The presence of accessory soleous muscle in humans
Einstein (São Paulo), 2012 OBJECTIVE: To verify the prevalence of the accessory soleus muscle in humans and according to gender. METHODS: A total of 154 magnetic resonance images of the ankle were assessed in T1 weighted sagittal, coronal and axial planes. RESULTS: An incidence of

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 ...

The nerves to the plantaris muscle and a bipennate part of the soleus muscle
Anatomical Science International, 2012 We performed nerve fiber analysis of the nerve to the plantaris muscle in ten cases. Macroscopically, the nerve to the plantaris muscle has a tendency to branch off from the tibial nerve itself independent of the nerves to the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles (the triceps surae muscle). After removing the epineurium of the tibial nerve, it was revealed

Functional and Structural Adaptations of Skeletal Muscle to Microgravity [PDF]
, 2001 Our purpose is to summarize the major effects of space travel on skeletal muscle with particular emphasis on factors that alter function. The primary deleterious changes are muscle atrophy and the associated decline in peak force and power.

Dihydrotestosterone treatment rescues the decline in protein synthesis as a result of sarcopenia in isolated mouse skeletal muscle fibres [PDF]
, 2016 Background Sarcopenia, the progressive decline in skeletal muscle mass and function with age, is a debilitating condition. It leads to inactivity, falls, and loss of independence.

Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction The effects of Kinesio‐taping (KT) and rigid‐taping (RT) on vertical jump performance have been investigated; however, remain unclear. The study was designed to compare the effects of KT and RT on vertical jump in individuals with pes planus. Methods A total of 74 participants were diagnosed with pes planus. The foot posture index

Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2015 Heat shock protein 25 (Hsp25) phosphorylation plays a protective role following mechanical stress in skeletal muscle fibers. We previously reported that phosphorylation at serine 15 of Hsp25 (p-Ser15) was enhanced during regrowth of muscle fibers in rats

The Corepressor NCoR1 Antagonizes PGC-1α and Estrogen-Related Receptor α in the Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Function and Oxidative Metabolism [PDF]
, 2012 Skeletal muscle exhibits a high plasticity and accordingly can quickly adapt to different physiological and pathological stimuli by changing its phenotype largely through diverse epigenetic mechanisms.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.The marsupial masticatory apparatus has rarely been studied until recently, mainly in Australasian species. We therefore reconstructed the maximum bite forces of the South American Linnaeus's mouse opossum Marmosa murina using in vivo bites, specimen dissections, and 3D static equilibrium of the jaw muscles.

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
