Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Fish skeletal muscles are mainly composed of two distinct types, fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscles, and they play important roles in maintaining movement and energy metabolism.

Differential regulation of MMP activity by TGFβ1 in fast- and slow- twitch muscle repair: insights from EDL and soleus muscle-derived myoblasts [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologyIntroductionSkeletal muscles are characterized by a significant ability to regenerate in response to injury. However, muscle repair is often inefficient and hindered by the development of fibrosis.

The fast-twitch muscle calsequestrin isoform predominates in rabbit slow-twitch soleus muscle [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1989 The major form of calsequestrin in rabbit slow‐twitch soleus muscle is shown to be identical to that isolated and cloned from rabbit fast‐twitch muscle on the following bases: identity of cDNAs cloned from mRNAs from the two muscle sources; equivalent hybridization of a fast‐twitch calsequestrin cDNA probe to mRNAs isolated from fast‐twitch and slow ...

Rabbit cardiac and slow-twitch muscle express the same phospholamban gene [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1988 The nucleotide sequences of cDNAs encoding phospholamban were found to be virtually identical when the cDNA clones were isolated from rabbit slow‐twitch (soleus) and rabbit cardiac muscle libraries. These findings demonstrate that both types of muscle express the same phospholamban gene.

Slow twitch soleus muscle is not protected from sarcopenia in senescent rats
Experimental Gerontology, 2010 Although most literature suggests a relative protection of slow twitch muscle with aging, there is limited data in senescence when muscle atrophy and functional decline markedly accelerate. To address this issue we examined age-related changes in muscle mass, contractile function, mitochondrial enzyme activities, and myosin heavy chain (MHC) expression

Insights into the heterogeneous muscle lipidome of dysferlin-deficient mice: effects of age, muscle type, and sex [PDF]
Skeletal MuscleDysferlinopathy is an age-dependent muscular dystrophy caused by loss of the membrane-associated protein dysferlin. Disease severity increases with age and selectively affects specific muscle groups, yet the molecular basis for this vulnerability remains

Skeletal Fiber Type in Muscle Pain and Dysfunction [PDF]
BiomedicinesDifferent types of skeletal muscle fibers display marked heterogeneity in metabolic, mechanical, and regenerative properties. However, their role in chronic musculoskeletal pain remains insufficiently integrated into clinical models.

Expression profiles and transcript properties of fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscles in a deep-sea highly migratory fish, Pseudocaranx dentex [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscles are the two principal skeletal muscle types in teleost with obvious differences in metabolic and contractile phenotypes. The molecular mechanisms that control and maintain the different muscle types remain unclear yet.
