Gene expression profiling of skeletal muscle after volumetric muscle loss
1 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
Volumetric muscle loss (VML), usually occurring following traumatic injury, results in a composite loss of muscle mass. These injuries manifest as decreased strength and functional impairments. Clinically, these injuries often heal with fibrosis, as opposed to skeletal muscle regeneration. This study examines the healing patterns of a skeletal muscle following VML in a murine model. Eight-week old male C57BL/6J...
