Type 5 adenylyl cyclase disruption leads to enhanced exercise performance

Johan Auwerx, Laurent Mouchiroud, Richardus Houtkooper, Jie Zhang

The most important physiological mechanism mediating enhanced exercise performance is increased sympathetic, beta adrenergic receptor (beta-AR), and adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity. This is the first report of decreased AC activity mediating increased exerc ...

Tbx6, Mesp-b and ripply1 regulate the onset of skeletal myogenesis in zebrafish

Andrew Charles Oates

During embryonic development, the paraxial mesoderm becomes segmented into somites, within which proliferative muscle progenitors and muscle fibers establish the skeletal musculature. Here, we demonstrate that a gene network previously implicated in somite ...

Mechanical Characterization and Shape Optimization of Fascicle-Like 3D Skeletal Muscle Tissues Contracted with Electrical and Optical Stimuli

Mahmut Selman Sakar

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 ...

Assessing dystrophies and other muscle diseases at the nanometer scale by atomic force microscopy

Giovanni Dietler, Harald Brune, Andrzej Kulik, Nicolas Mermod, Guillaume Witz, Stefania Puttini

Aim: Atomic force microscopy nanoindentation of myofibers was used to assess and quantitatively diagnose muscular dystrophies from human patients. Materials & methods: Myofibers were probed from fresh or frozen muscle biopsies from human dystrophic patient ...

Myogenic potential of canine craniofacial satellite cells

Marco Cassano

The skeletal fibers have different embryological origin; the extraocular and jaw-closer muscles develop from prechordal mesoderm while the limb and trunk muscles from somites. These different origins characterize also the adult muscle stem cells, known as ...

Correlation between muscular and nerve signals responsible for hand grasping in non-human primates

Frédéric Pierre Gérald Michoud

Neuroprosthetic devices that interface with the nervous system to restore functional motor activity offer a viable alternative to nerve regeneration, especially in proximal nerve injuries like brachial plexus injuries where muscle atrophy may set in before ...

Estrogen-related receptor-alpha ( ERR alpha) deficiency in skeletal muscle impairs regeneration in response to injury

Johan Auwerx

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 ...

Is There a Need for Smooth Muscle Cell Transplantation in Urethral Reconstruction?

Peter Frey

Background: Hypospadias and urethral strictures are conditions requiring additional tissue for reconstruction. Due to a limited source of tissue, autologous skin and oral mucosa are frequently used. However, long-term follow-up studies demonstrated signifi ...

Hardware-Software Inexactness in Noise-aware Design of Low-Power Body Sensor Nodes

David Atienza Alonso, Pierre Vandergheynst, Giovanni Ansaloni, Mohamed Mostafa Sabry Aly, Hossein Mamaghanian

Wireless Body Sensor Nodes (WBSNs) are miniaturized and ultra-low-power devices, able to acquire and wirelessly trans- mit biosignals such as electrocardiograms (ECG) for extended periods of times and with little discomfort for subjects [1]. Energy efficie ...

Molecular and cell-based therapies for muscle degenerations: a road under construction

Marco Cassano, Stefania Crippa

Despite the advances achieved in understanding the molecular biology of muscle cells in the past decades, there is still need for effective treatments of muscular degeneration caused by muscular dystrophies and for counteracting the muscle wasting caused b ...
