Transcriptional pathways associated with skeletal muscle disuse atrophy in humans
5 Sept 2007
Abstract excerpt
Disuse atrophy is a common clinical phenomenon that significantly impacts muscle function and activities of daily living. The purpose of this study was to implement genome-wide expression profiling to identify transcriptional pathways associated with muscle remodeling in a clinical model of disuse. Skeletal muscle biopsies were acquired from the medial gastrocnemius in patients with an ankle fracture and from...
