These days, it seems like the media is full of folks talking about aging bone loss in women. What they seem to often forget, however, is thatjust as we lose bone mass over time, so we also lose muscle mass— and most often, the two are linked. Let’s look at the spine as an e...
The article discusses the webinar titled "New Directions In Muscle-Bone Interactions" which focuses on the role of myokines in bone formation. Doctor M. W. Hamrick presented the research his group and others have conducted which found that insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), fibroblast ...
Animal models of bone and muscle research have further supported the bone-muscle biochemical connection. This knowledge, in light of the tight developmental and genetic coupling of these tissues, large bivariate GWAS studies that have identified potentially pleiotropic bone-muscle genes, and the ...
Although well known for its role in bone development and mineral homeostasis, there is emerging evidence that vitamin D is capable of functioning as a regu... JD Starkey - 《Journal of Animal Science》 被引量: 19发表: 2014年 Effects of divergent selection for leg weakness on muscle and bone...
61,62 The sex differences in T2DM may be due to sexual dimorphism in the utilization of energy and metabolic substrates in metabolic organs, such as adipose tissue, muscle, and the liver.63,64 It is plausible that these sexual variations in metabolic organs also contribute to the sex-specific...
In the most basic terms, the musculoskeletal system is a system of bony levers operated by muscles. Any connection between different skeletal elements is called a joint. Bones in the skeleton articulate at joints and are connected to one another by means of ligaments and cartilage. Cartilage is...
c. direct connection of skeletal muscle to the periosteum using dystrophin. dThe attachment of a muscle's tendon to the stationary bone is called the attachment of the muscle's other tendon to the movable bone is called a) insertion, action b) insertion, origin ...
This is the lower part of the pterygoid fossa and provides part of the attachment for the medial pterygoid muscle. The inferior surface bears a variable number of foramina for lesser palatine nerves and vessels. Most of the reported anomalies of the palatine are minor in nature and consist of...
Bone remodeling is a lifelong process that gives rise to a mature, dynamic bone structure via a balance between bone formation by osteoblasts and resorption by osteoclasts. These opposite processes allow the accommodation of bones to dynamic mechanical f
21As the close connection between limb regeneration and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) in the salamander was gradually explored,21,22revealing that reinnervation is indispensable for the restoration of lost or damaged tissues, more attention has been given to the role of the PNS in ...
