Investigating the correlation of muscle function tests and sarcomere organization in <i>C. elegans</i>

2021-04-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Caenorhabditis elegans has been widely used as a model to study muscle structure and function due to many genes having human homologs. Its body wall muscle is functionally and structurally similar to vertebrate skeletal muscle with conserved molecular pathways contributing to sarcomere structure, and muscle function. However, a systematic investigation of the relationship between muscle force...
