Veterinary Surgery, EarlyView.Abstract Objective To quantify how increasing axial loads combined with different femoral fixation methods impact simulated quadriceps and gastrocnemius muscle forces. Study design Experimental, non‐randomized, ex vivo study. Methods A custom limb press permitting axial loads of 10%–40% bodyweight with three femoral fixation models was tested with 24 ...

Possible role of non-muscle alpha-actinins in muscle cell mechanosensitivity.
PLoS ONE, 2014 UnlabelledThe main hypothesis suggested that changes in the external mechanical load would lead to different deformations of the submembranous cytoskeleton and, as a result, dissociation of different proteins from its structure (induced by increased ...

Recovery from acidosis is a robust trigger for loss of force in murine hypokalemic periodic paralysis. [PDF]
, 2019 Periodic paralysis is an ion channelopathy of skeletal muscle in which recurrent episodes of weakness or paralysis are caused by sustained depolarization of the resting potential and thus reduction of fiber excitability.

Enhancement of K+ conductance improves in vitro the contraction force of skeletal muscle in hypokalemic periodic paralysis [PDF]
, 1990 An abnormal ratio between Na+ and K+ conductances seems to be the cause for the depolarization and paralysis of skeletal muscle in primary hypokalemic periodic paralysis.

Skeletal muscle mitochondrial correlates of critical power and W' in healthy active individuals
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The asymptote (critical power; CP) and curvature constant (W') of the hyperbolic power–duration relationship can predict performance within the severe‐intensity exercise domain. However, the extent to which these parameters relate to skeletal muscle mitochondrial content and respiratory function is not known.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Diabetes mellitus induces a reduction in skeletal muscle mass and strength. Strength training is prescribed as part of treatment since it improves glycemic control and promotes increase of skeletal muscle mass. The mechanisms involved in overload-induced

Slow and Fast Muscle Fibers [PDF]
, 1966 On the basis of the clear-cut differentiation used in fast (twitch) and slow (tonic) muscles of the frog, both the fast E.D.L. and the slow soleus muscle should be considered twitch muscles.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Blood flow restriction (BFR) has been identified as a potential countermeasure to mitigate physiological deconditioning during spaceflight. Guidelines recommend that tourniquet pressure be prescribed relative to limb occlusion pressure (LOP); however, it is unclear whether body tilting or reduced gravity analogues influence LOP.

Baseline muscle mass is a poor predictor of functional overload-induced gain in the mouse model
Frontiers in Physiology, 2016 Genetic background contributes substantially to individual variability in muscle mass. Muscle hypertrophy in response to resistance training can also vary extensively. However, it is less clear if muscle mass at baseline is predictive of the hypertrophic
