However, the three-dimensional architecture of longitudinal muscle fibers of the tongue has not been clarified. In the present study, we evaluated the function of the intrinsic muscles of the tongue by studying the three-dimensional architecture of the longitudinal muscle. Muscle bundles of the ...
The study objective was to investigate whether amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) affects the intrinsic tongue muscles differently when the symptoms begin in cranial or lower limb muscles. Muscle fiber area, myosin heavy chain (MyHC) composition and vascularization were analyzed in the anterior and po...
The internal bundle of the styloglossus, with the glossopharyngeus, descended internally to the posterior part to the root. The findings indicate that the intrinsic and extrinsic muscles of the tongue are not independent groups, and their fibers form a three-dimensional latticework. Each muscle ...
Roles of Tongue Intrinsic and Extrinsic Muscles in FeedingZ.J. LIU
The three intrinsic tongue muscles and the SG were active during 35-48% of the chewing cycle. IEMG values of the SL, IL and SG of both sides were significantly greater compared to the other muscles (p<0.05-0.01). Both the SL and the IL showed significantly higher activities in the ...
Tongue exercise programs used to treat dysphagia target age‐related decline in tongue muscle function, but the impact of exercise on the intrinsic tongue muscles is unknown. We hypothesized that exercise would induce muscle fiber hypertrophy and increase the percentage of MyHC IIa fibers in the ...
Intrinsic tongue muscles, especially the transverse and vertical (T&V) muscles, regulate the shape of the tongue. However, little information is available on the nerve distribution pattern in human T&V muscles. Using S100 protein immunohistochemistry for paraffin-embedded histology, we investigated ...
