Effect of one stretch a week applied to the immobilized soleus muscle on rat muscle fiber morphology
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004 We determined the effect of stretching applied once a week to the soleus muscle immobilized in the shortened position on muscle fiber morphology. Twenty-six male Wistar rats weighing 269 ± 26 g were divided into three groups. Group I, the left soleus was

Physiological Reports, 2020 Aim Muscle contraction stimulates skeletal muscle glucose transport. Since it occurs independently of insulin, it is an important alternative pathway to increase glucose transport in insulin‐resistant states, but the intracellular signaling mechanisms ...

Reinnervation and regeneration of denervated rat soleus muscles [PDF]
Muscle & Nerve, 1997 Muscle atrophy is a serious and sometimes irreversExperiments were approved by the University Committee on Use and Care of Animals. ible consequence of peripheral nerve damage.4 Recently, we found that muscle atrophy is reversible to Four groups of denervated muscles were used in this study.

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.

Nitric oxide regulates skeletal muscle fatigue, fiber type, microtubule organization, and mitochondrial ATP synthesis efficiency through cGMP-dependent mechanisms [PDF]
, 2016 Aim: Skeletal muscle nitric oxide–cyclic guanosine monophosphate (NO-cGMP) pathways are impaired in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy partly because of reduced nNOSμ and soluble guanylate cyclase (GC) activity.

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose The temporal course of spontaneous mechanical activities of musculature (SMAMs) is investigated using a novel multiple‐point diffusion‐weighted stimulated echo imaging sequence (MP‐DW‐STE) with adapted spatial and temporal resolution. For this purpose, different sequence settings and measurement parameters are applied. Methods A single‐

Biomedicines, 2023 We have developed DNA aptamers that can inhibit the toxic effects of advanced glycation end products (AGE-Apts). We herein evaluated the effects of AGE-Apts on muscle mass and strength in senescence-accelerated mouse prone 8 (SAMP8) mice. Eight-month-old

Decrease of MMP-9 activity improves soleus muscle regeneration.
Tissue Engineering. Part A, 2012 The regeneration of skeletal muscles relies on the function of satellite cells that are quiescent myogenic precursors associated with adult skeletal muscle fibers. Upon injury, the satellite cells are activated, divide extensively, and differentiate into

Myonuclear loss in atrophied soleus muscle fibers [PDF]
The Anatomical Record, 1997 A skeletal muscle fiber consists of many successive "territories," each controlled by the nucleus residing in that territory. Because nuclei appear to control a specific amount of territory (nuclear domain), nuclei must be added to accommodate an increase in fiber size.
