Alterations to longitudinal muscle morphology and mechanical function following immobilization and recovery in female ovariectomized and intact rats

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Serial sarcomere number (SSN) is reduced following immobilization of a muscle in a shortened position in male rodents thereby impairing muscle contractile function. However, in female rodents the effects of oestrogen on SSN and mechanical changes following immobilization and re‐ambulation are unknown.

Impact of 14 days of head‐down bed rest and an exercise countermeasure on skeletal muscle atrophy, proteome and circulatory cytokines in older adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prolonged bed rest and immobilization have deleterious effects on skeletal muscle mass and function, especially in older adults. These can lead to reduced physical capacity and quality of life. Previous experiments in younger individuals show that exercise can mitigate these effects, but evidence remains scarce and inconclusive in older adults.

Putting the brakes on muscle growth: Myostatin as regulator of disuse atrophy

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue that rapidly adapts to changes in mechanical loading and metabolic activity. Periods of inactivity, including bed rest, limb immobilization or microgravity, induce a pronounced loss of muscle mass and function.

Circulating granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor as a sex‐unbiased global marker of lung and colorectal cancer cachexia pre‐clinical models

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer cachexia, affecting up to 80% of patients with advanced cancer, is characterized by metabolic and inflammatory dysregulation driven by tumour‐ and host‐derived factors. Although cytokines are central to cachexia pathogenesis, their circulating profiles and transcriptional relevance across models and sexes remain incompletely defined. We
