The sizes of motoneurons supplying hindlimb muscles in the mouse
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1981Motoneurons supplying identified muscle groups in the mouse spinal cord were labelled by retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase. The size of motoneurons was estimated by measuring perimeter and cross-sectional area at the level of the nucleolus for the following seven major muscle groups: quadriceps femoris, adductors and gracilis, gluteal ...

Differentiation of muscle and the determination of ultimate tissue size [PDF]
Cell and Tissue Research, 1983 The factors that determine ultimate muscle size have been studied using a "model" that involves two strains of mice, which had been especially bred for "largeness" (QL) and for "smallness" (QS). The difference in muscle size was not found to be due to a difference in fibre size, but due to a difference in fibre number.

Muscle fiber types and size in trained and untrained muscles of elite athletes
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1985Tissue samples were obtained from vastus lateralis and deltoid muscles of physical education students (n = 12), Greco-Roman wrestlers (n = 8), flat-water kayakers (n = 9), middle- and long-distance runners (n = 9), and olympic weight and power lifters (n = 7).

Muscle atrophy is a hallmark of cancer cachexia resulting in impaired function and quality of life and cachexia is the immediate cause of death for 20-40% of cancer patients.

Abdominal muscle size and symmetry in normal subjects
Muscle & Nerve, 2006AbstractThis study was undertaken to establish normal reference ranges for abdominal muscle size and symmetry and to examine the effects on these of gender and age. We studied 123 subjects, consisting of 55 men (aged 21–72 years) and 68 women (aged 20–64 years). Real‐time ultrasound imaging of the abdominal muscles was performed.

Size and shape of skeletal muscle M-protein
Journal of Molecular Biology, 1982Abstract M-protein was isolated from chicken pectoralis muscle and shown to be relatively homogeneous by the criterion of high-speed equilibrium ultracentrifugation. A sample of the protein was rotary shadowed with platinum and examined by electron microscopy.

Molecular Size of Hagfish Muscle Lactate Dehydrogenase
Science, 1967In contrast to an earlier report, we find that the primitive vertebrate Eptatretus possesses a muscle lactate dehydrogenase whose molecular size is like that of lactate dehydrogenases from higher vertebrates. The molecular size of lactate dehydrogenase appears to have remained constant during evolution.

Heritability of Muscle Size in Eastern Kingbirds
The Condor, 1990Heritability of the size of a hindlimb muscle, M. flexor cruris lateralis (FCRL), was analyzed in Eastern Kingbirds (Tyrannus tyrannus) to assess the potential of the trait to be influenced by evolutionary processes. Size of the FCRL appears to be highly heritable, although the birds are directionally asymmetrical and this asymmetry suggests that ...

Muscle Fiber Size and Chronic Exposure to Hypoxia
1989Sarcomere length is practically never considered when fiber size and dependent variables are compared between muscles or experimental conditions. Because of the direct dependence of fiber cross-sectional area on muscle shortening, it is imperative to normalize measurements of fiber size, and related variables (e.g.
