Fiber technology for reliable repair of skeletal muscle

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, 2008
AbstractConventional soft‐tissue reclosure methods—sutures and staples—require substantial organized‐collagen content. Some tissues lack extensive intrinsic collagenous content. Wound disruption consequences range from newly closed abdominal wounds bursting open, to post‐cesarean wombs splitting at delivery, to heart valves loosening.

Abnormal connections between skeletal muscle fibers

Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1969
Abstract In two apparently healthy subjects EMG findings have been made of a type not previously encountered. The jitter between the muscle fiber action potentials from two different muscle fibers belonging to the same motor unit was only 2–3 μsec (S.D.), which is far less than that normally obtained (10–30 μsec).

Myosin types in human skeletal muscle fibers

Histochemistry, 1980
By combining enzyme histochemistry for fiber typing with immunohistochemistry for slow and fast myosin a correlation between fiber type and myosin type was sought in human skeletal muscle. Fiber typing was done by staining for myofibrillar ATPases after preincubation at discriminating pH values.

Influence of exercise on the fiber composition of skeletal muscle

Histochemistry, 1984
Biopsy samples from the vastus lateralis muscle (VLM) of man were examined for fiber composition at rest and at selected intervals during prolonged exercise ranging in intensity from 40% to 75% of the total body maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) and one-min bouts of exercise at 150% VO2max. Because of the heterogeneity of fibers in human VLM, studies were

Branched skeletal muscle fibers not associated with dysfunction

Muscle & Nerve, 1982
AbstractWe report the occurrence of large clefts and branches in some amphibian vertebrate skeletal muscle fibers. Such fibers can be isolated intact from various skeletal muscles of fully mature animals and apparently are normal in other respects. Electron micrographs showed no signs of degeneration in most fibers.

Initiation of differentiation into skeletal muscle fiber types

Muscle & Nerve, 1985
AbstractA monoclonal antibody directed against a slow isoform of a 100‐K myofibrillar protein has been used to study the differentiation of muscle fibers in the fast and slow muscles of the rat. Immunohistochemical studies have shown that initiation of differentiation into fast and slow muscle fibers occurs very early during development.

Dynamic shape of tapered skeletal muscle fibers

Journal of Morphology, 1991
AbstractThe muscle fibers of the feline biceps femoris have tapered ends, across which tension is transmitted to the endomysium. The angle of taper of 11 ends, measured on scanning electron micrographs, varied between 0.16° and 1.18°. The muscle fibers are highly variable in cross‐sectional shape.

Ultrastructural differentiation of skeletal muscle fibers and their diversity

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1976
The ultrastructural changes occurring during postnatal differentiation of the plantaris and soleus muscles were investigated in kittens. Neonatal muscle fibers vary somewhat according to maturity as well as Z-line width and relative volume of sarcoplasmic reticulum (variables most characteristic of a given fiber type).
