Alterations to longitudinal muscle morphology and mechanical function following immobilization and recovery in female ovariectomized and intact rats

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Serial sarcomere number (SSN) is reduced following immobilization of a muscle in a shortened position in male rodents thereby impairing muscle contractile function. However, in female rodents the effects of oestrogen on SSN and mechanical changes following immobilization and re‐ambulation are unknown.

An exploration of the methods to determine the protein‐specific synthesis and breakdown rates in vivo in humans

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
The present study explores the methods to determine human in vivo protein‐specific myofibrillar and collagenous connective tissue protein fractional synthesis and breakdown rates.

The efficacy and physiological bases of small muscle mass exercise in health and disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The conventional approach to aerobic exercise prescription involves large muscle mass exercise and the manipulation of variables such as training intensity, duration and frequency to promote desired adaptations. However, during whole‐body exercise, central limitations (i.e., neural, pulmonary and/or cardiac) constrain exercise tolerance and ...

Suppression of Myofibrillar Protein Degradation after Refeeding in Young and Adult Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A diet containing adequate amounts of protein rapidly suppresses myofibrillar protein degradation after refeeding in young rats and mice. However, it is unclear whether this suppression is seen in adult animals.

and its myofibrillar protein fraction

open access: yes, 2020
This study was conducted to evaluate the comparative efficacy of actinidin from green and gold kiwifruit extract on in vitro simulated gastrointestinal protein digestion of cooked beef Semitendinosus and its myofibrillar protein fraction.

Bed‐rest and exercise remobilization: Concurrent adaptations in muscle glucose and protein metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle
Background Bed‐rest (BR) of only a few days duration reduces muscle protein synthesis and induces skeletal muscle atrophy and insulin resistance, but the scale and juxtaposition of these events have not been investigated concurrently in the same ...

Putting the brakes on muscle growth: Myostatin as regulator of disuse atrophy

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue that rapidly adapts to changes in mechanical loading and metabolic activity. Periods of inactivity, including bed rest, limb immobilization or microgravity, induce a pronounced loss of muscle mass and function.

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

The mitochondrial‐targeted antioxidant SkQ1 prevents skeletal muscle mitochondrial‐apoptotic but not necroptotic signalling during ovarian cancer

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend An evaluation of the degree to which mitochondrial hydrogen peroxide emission (mH2O2)‐mediated apoptotic and necroptotic signalling contributes to skeletal muscle atrophy in an orthotopic epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) model. To determine whether attenuating mH2O2 could prevent regulated cell death signalling and mitigate muscle
