The Role of Mitochondria in Mediation of Skeletal Muscle Repair

Muscles, 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 ...

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

Muscles, 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

An autopsy study of a familial oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) with distal spread and neurogenic involvement [PDF]

, 1981
An 81-year-old man from a family with a history of oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) involving 6 members over 4 generations is described. The patient first noted drooping of his eyelids at the age of 65.

Muscle Function and Fatigability of Trunk Flexors in Males and Females [PDF]

, 2017
Background Optimal function of the abdominal muscles is necessary for several life functions including lifting and carrying tasks. Sex differences in strength and fatigability are established for many limb muscles and back extensor muscles, but it is ...

The Energy Benefits of the Pantograph Wing Mechanism in Flapping Flight: Case Study of a Gull [PDF]

, 2015
Bird wings generally contain a 4-bar pantograph mechanism in the forearm that enables the wrist joint to be actuated from the elbow joint thus reducing the number of wing muscles and hence reducing the wing inertia and inertial drag.

On the Behavior of the Respiratory Muscles During Vomiting [PDF]

, 1957
In order to produce vomiting in the dogs decerebrated and unanesthetized, apomorphine or copper sulfate was administered. The behaviors of both the inspiratory and the expiratory muscles were studied through the course of the act of vomiting by the ...

Muscle Contraction [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2018
Muscle cells are designed to generate force and movement. There are three types of mammalian muscles-skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and move them relative to each other. Cardiac muscle comprises the heart, which pumps blood through the vasculature.

Musculoskeletal modelling of an ostrich (Struthio camelus) pelvic limb: influence of limb orientation on muscular capacity during locomotion [PDF]

, 2015
We developed a three-dimensional, biomechanical computer model of the 36 major pelvic limb muscle groups in an ostrich (Struthio camelus) to investigate muscle function in this, the largest of extant birds and model organism for many studies of locomotor
