SKELETAL muscleMUSCLE growthMICRORNACELL differentiationNON-coding RNAMyocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C) is a transcription factor that regulates heart and skeletal muscle differentiation and growth. Several protein-encoding genes were identified as targets of this factor; however, little is known about...
as three bicistronic clusters. MiR-1 and miR-133a are expressed in both cardiac and skeletal muscles, while miR-206 and miR-133b are skeletal muscle-specific. A few years ago, it was reported that MEF2s directly regulate the expression of myomiRs through binding to a muscle-specific enhance...
This method could exclude the muscles and ligaments from an interference movement, and could be a true reflection of the physiological movement of the DTS in 3D space. According to our study results, the activation and ROM of the DTS are not only influenced by the ROM of ankle joint, but ...
1. Skeletal muscles move skeletal bones with the help of fibrous connective tissue called _. 2. When muscles move the bone, they can only _ the bone; they cannot _ the bone. 3. Muscles work together in _ to move a bone. Marfan syndrome is a...
Biomechanics is the study of the mechanics of a living body where forces are exerted by muscles due to the gravitational forces on the skeletal structure of a living body.The biomechanics of foot is complicated and by all standards our feet can be considered an engineering marvel. The foot is...
Interestingly, emerging evidences indicate that combination of moderate-intensity endurance and resistance exercise reduced protein carbonyls and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) levels in skeletal muscles of mice bearing colon 26 tumor [50]. These exercise-dependent redox changes are ...
Betz cells of ___ will activate lower motor neurons in the ___ that innervate voluntary skeletal muscles. (a) Brainstem; ventral horn of the spinal cord (b) brainstem; caudate-putamen (c) Cerebral peduncles; internal capsule (d) Primary motor cortWhich ...
human beings have fallen ill with polio and recovered with no ill effects. Mark was part of the small minority--less than 4%--in whom the virus penetrates the inner core of the spinal cord and brain stem, where motor impulses arise and are transmitted to the muscles. Inside this slender...
In this paper, we explore using Generalised Procrustes Analysis to study the fascicle shapes that we have collected in medial gastrocnemius muscles from 6 healthy adults by using DTI technology. This is an innovated attempt of using Procrustes analysis to find the trend of the changes of fascicle...
