Series-to-parallel transition in the filament lattice of airway smooth muscle. J Appl Physiol 89: 869 - 876, 2000.C.Y. Seow, V.R. Pratusevich, L.E. Ford, Series-to-parallel transition in the filament lattice of airway smooth muscle, J. Appl. Physiol. 89 (3) (2000) 869-876....
Following these exclusions, parallel analysis and scree inspection both produced a clearer two-factor solution, which was further improved by removing two cross-loading items. Finally, we opted to discard eight items which yielded factor loadings of less than < .50 which left 14 items across ...
Briefly, a series of minimizations and equilibrations was performed as described previously93. Then, standard MD simulations were performed on the GPU using the CUDA version of PMEMD for 100 ns with periodic boundary conditions. A time step of 2 fs was used, and the system temperature ...
(*p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; simulated microgravity vs control within the same strain). Full size image Cross-sectional muscle area and volume in response to SM varied by mouse strain Cross-sectional muscle area and volume were analyzed using microCT scans of the lower limbs of the ...
At the micro-scale, the fundamental unit of muscle is the sarcomere (Fig.3). Human muscle fibres are composed of tens of thousands of sarcomeres in series [64,65]. A muscle’s functional ROM is affected by the number of sarcomeres in series, with fewer sarcomeres contributing to a smal...
muscle cells when isolated. This is because muscle fate in these lineages, unlike in the primary lineage, is not autonomously specified by Macho-1 [209,236]. Instead, secondary lineage muscle specification depends on a complex series of cell fate choices, instructed in part by precise cell–...
In this way, increases in skeletal muscle fat stores are often accompanied by a parallel reduction in the β-oxidation of fatty acids and the progressive accumulation of lipid metabolites, such as diacylglycerol and long-chain acyl-CoAs, which impair insulin-stimulated glucose transport [5, 6]....

Sinusoidal walking protocols at a sinusoidal speed between 3 and 6 km min−1at the periods of 2 and 5 min (left panel) and 10 min (right panel). The interpolated 1-s data of pulmonary ventilation (V˙E), the CO2output (V˙CO2), and the muscle activities in the time series at ea...
In conclusion, this proof-of-concept study provides promising feasibility, safety and initial effect data of this new dopamine device-aided therapy, which now need to be confirmed in a large double-blind, parallel-group study. Methods Trial design and oversight This was an investigator-initiated,...
