females

Developmental characteristics of skeletal muscle in goose during the embryonic and early post-hatching periods

open access: yesPoultry Science
Geese exhibit relatively low meat production and growth efficiency compared to broilers and ducks, with muscle fiber being key determinant of meat yield. The embryonic stage and early post-hatching period are critical for muscle fiber differentiation and

Impact of TIEG1 Deletion on the Passive Mechanical Properties of Fast and Slow Twitch Skeletal Muscles in Female Mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
As transforming growth factor (TGF)-β inducible early gene-1 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, the effect of TIEG1 gene deletion on the passive mechanical properties of slow and fast twitch muscle fibers was analyzed. Twenty five muscle fibers were

Comparison of Phasic Store‐Operated Calcium Entry in Rat Slow‐ and Fast‐Twitch Muscle Fibers

open access: yesActa Physiologica
ABSTRACTAimThis study investigates the activation and regulation of phasic store‐operated calcium entry (pSOCE) in fast‐ and slow‐twitch skeletal muscle fibers. Specifically, we aimed to enhance the sensitivity of pSOCE detection in slow‐twitch fibers by optimizing ionic conditions and to compare the physiological relevance of pSOCE between fiber types.

Percentages of fast-twitch myosin fibers in facial muscles.

open access: yes, 2014
Results of one-way ANOVA and post-hoc Least Squares Difference testing in the zygomaticus major muscle indicate that chimpanzees had the highest percentage of fast-twitch myosin fibers and humans had the lowest (chimpanzee > macaque > human) at the p ...

Desmin is not ubiquitously expressed in head and neck muscle fibers

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Desmin is not ubiquitously expressed in human head and neck muscle fibers. A subset of fibers showed absent or very weak desmin immunoreactivity, with corresponding reduction or absence of desmin mRNA expression. Abstract Desmin, a major muscle‐specific intermediate filament protein, is widely regarded as a ubiquitous component of mature skeletal ...

Mitophagy in skeletal muscle: Impact of ageing, exercise and disuse

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle plays an important role in whole‐body health, quality of life and regulation of metabolism. The maintenance of a healthy mitochondrial pool is imperative for the preservation of skeletal muscle quality and is mediated through mitochondrial quality control consisting of mitochondrial turnover mediated by a balance between ...

Ether-a-go-go related gene-1a potassium channel abundance varies within specific skeletal muscle fiber type

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Translational Myology, 2019
The ERG1A K+ channel, which is partially responsible for repolarization of the cardiac action potential, has also been reported in skeletal muscle where it modulates ubiquitin proteolysis.

Epigenetic and transcriptomic signatures of human slow‐ and fast‐twitch muscle fibers across the lifespan

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2018
The clinical condition of sarcopenia, a hallmark of aging, is characterized by a loss of muscle mass and function, which is more pronounced in fast‐twitch muscle fibers. Exercise can partially mitigate these effects, but little is known about how aging and exercise may impact the control of muscle gene expression through DNA ...
