Myofibril Fragmentation Index as an Immediate Postmortem Predictor of Buffalo Meat Tenderness

, 2015
A study was undertaken to compare and correlate the myofibril fragmentation index (MFI) of fresh buffalo longissimus steaks with Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF) and the subjective measurement of overall tenderness to suggest the suitability of MFI as ...

Juvenile hormone‐mediated accelerated post‐flight recovery of ovarian development in Loxostege sticticalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Flight in female beet webworms (Loxostege sticticalis) promotes an increase in feeding, thereby enhancing abdominal energy reserves. Following flight, the flight muscles undergo accelerated histolysis, and the energy substances undergoing histolysis are redirected to the ovaries. These two processes collectively promote ovarian development.

Effect of Sarcoplasmic Protein Solutions Dried at Different Times and Rates on Water Migration in Lamb Myofibril In Vitro

Foods
To determine whether sarcoplasmic proteins affected water migration in myofibrils during air-drying, with protein denaturation as an indicator of sarcoplasmic protein changes, the extent of sarcoplasmic protein changes in lamb during air-drying was first

Microscopic and molecular aspects of skeletal muscle alterations in cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Cerebral palsy, caused by non‐progressive brain injury, is frequently accompanied by skeletal muscle alterations. This review synthesizes current evidence from muscle biopsy studies, revealing cellular and molecular adaptations in muscle tissue. Abstract Cerebral palsy (CP), the most prevalent childhood‐onset motor disability, frequently entails ...

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

In vitro muscle contraction: A technical review on electrical pulse stimulation in C2C12 cells

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Electrical pulse stimulation (EPS) of skeletal muscle cells is increasingly used to model exercise In vitro. The murine C2C12 myotube system has become a common platform for such studies, yet wide variability in EPS protocols hampers reproducibility and cross‐study comparisons.

EFFECT OF PROTEIN OXIDATION ON PARTICLE SIZE OF MYOFIBRILS [PDF]

, 2016
In order to study the effect of protein oxidation on the structure of myofibrils, extracted myofibrils from porcine longissimus dorsi muscle were incubated with different concentrations of the oxidant NaClO (0, 5, 10, 20 and 40 mM) at 5 ºC for 16 h ...

Mitophagy in skeletal muscle: Impact of ageing, exercise and disuse

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle plays an important role in whole‐body health, quality of life and regulation of metabolism. The maintenance of a healthy mitochondrial pool is imperative for the preservation of skeletal muscle quality and is mediated through mitochondrial quality control consisting of mitochondrial turnover mediated by a balance between ...

Antibodies to myofibril antigens in cosmonauts after spaceflights [PDF]

Serum samples obtained from 15 astronauts before and after spaceflights were studied with the use of the indirect immunofluorescent method. In seven astronauts antibodies to different elements of the human heart muscle appeared after flights.

Functional Characterization of a Drosophila Transgenic Line Expressing a Chimeric Flightin: Implications on Flight Muscle Structure and Mating Behavior [PDF]

, 2015
The asynchronous, indirect flight muscles (IFM) of Drosophila are characterized by their remarkable crystalline myofilament lattice structure that has been proposed to have evolved to power skilled flight for survival, and to produce male courtship song,
