Abstract excerpt
Denervation (DEN) of rat soleus is associated with a decreased expression of slow type I myosin heavy chain (MHC) and an increased expression of the faster MHC isoforms. The molecular mechanisms behind these shifts remain unclear. We first investigated endogenous transcriptional activity of the type I MHC gene in normal and denervated soleus muscles via pre-mRNA analysis. Our results suggest that the type I MHC...
