Scientific Reports, 2022 Newts can regenerate their limbs throughout their life-span. Focusing on muscle, certain species of newts such as Cynops pyrrhogaster dedifferentiate muscle fibers in the limb stump and mobilize them for muscle creation in the regenerating limb, as they ...

Progressive impairment of CaV1.1 function in the skeletal muscle of mice expressing a mutant type 1 Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (G93A) linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder that is typically fatal within 3–5 years of diagnosis. While motoneuron death is the defining characteristic of ALS, the events that underlie its pathology are

Role of physiological ClC-1 Cl- ion channel regulation for the excitability and function of working skeletal muscle. [PDF]
, 2016 Electrical membrane properties of skeletal muscle fibers have been thoroughly studied over the last five to six decades. This has shown that muscle fibers from a wide range of species, including fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, are all ...

European Journal of Translational Myology, 2016 Likewise in rodents, after complete spinal cord injury (SCI) the lower motor neuron (LMN) denervated human muscle fibers lose completely the myofibrillar apparatus and the coil distribution of myonuclei that are relocated in groups (nuclear clumps) in ...

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

The effect of breed and body weight at slaughter on histochemical muscle fiber characteristics and meat quality of longissimus lumborum and semitendinosus lamb muscles [PDF]
Archives Animal Breeding, 2023 The skeletal muscles of mammals are composed of fibers of different morphological, metabolic and functional characteristics. The properties of muscle fibers may be determined genetically as well as by environmental factors such as the age of the animals,

Flux control of cytochrome c oxidase in human skeletal muscle [PDF]
, 2000 In the present work, by titrating cytochrome c oxidase (COX) with the specific inhibitor KCN, the flux control coefficient and the metabolic reserve capacity of COX have been determined in human saponin-permeabilized muscle fibers. In the presence of the

Histochemical demonstration of three types of muscle fibers of the intercostal muscles. A study on oxidative enzymes [PDF]
, 1963 Since the classic work of Ranvier, it is well known that the mammalian striated muscle is composed of two types of muscle fibers, i. e., the red and white muscle fibers.

Persistent muscle fiber regeneration in long term denervation. Past, present, future
European Journal of Translational Myology, 2015 Despite the ravages of long term denervation there is structural and ultrastructural evidence for survival of muscle fibers in mammals, with some fibers surviving at least ten months in rodents and 3-6 years in humans.
