Synaptic transmission--the process by which signals are transferred from a neuron to its
target--is a fundamental function of neurons. Most neurobiologists look to the synapse to find …

Muscle fibres have different properties with respect to force, contraction speed, endurance,
oxidative/glycolytic capacity etc. Although adult muscle fibres are normally post‐mitotic with …

Each of the myogenic helix-loop-helix transcription factors (MyoD, Myogenin, Myf-5, and
MRF4) is capable of activating muscle-specific gene expression, yet distinct functions have …

Skeletal muscle tissue can be created in vitro by tissue engineering approaches, based on
differentiation of muscle stem cells. Several approaches exist and generally result in three …

Physical training regulates muscle metabolic and contractile properties by altering gene
expression. Electrical activity evoked in muscle fiber membrane during physical activity is …

Innervation is important for normal metabolism in skeletal muscle, including insulin-sensitive
glucose uptake. However, the transcription factors that transduce signals from the …

The purpose of this article is to give a concise review of the current state of the art in tissue
engineering (TE) of skeletal muscle and the opportunities and challenges for future clinical …

The synapse is the ultimate contact between nerve cells and their effector cells through
which information is transferred in the central and peripheral nervous systems. It plays a …

MyoD belongs to a family of helix‐loop‐helix proteins that control myogenic differentiation.
Transfection of various non‐myogenic cell lines with MyoD transforms them into myogenic …
