Skeletal muscle possesses a remarkable ability to adapt to various physiologic conditions.
AMPK is a sensor of intracellular energy status that maintains energy stores by fine-tuning …

Many pathological states characterized by muscle atrophy (eg, sepsis, cachexia, starvation,
metabolic acidosis and severe insulinopenia) are associated with an increase in circulating …

The molecular mechanisms underlying the response to exercise and inactivity are not fully
understood. We propose an innovative approach to profile the skeletal muscle transcriptome …

Liquid crystal monomers (LCMs) are a large family of artificial ingredients that have been
widely used in global liquid crystal display (LCD) industries. As a major constituent in LCDs …

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 …

Circadian oscillation of body temperature is a basic, evolutionarily conserved feature of
mammalian biology. In addition, homeostatic pathways allow organisms to protect their core …

The importance of β-adrenergic signaling in the heart has been well documented, but it is
only more recently that we have begun to understand the importance of this signaling …

Numerous members of the nuclear hormone receptor (NR) superfamily have been
demonstrated to regulate metabolic function in a cell-and tissue-specific manner. This …

Members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily, including the peroxisome proliferator–
activated receptor and the liver X receptor subfamilies, orchestrate transcriptional networks …

Among organ systems, skeletal muscle is perhaps the most structurally specialized. The
remarkable subcellular architecture of this tissue allows it to empower movement with …
