Journal ArticleDOI
Role of the Extracellular Matrix in Loss of Muscle Force With Age and Unloading Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Biochemical Analysis, and Computational Models.
Usha Sinha,Vadim Malis,Jiun-Shyan Chen,Robert Csapo,Ryuta Kinugasa,Marco Narici,Shantanu Sinha +6 more
TL;DR: The focus of this review is the application of advanced MRI to study the effect of aging and disuse related remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) on force transmission in the human musculoskeletal system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in Biceps Femoris Long Head Fascicle Length after 10-d Bed Rest Assessed with Different Ultrasound Methods.
TL;DR: It is shown that four distinct US methods lead to different results in the assessment of BFlh Lf changes after a short-term period of unloading, and the implementation of EFOV technique (or alternatively MLE) to assess L f changes in BFlH during longitudinal studies is warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remodeling the Skeletal Muscle Extracellular Matrix in Older Age-Effects of Acute Exercise Stimuli on Gene Expression.
Matthias Gumpenberger,Barbara Wessner,Alexandra Graf,Marco Narici,Christian Fink,Sepp Braun,Christian Hoser,Anthony J. Blazevich,Robert Csapo +8 more
TL;DR: The expression of ECM-related genes is exercise-specific, with CEBR and PLY triggering either earlier or stronger remodeling than other stimuli, and training studies will test whether execution of such exercises may help counter age-associated muscle fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural Activation During Submaximal Contractions Seems More Reflective of Neuromuscular Ageing than Maximal Voluntary Activation.
TL;DR: The greater age-related concavity of the IT-VT relationship suggests that, during submaximal contractions, OM need to reach a level of activation higher than YM to develop an equivalent relative torque.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal hypertrophic and transcriptional responses to high-load eccentric-concentric vs concentric training in males
Joanne Mallinson,Tariq Taylor,Dumitru Constantin-Teodosiu,Rudolf Billeter-Clark,Despina Constantin,Martino V. Franchi,Marco Narici,Dorothee P. Auer,Paul L. Greenhaff +8 more
TL;DR: Ingenuity Pathway Analysis identified several cellular functions associated with regulation of muscle mass and metabolism as altered by both modalities at 24 h and 7 d, but particularly with ECC + CON, however, mRNA responses waned thereafter, regardless of modality.
