Locomotion and muscle mass measures in a murine model of collagen-induced arthritis [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by chronic poly-arthritis, synovial hyperplasia, erosive synovitis, progressive cartilage and bone destruction accompanied by a loss of body cell mass.

Evaluation of sarcopenia in patients with spondyloarthritis

Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation
Background Sarcopenia, the progressive loss of muscle mass and function, is increasingly recognized in chronic inflammatory diseases. Beyond joint damage, Spondyloarthritis leads to reduced mobility, decreased physical activity, and systemic inflammation,

A comparative proteomics approach to studying skeletal muscle mitochondria from myostatin knockout mice [PDF]

, 2006
Myostatin is a negative regulator of muscle growth. When it is not present or non-functional double-muscling occurs, the primary characteristic of this phenotype being an increase in muscle mass.

Noninvasive Estimation of Myosin Heavy Chain Composition in Human Skeletal Muscle [PDF]

, 2011
Purpose: Information on muscle fiber type composition is of great importance in muscle physiology and athletic performance. Because there are only a few techniques available that noninvasively and accurately provide an estimate of muscle fiber type ...

Upper Limb Muscle–Bone Asymmetries and Bone Adaptation in Elite Youth Tennis Players [PDF]

, 2013
Introduction: The study of tennis players allows the nonracket arm to act as an internal control for the exercising racket arm. In addition, the study of the upper limbs removes the influence of gravitational loading, allowing the examination of the ...

Redox modulation of muscle mass and function

Redox Biology, 2020
Muscle mass and strength are very important for exercise performance. Training-induced musculoskeletal injuries usually require periods of complete immobilization to prevent any muscle contraction of the affected muscle groups. Disuse muscle wasting will likely affect every sport practitioner in his or her lifetime. Even short periods of disuse results

Regulation of Muscle Mass by Follistatin and Activins [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2010
Myostatin is a TGF-β family member that normally acts to limit skeletal muscle mass. Follistatin is a myostatin-binding protein that can inhibit myostatin activity in vitro and promote muscle growth in vivo. Mice homozygous for a mutation in the Fst gene have been shown to die immediately after birth but have a reduced amount of muscle tissue ...

Costamere remodeling with muscle loading and unloading in healthy young men [PDF]

, 2013
Costameres are mechano-sensory sites of focal adhesion in the sarcolemma that provide a structural anchor for myofibrils. Their turnover is regulated by integrin-associated focal adhesion kinase (FAK).

Modifying muscle mass – the endocrine perspective [PDF]

Journal of Endocrinology, 2006
This review describes the major hormonal factors that determine the balance between human skeletal muscle anabolism and catabolism in health and disease, with specific reference to age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia). The molecular mechanisms associated with muscle hypertrophy are described, and the central role of the satellite cell highlighted.
