Journal ArticleDOI

Coordinated collagen and muscle protein synthesis in human patella tendon and quadriceps muscle after exercise

TL;DR: There is a rapid increase in collagen synthesis after strenuous exercise in human tendon and muscle, and the similar time course of changes of protein synthetic rates in different cell types supports the idea of coordinated musculotendinous adaptation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Creatine supplementation augments the increase in satellite cell and myonuclei number in human skeletal muscle induced by strength training

TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time that creatine supplementation in combination with strength training amplifies the training‐induced increase in satellite cell number and myonuclei concentration in human skeletal muscle fibres, thereby allowing an enhanced muscle fibre growth in response to strength training.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in satellite cells in human skeletal muscle after a single bout of high intensity exercise

TL;DR: It is proposed that satellite cells can be induced to re‐enter the cell growth cycle after a single bout of unaccustomed high intensity exercise, however, a one bout of exercise is not sufficient for the satellite cell to undergo terminal differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extracellular matrix adaptation of tendon and skeletal muscle to exercise

TL;DR: ECM turnover is influenced by physical activity, and both collagen synthesis and metalloprotease activity increase with mechanical loading, which may provide the basis for understanding tissue overloading and injury in both tendons and skeletal muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Short-term strength training and the expression of myostatin and IGF-I isoforms in rat muscle and tendon: differential effects of specific contraction types.

TL;DR: A possible role for IGF-IEa and MGF in adaptation of tendon to training is indicated, and the combined changes in myostatin and IGF- IEa/MGF expression could explain the important effect of eccentric actions for muscle hypertrophy.
