The occipital lateral plate mesoderm is a novel source for vertebrate neck musculature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In vertebrates, body musculature originates from somites, whereas head muscles originate from the cranial mesoderm. Neck muscles are located in the transition between these regions.

Muscle versus Snail: Muscle wins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2016
Epithelial–mesenchymal transitions (EMTs) are often governed by the transcription factor Snail and entail the loss of apical junctions from epithelial cells. In this issue, Weng and Wieschaus (2016. J Cell Biol. http://dx.doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201508056) report that actomyosin contractility can strengthen junctions to override Snail-dependent junctional ...

The systemic bone protective effects of Gushukang granules in ovariectomized mice by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis and stimulating osteoblastogenesis

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2018
Primary osteoporosis (POP), which is caused by unbalanced bone remodeling, leads to significant economic and societal burdens globally. Gushukang (GSK) granule serves as one commonly used prescription for POP in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

Skeletal Muscle Ultrasonography and Muscle Fitness Relationships: Effects of Scanning Plane and Echogenicity Correction

open access: yesMuscles, 2023
This study examines the relationships between ultrasonography measurements of skeletal muscle size and echo intensity (EI) with muscle strength and local muscle endurance in a habitually resistance-trained population.

Analysis of Muscle Strength and Electromyographic Activity during Different Deadlift Positions

open access: yesMuscles, 2023
The aim of the study was to analyze muscle activation in the three positions of the deadlift (DL). Twenty male participants (33.4 ± 3.9 years; 42.2 ± 9.1 months of experience with DL; 91.0 ± 14.8 kg; and 1.78 ± 0.06 m) pulled a bar through isometric ...

Information decomposition of multichannel EMG to map functional interactions in the distributed motor system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The central nervous system needs to coordinate multiple muscles during postural control. Functional coordination is established through the neural circuitry that interconnects different muscles.

The Role of Mitochondria in Mediation of Skeletal Muscle Repair

open access: yesMuscles, 2023
Musculoskeletal health is directly linked to independence and longevity, but disease and aging impairs muscle mass and health. Complete repair after a pathological or physiological muscle injury is critical for maintaining muscle function, yet muscle ...

In Vivo Time- Resolved Microtomography Reveals the Mechanics of the Blowfly Flight Motor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dipteran flies are amongst the smallest and most agile of flying animals. Their wings are driven indirectly by large power muscles, which cause cyclical deformations of the thorax that are amplified through the intricate wing hinge.

MSM Supplementation Is Associated with Reduced Inflammation and Improved Innate Immune Response following In Vitro LPS-Stimulation in Humans after a Bout of Downhill Running

open access: yesMuscles, 2023
Exercise-induced muscle injury and the subsequent release of Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMP) result in soreness and inflammation. Dietary supplements may accelerate the rate of recovery by supporting resolution of inflammation. The purpose of
