Effect of a session resistance exercise on mRNA expression of NT-3 and TrkC proteins in soleus muscle of Wistar rats

open access: yesمجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی گرگان, 2015
Background and Objective: Skeletal muscle expresses several neurotrophin and their receptors which providing the basis for neurotrophin signaling within the muscle compartments.

Exercise promotes cognition and hippocampal mitochondrial complex II expression in female rats

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Evidence supports that exercise defends against age‐associated declines in brain health and protects against neurodegenerative disease. To help understand the molecular basis for the neuroprotection, we examined the impact of training on mitochondrial protein expression within the exercise–brain axis.

Muscle wasting in cancer cachexia: Mechanisms and the role of exercise

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer cachexia (CC) is a multifactorial disease marked by a severe and progressive loss of lean muscle mass and characterized further by inflammation and a negative energy/protein balance, ultimately leading to muscle atrophy and loss of muscle tissue.

Sedentary lifestyle induces oxidative stress and atrophy in rat skeletal muscle

open access: yesExperimental Physiology
Abundant evidence indicates that skeletal muscle plays a key role in regulating metabolic homeostasis. Therefore, maintaining healthy skeletal muscles is essential to good health.

Weighted cart pull: A novel outcome measure for sustained motor function in mice

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sarcopenia, the pathological age‐related decline in muscle mass and strength, compromises independence and quality of life in older adults. Currently, no effective treatments are available. To enhance translational research using aged mouse models, we developed and validated the weighted cart pull (WCP) as a novel assessment of sustained motor

Applying lessons from limb muscle disuse and ageing to better understand ventilator‐induced diaphragm dysfunction

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life‐saving intervention applied to critically ill patients. A common consequence of MV is ventilator‐induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD), which is characterized by significant diaphragm atrophy and reduced contractile function. Older patients who receive MV are more likely to develop VIDD, have worse recovery,

Spinal and Supraspinal Motor Control Predictors of Rate of Torque Development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
During explosive movements and potentially injurious situations, the ability to rapidly generate torque is critical. Previous research has suggested that different phases of rate of torque development (RTD) are differentiately controlled.

Diffusion and physical constraints limit oxidative capacity, capillary supply and size of muscle fibres in mice and humans

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been suggested that angiogenesis during skeletal muscle fibre hypertrophy allows escape from the ‘size constraint’, which is the inverse relationship between oxidative capacity and muscle fibre cross‐sectional area (FCSA). It is, however, not known whether there are any limitations to the combinations of FCSA, oxidative capacity and ...
