A personal historic perspective on the role of chloride in skeletal and cardiac muscle [PDF]
, 2017 During the early decades of the last century, skeletal muscle was held to be impermeable to chloride ions. This theory, based on shaky grounds, was famously falsified by Boyle and Conway in 1941.

Estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) : a novel target in type 2 diabetes [PDF]
, 2005 Recent studies have shown that reduced mitochondrial content and function in skeletal muscle are common features of type 2 diabetes. Here, we review the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of mitochondrial genes in skeletal muscle, focusing ...

The effects of hibernation on the contractile and biochemical properties of skeletal muscles in the thirteen-lined ground squirrel, Ictidomys tridecemlineatus [PDF]
, 2013 Hibernation is a crucial strategy of winter survival used by many mammals. During hibernation, thirteen-lined ground squirrels, Ictidomys tridecemlineatus, cycle through a series of torpor bouts, each lasting more than a week, during which the animals ...

Exercise, Exerkines, and Sarcopenia [PDF]
Diabetes & Metabolism JournalSarcopenia is a progressive age-related musculoskeletal disorder characterized by loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and physical function. Closely associated with aging and physical inactivity, it significantly compromises mobility, independence ...

Dietary fibre may mitigate sarcopenia risk:Findings from the NU-AGE cohort of older european adults [PDF]
, 2020 Sarcopenia is characterised by a progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and physical function as well as related metabolic disturbances. While fibre-rich diets can influence metabolic health outcomes, the impact on skeletal muscle mass and function is ...
