Crossroads between peripheral atherosclerosis, western-type diet and skeletal muscle pathophysiology: emphasis on apolipoprotein E deficiency and peripheral arterial disease [PDF]

, 2017
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory process that, in the presence of hyperlipidaemia, promotes the formation of atheromatous plaques in large vessels of the cardiovascular system.

BET bromodomain inhibitors and agonists of the beta-2 adrenergic receptor identified in screens for compounds that inhibit DUX4 expression in FSHD muscle cells

Skeletal Muscle, 2017
Background Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) is a progressive muscle disease caused by mutations that lead to epigenetic derepression and inappropriate transcription of the double homeobox 4 (DUX4) gene in skeletal muscle.

Calsequestrins in skeletal and cardiac muscle from adult Danio rerio [PDF]

, 2015
Calsequestrin (Casq) is a high capacity, low affinity Ca2+-binding protein, critical for Ca2+-buffering in cardiac and skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. All vertebrates have multiple genes encoding for different Casq isoforms.

Bioelectrical impedance vectors analysis (BIVA) in older adults according to level of physical activity and muscle strength: a comparison of classic and specific approaches

Frontiers in Aging
IndroductionBioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) is a widely used method to assess body composition. Traditional BIA models use predictive equations without considering individual characteristics such as age, sex, and activity level.

Diversification of the muscle proteome through alternative splicing

Skeletal 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 ...

Metabolic reprogramming promotes myogenesis during aging [PDF]

, 2019
Sarcopenia is the age-related progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength finally leading to poor physical performance. Impaired myogenesis contributes to the pathogenesis of sarcopenia, while mitochondrial dysfunctions are thought to play a ...

Normal inflammation and regeneration of muscle following injury require osteopontin from both muscle and non-muscle cells

Skeletal Muscle, 2019
Background Osteopontin is secreted by skeletal muscle myoblasts and macrophages, and its expression is upregulated in muscle following injury. Osteopontin is present in many different structural forms, which vary in their expression patterns and effects ...

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 ...
