The agrin gene codes for a family of basal lamina proteins that differ in function and distribution [PDF]
We isolated two cDNAs that encode isoforms of agrin, the basal lamina protein that mediates the motor neuron-induced aggregation of acetylcholine receptors on muscle fibers at the neuromuscular junction.

The secretome of skeletal muscle cells: A systematic review
Background: Proteomic studies of the secretome of skeletal muscle cells can help us understand the processes that govern the synthesis, systemic interactions and organization of skeletal muscle and identify proteins that are involved in muscular ...

Protein changes associated with embryonic stem cell differentiation to vascular smooth muscle cells [PDF]
PhDEmbryonic stem (ES) cells can differentiate into many different cell lines, including vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs). The aim of this project is to characterize protein changes during this differentiation process.

Effects of Supplement-Timing and Resistance Exercise on Skeletal Muscle Hypertrophy [PDF]
PURPOSE: Some studies report greater muscle hypertrophy during resistance exercise (RE) training from supplement-timing (i.e., the strategic consumption of protein and carbohydrate before and/or after each workout).

Cell signaling is determined partially by the localization and abundance of proteins. Dystroglycan and integrin are both transmembrane receptors that connect the cytoskeleton inside muscle cells to the extracellular matrix outside muscle cells ...

Dynamics and epigenetic control of PcG proteins during skeletal muscle cell differentiation [PDF]
During skeletal muscle differentiation, signal dependent switches in cell differentiation programs require global rearrangements in repression and activation of lineage specific genes, hence the importance of unravelling epigenetic mechanisms that ...

Fibronectin matrix polymerization regulates smooth muscle cell phenotype through a Rac1 dependent mechanism. [PDF]
Smooth muscle cells are maintained in a differentiated state in the vessel wall, but can be modulated to a synthetic phenotype following injury. Smooth muscle phenotypic modulation is thought to play an important role in the pathology of vascular ...

Muscle proteins, usually in the form of meat and meat products, form an important part of many diets. Muscle is a highly structured tissue, derived mostly from the structures of its component proteins. Muscle proteins can be divided into three classes: the myofibrillar proteins (50% to 60%), including the contractile proteins (actin and myosin) that ...

Molecular brakes regulating mTORC1 activation in skeletal muscle following synergist ablation [PDF]
The goal of the current work was to profile positive (mTORC1 activation, autocrine/paracrine growth factors) and negative [AMPK, unfolded protein response (UPR)] pathways that might regulate overload-induced mTORC1 activation with the hypothesis that a ...

Background The formation of contractile myofibrils requires the stepwise onset of expression of muscle specific proteins. It is likely that elucidation of the expression patterns of muscle-specific sarcomeric proteins is important to understand muscle ...
