Skeletal muscle is a subtype of muscle formed of bundles of elongated, cylindrical, multinucleate muscle fibres arranged in a striated pattern. Skeletal muscle is attached to the skeleton by ...

Background: It is well established that prolonged, exhaustive endurance exercise is capable of inducing skeletal muscle damage and temporary impairment of muscle function. Although skeletal muscle has ...

Contrary to prior data, this study shows that neither eosinophils nor STAT6-mediated IL-4/IL-13 signaling contribute ...

Sex differences in susceptibility to muscle damage are also of interest. This overview will briefly examine these questions and summarise the current evidence for oestrogenic influence on skeletal ...

In addition, androgens have anabolic effects, as indicated by its alias, anabolic steroid, and administration of androgens is ...

The current study aimed to better characterize human skeletal muscle-derived adipogenic progenitors obtained from obese volunteers and investigate the impact of derived adipocytes on insulin ...
