Journal ArticleDOI
Atrogin-1, MuRF-1, and sarcopenia.
TL;DR: This review discusses aging-related changes to skeletal muscle structure and function; the regulation of protein synthesis and protein degradation by IGF-1, TGF-β, and myostatin; and the potential for modulating atrogin-1 and MuRF-1 expression to treat or prevent sarcopenia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intrinsic stiffness of extracellular matrix increases with age in skeletal muscles of mice.
Lauren K. Wood,Erdan Kayupov,Jonathan P. Gumucio,Christopher L. Mendias,Dennis R. Claflin,Susan V. Brooks +5 more
TL;DR: Findings indicate that theECM of tibialis anterior muscles from old mice has a higher modulus than the ECM of adult muscles, likely driven by an accumulation of densely packed extensively crosslinked collagen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transforming growth factor-beta induces skeletal muscle atrophy and fibrosis through the induction of atrogin-1 and scleraxis.
Christopher L. Mendias,Jonathan P. Gumucio,Max E. Davis,Caleb W. Bromley,Carol S. Davis,Susan V. Brooks +5 more
TL;DR: TGF‐β decreased muscle fiber size and dramatically reduced maximum isometric force production and induced scleraxis expression in muscle fibroblasts, and increased procollagen Iα2 and atrogin‐1 levels in muscles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological Loading of Tendons Induces Scleraxis Expression in Epitenon Fibroblasts
Christopher L. Mendias,Jonathan P. Gumucio,Konstantin I. Bakhurin,Evan B. Lynch,Susan V. Brooks +4 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that in addition to regulating the embryonic formation of limb tendons, scleraxis also appears to play an important role in the adaptation of adult tendons to physiological loading.
Journal ArticleDOI
TGF-β superfamily signaling in muscle and tendon adaptation to resistance exercise.
TL;DR: A novel framework for TGF-&bgr; and myostatin signaling in controlling the coordinated adaptation of both skeletal muscle and tendon tissue to resistance training is provided.
