Cardiac and skeletal muscle function relies on a continuous energy production via fatty acid metabolism and mitochondrial oxidation of pyruvate, with a fine balance between substrate delivery and utilization. Changes in metabolism are increasingly being im ...
Occlusion of the main arterial route redirects blood flow to the collateral circulation. We previously reported that macrophages genetically modified to express low levels of prolyl hydroxylase domain protein 2 (PHD2) display an arteriogenic phenotype, whi ...
In this study, we present a quantitative approach to construct effective 3D muscle tissues through shape optimization and load impedance matching with electrical and optical stimulation. We have constructed long, thin, fascicle-like skeletal muscle tissue ...
The estrogen-related receptor- (ERR) regulates mitochondrial biogenesis and glucose and fatty acid oxidation during differentiation in skeletal myocytes. However, whether ERR controls metabolic remodeling during skeletal muscle regeneration in vivo is unkn ...

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 ...
Muscle force control of musculoskeletal humanoid systems has been studied for years in the motor control, biomechanics and robotics disciplines. However, the study of "load-distributed" muscle control has seldomly been contemplated. In this paper, we consi ...
Individuals with motor impairments typically walk at much slower speeds than their unimpaired counter- parts, yet their gait data is still evaluated against the relatively faster gait of healthy subjects. Therefore a good understanding of unimpaired gait a ...
Skeletal muscle exhibits a high plasticity and accordingly can quickly adapt to different physiological and pathological stimuli by changing its phenotype largely through diverse epigenetic mechanisms. The nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) has the abi ...
The aim of this paper is to propose a muscle control method for a humanoid musculoskeletal arm that mimics human muscle coordination from an engineering viewpoint. As muscle control is posed as a redundancy problem, the resulting muscle force corresponds t ...

Specialized contractile function and increased mitochondrial number and oxidative capacity are hallmark features of myocyte differentiation. The estrogen-related receptors (ERRs) can regulate mitochondrial biogenesis or mitochondrial enzyme expression in s ...
