The effect of high-altitude on human skeletal muscle energetics: P-MRS results from the Caudwell Xtreme Everest expedition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Many disease states are associated with regional or systemic hypoxia. The study of healthy individuals exposed to high-altitude hypoxia offers a way to explore hypoxic adaptation without the confounding effects of disease and therapeutic interventions ...

FGFR1 inhibits skeletal muscle atrophy associated with hindlimb suspension

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2007
Background Skeletal muscle atrophy can occur under many different conditions, including prolonged disuse or immobilization, cachexia, cushingoid conditions, secondary to surgery, or with advanced age. The mechanisms by which unloading of muscle is sensed

New insights in the regulation of skeletal muscle PGC-1α by exercise and metabolic diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Skeletal muscle energy metabolism is severely impaired in insulin resistant and type 2 diabetic patients. In particular, deregulated transcription of oxidative metabolism genes has been linked to the development of non-communicable metabolic diseases ...

Long Non-Coding RNA Myoparr Regulates GDF5 Expression in Denervated Mouse Skeletal Muscle

open access: yesNon-Coding RNA, 2019
Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue and decreased skeletal muscle mass (muscle atrophy) results in deteriorated motor function and perturbed body homeostasis.

Age-related loss of skeletal muscle function; impairment of gene expression. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Mechano Growth Factor (MGF) is derived from the insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) but its sequence differs from the systemic IGF-I produced by the liver. MGF is expressed by mechanically overloaded muscle and is involved in tissue repair and adaptation.

The transcriptional coactivator PGC-1α is dispensable for chronic overload-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy and metabolic remodeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Skeletal muscle mass loss and dysfunction have been linked to many diseases. Conversely, resistance exercise, mainly by activating mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), promotes skeletal muscle hypertrophy and exerts several therapeutic ...

Effect of the combination of Lithospermum erythrorhizon and Lonicera japonica on dexamethasone-induced muscle atrophy in mice

open access: yesApplied Biological Chemistry
Skeletal muscle atrophy occurs in several pathological conditions. Among other reasons, high-dose or long-term administration of glucocorticoids increases circulating glucocorticoid levels and causes muscle atrophy.

Hyperphosphatemia Contributes to Skeletal Muscle Atrophy in Mice

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with various pathologic changes, including elevations in serum phosphate levels (hyperphosphatemia), vascular calcification, and skeletal muscle atrophy. Elevated phosphate can damage vascular smooth muscle cells and cause vascular calcification.

Atrophy and programmed cell death of skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Differentiation, 2008
Striated skeletal is subject to nonlethal cycles of atrophy in response to a variety of physiological and pathological stimuli, including: starvation, disuse, denervation and inflammation. These cells can also undergo cell death in response to appropriate developmental signals or specific pathological insults.

Betulinic acid ameliorates cast‐immobilized skeletal muscle atrophy but not denervation‐induced skeletal muscle atrophy

open access: yesJCSM Communications
Background Terpenoids have gained attention as therapeutic agents for skeletal muscle atrophy owing to their various physiological activities. In this study, we screened four terpenoids for their therapeutic potential against muscle atrophy in cultured ...
