The significance of lipoprotein lipase in rat skeletal muscles
Journal of Lipid Research, 1977 Lipoprotein lipase was assayed in extracts of acetone-ether powders of rat skeletal muscles. Enzyme activity in soleus had typical characteristics of lipoprotein lipase in other tissues: inhibition by molar NaCl and protamine sulfate and activation by ...

Angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonists alleviate muscle pathology in the mouse model for laminin-alpha2-deficient congenital muscular dystrophy (MDC1A) [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: Laminin-alpha2-deficient congenital muscular dystrophy (MDC1A) is a severe muscle-wasting disease for which no curative treatment is available.

Skeletal Muscle Fiber Size and Capillarity
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1978 SummaryThe ATPase technique following preincubation in an acid medium (pH 3.8–4.0) was used to visualize capillaries. After preincubation at a pH of 4.5, in combination with the DPNH tetrazolium reductase, it was used to identify fiber types. A positive correlation has been demonstrated between fiber cross sectional area and C:F, indicating that large ...

Tropomyosin 3 (TPM3) function in skeletal muscle and in myopathy
Skeletal Muscle, 2023 The tropomyosin genes (TPM1-4) contribute to the functional diversity of skeletal muscle fibers. Since its discovery in 1988, the TPM3 gene has been recognized as an indispensable regulator of muscle contraction in slow muscle fibers.

Microtubule-mediated GLUT4 trafficking is disrupted in insulin-resistant skeletal muscle
eLife, 2023 Microtubules serve as tracks for long-range intracellular trafficking of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), but the role of this process in skeletal muscle and insulin resistance is unclear.

Calsequestrins in skeletal and cardiac muscle from adult Danio rerio [PDF]
, 2015 Calsequestrin (Casq) is a high capacity, low affinity Ca2+-binding protein, critical for Ca2+-buffering in cardiac and skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. All vertebrates have multiple genes encoding for different Casq isoforms.
