however, ignored the ~ 5% higher density of the tendons (1120 kg/m3;93), which potentially negatively influenced their muscle mass estimates as well. Partitioning muscle segments into muscle and tendon is not straightforward for extant taxa and particularly difficult for extinct...
and pain after exercise in long COVID patients, we determined whether specific pathological features were present in skeletal muscle before and after the induction of post-exertional malaise. As the biopsy size was variable between participants and time-points, we scored biopsies negative/positive for...
MyoD expression, the size of the satellite cell population or its ability to become activated. However, withHoxa10inactivation, satellite cells resident on fibers cultured ex vivo, were not as good at migration—an essential process in myogenic repair; they also had impaired proliferation without ...
Full size image A second exploration tool, DAVID Functional Annotation tool, identified none of the BioCarta pathways as affected by the list of differentially expressed genes. In contrast, 12 KEGG pathways (p < 0.1; Table 2) were identified and, remarkably, eight of them played a relevant rol...
Full size table Balanced mitophagy flux is a crucial regulator of muscle mass and homeostasis Mitophagy is a cellular housekeeping mechanism to keep under control the mitochondrial network in both physiological conditions and in response to cellular stress. For example, during starvation, the activation...
Full size image Gene transcriptional regulation in skeletal muscle induced by acute resistance exercise Men 4 h post (n = 3). LRpath analysis following an intensity-based Bayesian moderated t-statistic (IBMT, see the Methods section for details) using a paired sample-design indicated that 29 GO...
(*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 ...
Full size image We also used our Hi-C data to explore genome compartmentalization, wherein active (A) and repressed (B) chromatin can be segregated into two compartments24. Notably, we observed striking compartmental switching from ESCs to iPax7 progenitors, altering ~20% of the genome. In co...
