Journal ArticleDOI
Perception of rabbit meat quality and major factors influencing the rabbit carcass and meat quality
TL;DR: Among the several variability factors considered, selection programmes, slaughter age and weight, dietary fat inclusion and source, and ante and post mortem factors were found to have great effect on rabbit carcass and meat quality.

Isoform Diversity of Giant Proteins in Relation to Passive and Active Contractile Properties of Rabbit Skeletal Muscles
Lucas G. Prado,Irina G. Makarenko,Christian Andresen,Martina Krüger,Christiane A. Opitz,Wolfgang A. Linke +5 more
TL;DR: A low correlation exists between the active and passive mechanical properties of skeletal muscle fibers and titin, which contributes substantially to total passive stiffness, but this contribution varies greatly among muscles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Severe neuromuscular denervation of clinically relevant muscles in a mouse model of spinal muscular atrophy
TL;DR: It is suggested that neuromuscular denervation in vulnerable muscles is a widespread pathology in SMA, and can serve as a preparation for elucidating the biological basis of synapse loss, and for evaluating therapeutic efficacy.
