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

A silver impregnation method for motor and sensory nerves and their endings in formalin-fixed mammalian muscles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
A silver impregnation method is described which shows motor and sensory nerves and their endings in formalin-fixed mammalian muscles. The method works with the same reliability on flattened muscle pieces as well as on frozen sections. Large nerve bundles,
