Effects of sarcolipin deletion on skeletal muscle adaptive responses to functional overload and unload
8 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
Overexpression of sarcolipin (SLN), a regulator of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPases (SERCAs), stimulates calcineurin signaling to enhance skeletal muscle oxidative capacity. Some studies have shown that calcineurin may also control skeletal muscle mass and remodeling in response to functional overload and unload stimuli by increasing myofiber size and the proportion of slow fibers. To examine whether SLN...
