Autophagy signaling in skeletal muscle of infarcted rats. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Heart failure (HF)-induced skeletal muscle atrophy is often associated to exercise intolerance and poor prognosis. Better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying HF-induced muscle atrophy may contribute to the development of ...

Effect of different sources of dietary protein on muscle hypertrophy in functionally overloaded mice
Dietary protein intake is important for skeletal muscle protein synthesis. In this study, we investigated the differential effect of protein sources on hypertrophy of plantaris muscle induced by surgical ablation of gastrocnemius and soleus muscles.

The effect of chronic constriction injury after a period of endurance training on the expression of TRPC1 and TRPC3 in the plantaris muscle of male Wistar rats [PDF]
Background and aims: Due to the role of TRPC1/3 in muscle atrophy, this study aimed to investigate the effect of Chronic Constriction Injury (CCI) after a period of endurance training on TRPC1/3 gene expression in the plantaris muscle of male Wistar rats.

Muscle-Specific Sensitivity to Voluntary Physical Activity and Detraining
Aerobic physical activity triggers adaptations in skeletal muscle including a fast-to-slow shift in myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms, an enhanced capillary network, and mitochondrial biogenesis to meet increased demands placed upon this tissue. Although

The Effect of Reduced Neuromuscular Activity on Class IIa Histone Deacetylase and Selected Downstream Pathways [PDF]
Introduction: Decreased neuromuscular activity, in terms of different models including hindlimb suspension (HS), can result in muscular atrophy by changing different genes expression.

Variations in Dimensions and Attachments of the Plantaris Muscle
Plantaris is a rudimentary muscle of the calf that is considered an accessory to the gastrocnemius. It has been harvested for use ranging from grafts in hand surgery ( https://www.jhandsurg.org/article/S0363‐5023(07)00773‐3/abstract ) to heart valve repair ( https://www ...

The effect of 2-week, high-intensity running and a 2-week immobilization on muscle fiber type composition of the plantaris muscle from 18 female, 6-month-old Wistar rats (running, n = 6; immobilization, n = 6; sedentary control, n = 6) was bio- and ...

Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) is known to cause an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and elevated intracellular glucose levels. We investigated the metallothionein I and II (MT I+II) antioxidants expression in soleus (mainly slow-twitch) and plantaris ...
