Adaptable Immunofluorescence Protocol for Muscle Fiber Typing in FFPE Human and Mouse Skeletal Muscle and Intact Mouse Hindlimbs

Current Protocols, Volume 5, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Skeletal muscle fiber type composition affects muscle function, metabolism, and disease vulnerability. In addition, muscle fiber type analysis informs disease diagnosis and underlying pathophysiology. Multiple methodologies can be used to assess muscle fiber type; however, immunofluorescence (IF) for myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms is the ...

Optimized Sensorimotor Activation Enhances the Control of Goal‐Directed Aiming Mediated by Real‐Time Visuomotor Transformations

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 62, Issue 10, November 2025.
Optimized muscle focal vibration (o‐fmv) applied to the shoulder muscles enhances the control of upper limb goal‐directed movements. Using 3D motion analysis, we examined aiming movements supported by different visual–proprioceptive frameworks, depending on whether visual information was available in real time or retrieved from memory.
