Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Optogenetic methods to stimulate gamma motor neuron axons ex vivo

Experimental Physiology
It is challenging to stimulate gamma motor neurons, which are important regulators of muscle spindle afferent function, without also recruiting alpha motor neurons.

Growth dynamics, skeletochronology, and histovariability of the theropod dinosaur Berthasaura leopoldinae

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Osteohistological sampling on different bones of theropod dinosaur documents discrepant age record, growth, and metabolism. This could result unprecise paleobiological inferences if samplings are based on single bones. However, multi‐bone sampling can attenuate these discrepancies, helping to infer growth dynamics and physiology of these extinct ...

Ursolic Acid Alleviates Orchitis via Modulating Ferroptosis in Peritubular Myoid Cells of Testis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Ursolic acid modulates key ferroptosis‐related pathways in the peritubular myoid cells of the testis in forest musk deer. ABSTRACT Chronic stress adversely affects reproductive health, increasing susceptibility to pathologies such as orchitis. Additionally, the maintenance of iron homeostasis is essential for preserving the function of the testicles ...

Knee movements cause changes in the firing behaviour of muscle spindles located within the mono‐articular ankle extensor soleus in the rat

Experimental Physiology
We recently showed that within an intact muscle compartment, changing the length of one muscle affects the firing behaviour of muscle spindles located within a neighbouring muscle.

Enhancing Meat Quality Through Dietary Fiber: Insights Into the Gut Microbiota‐Derived Short‐Chain Fatty Acids‐Muscle Axis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of

Muscle Spindle and Comparison of Fish Muscle Spindle with Other Vertebrates

Alınteri Zirai Bilimler Dergisi, 2017
Bu calismanin amaci bugune kadar kas igleri uzerine yapilan calismalari bir araya getirmek ve baliklar ile diger omurgalilarin kas iglerini karsilastirmaktir. Kas igleri kas uzunlugunun oran ve yogunlugunu belirleyen iskelet kaslarinin germe reseptorleridir.

Applications of bio-feedback to muscle models

, 2011
An EMG-driven musculoskeletal model is implemented to estimate subject-specific musculoskeletal parameters such as the optimal physiological muscle length, the tendon slack length and the maximum isometric muscle force of flexor and extensor muscle ...

Cerebellar ataxia and muscle spindle sensitivity

, 1993
1. The cerebellum has long been known to participate in movement control. One of the enduring theories of cerebellar function is that it "tunes" and coordinates sensorimotor traffic in other parts of the CNS. In particular, it has been implicated in the
