Effects of alfacalcidol on circulating cytokines and growth factors in rat skeletal muscle [PDF]

, 2011
Supra-physiological levels of vitamin D induce skeletal muscle atrophy, which may be particularly detrimental in already sarcopaenic elderly. Neither the cause nor whether the atrophy is fibre type specific are known.

Mechanically Spatio‐Chimeric Fibrin Assembly Enables Vascular‐Integrated Muscle Reconstruction for Volumetric Muscle Loss Repair

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
SPARC (spatio‐chimeric, plasma‐based, anisotropic, and shear‐responsive construct) that integrates myogenic and vascular microenvironments within a single construct. The dual‐modulus matrix directs aligned myotube formation and endothelial network development, enabling a vascularized muscle implant that seamlessly anastomoses with host tissue and ...

Technical advantage of recombinant collagenase for isolation of muscle stem cells

Regenerative Therapy, 2017
Background: Muscle satellite cells are resident skeletal muscle stem cells responsible for muscle regeneration. Isolation of satellite cells is a critical process for clinical application such as drug screening and cell transplantation.

Self-Renewal of the Adult Skeletal Muscle Satellite Cell [PDF]

Cell Cycle, 2005
The concept of the stem cell has evolved in dynamic systems such as those involved in embryonic development and, in the adult, in tissues such as blood and skin which are continuously renewed. It has proved difficult to establish whether stem cell mechanisms underlie the maintenance of the more stable tissues that form the majority of the adult body ...

All‐Polyimide‐Mediated Liquid Metal Assembly on Aerogels for Breathable and Robust Electronic Skins

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐polyimide‐mediated assembly strategy resolves the fundamental conflict between physiological breathability and electromechanical robustness in wearable electronics. By integrating a polyamic acid‐encapsulated liquid metal ink onto an ultralight polyimide aerogel, imidization‐induced contraction enables low‐temperature conductive activation and ...

Estrogens maintain skeletal muscle and satellite cell functions [PDF]

Journal of Endocrinology, 2016
Estrogens have crucial roles in an extensive range of physiological functions regulating cellular proliferation and differentiation, development, homeostasis, and metabolism. Therefore, prolonged estrogen insufficiency influences various types of tissues expressing estrogen receptors (ERs).

CONSTRUCTIVE TISSUE REMODELING BY EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX BIOSCAFFOLDS WITHIN THE AGING SKELETAL MUSCLE MICROENVIRONMENT [PDF]

, 2013
Adult mammalian skeletal muscle tissue retains inherent regenerative capability in response to injury. This regenerative response is contingent upon an activated progenitor cell population and a temporal transition from pro-inflammatory M1 to ...

The molecular dysregulation of excitation contraction coupling in patients with congenital muscle disorders [PDF]

, 2015
Excitation contraction coupling (ECC) is the process whereby an action potential spreading throughout the muscle membrane activates muscle contraction, by releasing Ca2+ from the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR).

Topography‐Regulated Screening Platform for Myoblast Contact Guidance

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study develops a topography‐regulated screening platform (12 gradients in 96‐topography‐well plate) enabling analysis of skeletal muscle morphogenesis. The topography‐induced cell morphology changed, cell polarization, and myotube differentiation, establishing an evaluative framework for generating pathologically relevant myotube phenotypes to ...
