Skeletal muscle

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Developing fluorescence sensor probe to capture activated muscle-specific calpain-3 (CAPN3) in living muscle cells
    Koichi Ojima, Shoji Hata, Fumiko Shinkai-Ouchi, Mika Oe, Susumu Muroya, Hiroyuki Sorimachi, Yasuko Ono
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio048975 doi: 10.1242/bio.048975 Published 4 September 2020

    Summary: Our research is the first report of developing sensor probes to detect activated-CAPN3 in cultured skeletal muscle cells.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    HSP70 drives myoblast fusion during C2C12 myogenic differentiation
    Savant S. Thakur, Kristy Swiderski, Victoria L. Chhen, Janine L. James, Nicki J. Cranna, A. M. Taufiqual Islam, James G. Ryall, Gordon S. Lynch
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio053918 doi: 10.1242/bio.053918 Published 22 July 2020

    Summary: In C2C12 myoblasts, HSP70 overexpression does not alter proliferation or differentiation but enhances fusion to increase myotube size.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Effects of inhibiting mTOR with rapamycin on behavior, development, neuromuscular physiology and cardiac function in larval Drosophila
    Samuel Potter, Jacob Sifers, Emily Yocom, Sandra L. E. Blümich, Rachel Potter, Jeremy Nadolski, Douglas A. Harrison, Robin L. Cooper
    Biology Open 2019 8: bio046508 doi: 10.1242/bio.046508 Published 21 November 2019

    Summary: Inhibiting mTOR by rapamycin delays pupation, reduced body wall contractions and mouth-hook movements while synaptic transmission appeared normal in larval Drosophila.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Functional domains of the FSHD-associated DUX4 protein
    Hiroaki Mitsuhashi, Satoshi Ishimaru, Sachiko Homma, Bryant Yu, Yuki Honma, Mary Lou Beermann, Jeffrey Boone Miller
    Biology Open 2018 7: bio033977 doi: 10.1242/bio.033977 Published 26 April 2018

    Summary: Aberrant expression of DUX4 underlies facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. This study identified functional domains of DUX4 and demonstrated that multiple pathological changes are related to DUX4-mediated transcriptional activation.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Molecular regulation of high muscle mass in developing Blonde d'Aquitaine cattle foetuses
    Isabelle Cassar-Malek, Céline Boby, Brigitte Picard, Antonio Reverter, Nicholas J. Hudson
    Biology Open 2017 6: 1483-1492; doi: 10.1242/bio.024950

    Summary: We explored the molecular basis of high muscle mass in Blonde d’Aquitaine cattle, and found that mRNA encoding slow fibres and mitochondrial proteins were downregulated in this breed.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    The expression of Ldh-c in the skeletal muscle of plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) enhances adaptation to a hypoxic environment
    Zhi F. An, Deng B. Wei, Lian Wei, Yang Wang, Lin N. Wei
    Biology Open 2017 6: 1336-1341; doi: 10.1242/bio.024943

    Summary: The expression of Ldh-c in the skeletal muscle of plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) increases anaerobic glycolysis, resulting in enhanced sprint-running capacity and adaptation to a hypoxic environment.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Training differentially regulates elastin level and proteolysis in skeletal and heart muscles and aorta in healthy rats
    Anna Gilbert, Aleksandra Wyczalkowska-Tomasik, Malgorzata Zendzian-Piotrowska, Bozena Czarkowska-Paczek
    Biology Open 2016 5: 556-562; doi: 10.1242/bio.017459

    Summary: Endurance training increases elastin content in muscles but not in the aorta. The activities of enzymes responsible for ECM remodeling increase only in skeletal muscle. These changes seem to be adaptive.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Increased oxidative metabolism and myoglobin expression in zebrafish muscle during chronic hypoxia
    Richard T. Jaspers, Janwillem Testerink, Bruno Della Gaspera, Christophe Chanoine, Christophe P. Bagowski, Willem J. van der Laarse
    Biology Open 2014 3: 718-727; doi: 10.1242/bio.20149167
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Pbx and Prdm1a transcription factors differentially regulate subsets of the fast skeletal muscle program in zebrafish
    Zizhen Yao, Gist H. Farr, III, Stephen J. Tapscott, Lisa Maves
    Biology Open 2013 2: 546-555; doi: 10.1242/bio.20133921
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Cold acclimation increases mitochondrial oxidative capacity without inducing mitochondrial uncoupling in goldfish white skeletal muscle
    Reinaldo Sousa Dos Santos, Antonio Galina, Wagner Seixas Da-Silva
    Biology Open 2013 2: 82-87; doi: 10.1242/bio.20122295
