Axial muscle‐fibre orientations in larval zebrafish
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 517-533, April 2025.In 4 days post‐fertilization zebrafish larvae, the fast axial muscle fibres follow helical trajectories that taper towards the tail. Adjacent muscle fibres form substantial angles relative to each other to accommodate this pattern. Using a novel semi‐automatic method, we quantified 3D fibre angles over the whole muscle volume.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Black‐tailed prairie dogs are highly social ground squirrels that excavate communal burrow systems, most often in medium‐textured soils. Their forelimbs demonstrate morphofunctional trade‐offs for scratch‐digging and terrestrial ecology, including well‐developed and fast‐contracting proximal musculature with large mechanical advantage paired with ...

The Effects Of Increased Stimulation On Sarcomere Number
, 2016 Tabary et al. (1981) accelerated serial sarcomere loss by applying electrical stimulation, resulting in a 25% decrease in sarcomere number (SN) in the guinea pig soleus muscle within 12 hours.

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aim The objective of this study was to investigate the global profile of plasmatic proteins of individuals affected simultaneously or not by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM, well/poorly‐controlled), Dyslipidemia (DL), and Periodontitis (P). Methods Besides periodontal examination, plasma was collected for glycemic, and lipid analyses from 150 ...

Force-sarcomere length relation.
, 2014 Mean relative force-sarcomere length relationships obtained from GAS Tg(TPM3)Met9Arg (○) and WT (•) muscle fibers. Both curves overlap and display a characteristic force plateau followed by a comparable descending limb. Values are presented as the mean ±

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

Direct Sarcomere Modulators Are Promising New Treatments for Cardiomyopathies
, 2019 Mutations in sarcomere genes can cause both hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, the complex genotype-phenotype relationships in pathophysiology of cardiomyopathies by gene or mutation location are not fully ...

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.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life‐saving intervention applied to critically ill patients. A common consequence of MV is ventilator‐induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD), which is characterized by significant diaphragm atrophy and reduced contractile function. Older patients who receive MV are more likely to develop VIDD, have worse recovery,
