Abstract excerpt
Adult skeletal muscle retains the capability of transcriptional reprogramming. This attribute is readily observable in the non-weight-bearing (NWB) soleus muscle, which undergoes a slow-to-fast fiber type transition concurrent with decreased beta-myosin heavy chain (betaMyHC) gene expression. Our previous work showed that Sp3 contributes to decreased betaMyHC gene expression under NWB conditions. In this study,...
