Human skeletal muscle is a heterogeneous tissue composed of multiple fiber types that
express unique contractile and metabolic properties. While analysis of mixed fiber samples …

Fibre type‐specific analyses are required for broader understanding of muscle physiology,
but such analyses are difficult to conduct due to the extreme time requirements of dissecting …

Many skeletal muscle proteins are present in a cell-specific or fibre-type dependent manner.
Stimuli such as exercise, aging, and disease have been reported to result in fibre-specific …

Background Human skeletal muscle is composed of three major fiber types, referred to as
type 1, 2A, and 2X fibers. This heterogeneous cellular composition complicates the …

The aim of this project was to develop a method to assess fiber type specific protein content
across the continuum of human skeletal muscle fibers. Individual vastus lateralis muscle …

Skeletal muscle myosin heavy chain (MyHC) fiber type composition is a critical determinant
of overall muscle function and health. Various approaches interrogate fiber type at the single …

Skeletal muscle is a highly complex tissue that is studied by scientists from a wide spectrum
of disciplines, including motor control, biomechanics, exercise science, physiology, cell …

Mammalian skeletal muscles are composed of a variety of muscle fibers with specialized
functional properties. Slow fibers are suited for long lasting and low intensity contractile …

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 …

In this study, we present a quadruple immunostaining method for rapid muscle fiber typing of
mice and rats using antibodies specific to the adult myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms …
