Fetal development of the human trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles

, 2020
At present, there is no photographic evidence of splitting of the trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles (SCMs), which share a common anlage that extends caudally toward the limb bud in the embryo at a length of 9 mm. Therefore, the aim of the present

Resting Systemic Irisin Concentrations Are Lower in Older versus Younger Males after 12 Weeks of Resistance-Exercise Training While Apelin and IL-15 Concentrations Were Increased in the Whole Cohort

Muscles
Myokines released by exercise are identified as factors that can influence a person’s health and wellbeing. While myokine secretion in response to an acute bout of endurance and resistance-type exercise has been examined, the influence of resistance ...
