Skeletal Muscle Toolbox [PDF]

open access: yesToxicologic Pathology, 2017
Evaluation of skeletal muscle frequently combines morphologic and morphometric techniques. As is the case with many organ systems, skeletal muscle has limited responses to insult or injury. Over the past several years, crucial interactions between skeletal muscle, bone, and the nervous system have been described.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Diversification of the muscle proteome through alternative splicing

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2018
Background Skeletal muscles express a highly specialized proteome that allows the metabolism of energy sources to mediate myofiber contraction. This muscle-specific proteome is partially derived through the muscle-specific transcription of a subset of ...

Implications of skeletal muscle loss for public health nutrition messages:a brief report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Age-related skeletal muscle loss, sarcopenia, cachexia and wider malnutrition (under nutrition) are complex in aetiology with interaction of clinical, social and economic factors.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt) in Lateral Hypothalamus Maintains Skeletal Muscle Functions Through Lactate‐Mediated Calcium Signalling in Male Mice

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle
Background Sarcopenia has become an urgent socioeconomic problem in rapidly aging societies. The pathogenesis of age‐associated sarcopenia is not fully understood and no effective therapeutic strategies have been developed to date.

SMCHD1 regulates a limited set of gene clusters on autosomal chromosomes

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2017
Background Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is in most cases caused by a contraction of the D4Z4 macrosatellite repeat on chromosome 4 (FSHD1) or by mutations in the SMCHD1 or DNMT3B gene (FSHD2).

Estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) : a novel target in type 2 diabetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Potential therapeutic targeting of BKCa channels in glioblastoma treatment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes current insights into the role of BKCa and mitoBKCa channels in glioblastoma biology, their potential classification as oncochannels, and the emerging pharmacological strategies targeting these channels, emphasizing the translational challenges in developing BKCa‐directed therapies for glioblastoma treatment.
