As the muscle continues to work, the creatine phosphate levels begin to decrease. Together, the ATP levels and creatine phosphate levels are called the phosphagen system. The phosphagen system can supply the energy needs of working muscle at a high rate, but only for 8 to 10 seconds. ...
The process is characterized by “myonuclear apoptosis,” where muscle cell nuclei condense and decrease in number without complete cell death [50]. Proteolysis Autophagy (self-consumption), calpain activation, and the ubiquitin–proteasome system are proteolytic mechanisms linked to sarcopenia. Autophagy...

athletes introduce substantial stressors from the cellular level on up to the entire musculoskeletal, neuromuscular and endocrine systems. That stress manifests itself in the stress hormone cortisol, muscle breakdown that can be measured via creatine kinase levels, thyroid and sex hormone variation, cha...
Creatinine is a product of the metabolism of creatine by creatine kinase in muscle cells. Creatinine is normally found at a relatively constant level in the blood, it is filtered by the glomerulus, and it is not reabsorbed/secreted to a ...
These results suggest that reductions in cellular bioenergetic state following traumatic brain injury occur through a posttraumatic decrease in the cells' capacity for oxidative phosphorylation, which itself may be directly related to the intracellular free Mg2+ concentration....
Eccentrics can also decrease stiffness and realign scar tissue. They’re also an excellent tool for overcoming strength deficits or training a new range of motion for a particular movement. Eccentrics can have a muscle “overloading” effect, though. Therefore it’s not ideal to use them ...
It should also be expected that a direct consequence of ATP accumulation and a corresponding decrease in AMP can be a decrease in the phosphorylation level of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Until recently, data on the effect of gravitational unloading on the level of ...
