Paraspinal muscle fibres demonstrate a complex relationship between contractile variability and function in canines with spinal degeneration [PDF]
Paraspinal muscle dysfunction is associated with spinal degeneration, yet our understanding of the specifics of this muscle dysfunction is incomplete.

Absence of the Z-disc protein α-actinin-3 impairs the mechanical stability of Actn3KO mouse fast-twitch muscle fibres without altering their contractile properties or twitch kinetics [PDF]
Background A common polymorphism (R577X) in the ACTN3 gene results in the complete absence of the Z-disc protein α-actinin-3 from fast-twitch muscle fibres in ~ 16% of the world’s population.

Chronic and acute mediators of passive viscoelasticity in human skeletal muscle fibres [PDF]
The cellular viscoelastic modulus in skeletal muscle tissue responds dynamically to chronic stressors, such as age and exercise. Passive tissue mechanics can also be sensitive to acute stimuli, such as mechanical loading and/or activation‐induced muscle ...

The Effect of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Experimentally-Induced Gastrocnemius Muscle Injury in Female Albino Rats [PDF]
Objective: Skeletal muscle injury has become an important condition to treat. With traumas increasing and poor health outcome it has become important to find a suitable treatment to enhance the regeneration of this tissue.

Microstructural analysis of frozen and salted fish and seafood meat
To evaluate the quality and safety of fish and seafood meat, along with generally accepted methods, new histological research methods are used, which allow establishing microscopic changes in fresh, spoiled, and canned foods. The purpose of this study is

A neuro-mechanical model of a single leg joint highlighting the basic physiological role of fast and slow muscle fibres of an insect muscle system. [PDF]
In legged animals, the muscle system has a dual function: to produce forces and torques necessary to move the limbs in a systematic way, and to maintain the body in a static position.
