Smart Armband with Graphene Textile Electrodes for EMG-based Muscle Fatigue Monitoring

We report the successful acquisition of surface electromyography (sEMG) signals from an intelligent armband and its application in localized muscle fatigue monitoring with a costume-designed, small-scale front-end readout circuitry. The correlation coeffic ...

Sustained enhancements in inhibitory control depend primarily on the reinforcement of fronto-basal anatomical connectivity

Bogdan Draganski, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Michaël Mouthon

What are the neurophysiological determinants of sustained supra-normal inhibitory control performance? We addressed this question by coupling multimodal neuroimaging and behavioral investigations of experts in fencing who underwent more than 20,000 h of in ...

Role of MCT1 and CAII in skeletal muscle pH homeostasis, energetics, and function: in vivo insights from MCT1 haploinsufficient mice

Pierre Magistretti, Sylvain Eric Lengacher, Luc Pellerin

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a partial suppression of monocarboxylate transporter (MCT)-1 on skeletalmuscle pH, energetics, and function (MCT1(+/-) mice). Twenty-fourMCT1(+/-) and 13 wild-type (WT) mice were subjected to a re ...

Comparison of Muscle Coordination in Two Patient Specific Shoulder Models

Nathalie Ballanfat

The shoulder provides mobility to the upper limb and is thus necessary for lots of activities. Consequently injuries in the shoulder joint affect the patient in his daily life. The study of shoulder pathologies is however difficult : each patient has his i ...

Nuclear receptor/microRNA circuitry links muscle fiber type to energy metabolism

Johan Auwerx, Hui Xie

The mechanisms involved in the coordinate regulation of the metabolic and structural programs controlling muscle fitness and endurance are unknown. Recently, the nuclear receptor PPAR beta/delta was shown to activate muscle endurance programs in transgenic ...

How well do the muscular synergies extracted via nonnegative matrix factorization explain the variation of torque at shoulder joint?

Kamiar Aminian, Mohamadreza Nassajian Moghadam

The way central nervous system manages the excess degrees of freedom to solve kinetic redundancy of musculoskeletal system remains an open question. In this study, we utilise the concept of synergy formation as a simplifying control strategy to find the mu ...

Opposite effects of statins on mitochondria of cardiac and skeletal muscles: a 'mitohormesis' mechanism involving reactive oxygen species and PGC-1

Johan Auwerx

Aims Statins protect against cardiovascular-related mortality but induce skeletal muscle toxicity. To investigate mechanisms of statins, we tested the hypothesis that statins optimized cardiac mitochondrial function but impaired vulnerable skeletal muscle ...

A new method to measure local oxygen consumption in human skeletal muscle during dynamic exercise using near-infrared spectroscopy

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can readily report on changes in blood volume and oxygenation. However, it has proved more problematic to measure real-time changes in blood flow and oxygen consumption. Here we report the development of a novel method usi ...

Orientational order of the lamellipodial actin network as demonstrated in living motile cells

Jean-Jacques Meister, Sébastien Schaub

Lamellipodia of crawling cells represent both the motor for cell advance and the primary building site for the actin cytoskeleton. The organization of actin in the lamellipodium reflects actin dynamics and is of critical importance for the mechanism of cel ...

Short-Term biomechanical adaptation of the rat carotid to acute hypertension: contribution of smooth muscle

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Jean-Jacques Meister

The biomechanical adaptation of the arterial wall to hypertension has been studied extensively in recent years; however, the exact biomechanical contribution of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) during the adaptation process in conduit vessels is not kn ...
