Mammalian skeletal muscle comprises different fiber types, whose identity is first established
during embryonic development by intrinsic myogenic control mechanisms and is later …

Skeletal muscle is an extremely heterogeneous tissue composed of a variety of fast and
slow fiber types and subtypes. Moreover, muscle fibers are versatile entities capable of …

The popularity of resistance training has grown immensely over the past 25 years, with
extensive research demonstrating that not only is resistance training an effective method to …

Myofibrillar proteins exist as multiple isoforms that derive from multigene (isogene) families.
Additional isoforms, including products of tropomyosin, myosin light chain 1 fast, troponin T …

Contractile and energetic properties of human skeletal muscle have been studied for many
years in vivo in the body. It has been, however, difficult to identify the specific role of muscle …

Mammalian skeletal muscles are composed of a variety of highly specialized fibers whose
selective recruitment allows muscles to fulfill their diverse functional tasks. In addition …

abstract Mammalian skeletal muscle is an extremely heterogeneous tissue, composed of a
large variety of fiber types. These fibers, however, are not fixed units but represent highly …

Skeletal muscle is a complex, versatile tissue composed of a large variety of functionally
diverse fiber types. The overall properties of a muscle largely result from a combination of …

Chemomechanical transduction was studied in single fibers isolated from human skeletal
muscle containing different myosin isoforms. Permeabilized fibers were activated by laser …

Skeletal muscle fatigue is defined as the fall of force or power in response to contractile
activity. Both the mechanisms of fatigue and the modes used to elicit it vary tremendously …
