Normal muscle structure, growth, development, and regeneration

Abstract: Knowledge about biochemical, structural and physiological aspects, and properties regarding the skeletal muscle has been widely obtained in the last decades. Muscle disorders, mainly represented in neuromuscular clinical practice by acquired and hereditary myopathies, are well-recognized and frequently diagnosed in practice. Most clinical complaints and biochemical characterizations of each myopathy depends on the appropriate knowledge and interpretation of pathological findings and their comparison with norma… Show more

“…These smaller, immature fibers, while capable of signal transduction, contribute less to the contractility of the overall muscle, and by extension, to a lower summation of action potentials forming the basis of the CMAP 28 . Nevertheless, it is noteworthy that all recorded CMAPs were in the millivolt range, resulting in signals that are at least 80 times greater than similar recordings performed with electrodes placed directly on peripheral nerves 6 .…”

“…Several pathologies of skeletal muscle, including severe congenital myopathies such as nemaline myopathy, are characterized by sarcomeric disarray caused by abnormalities in actin regulation (de Rezende Pinto et al, 2015;Romero et al, 2013). Interestingly, unlike the genetic deletion of MRTF/SRF targets, such as LMOD3, loss of MRTFs in skeletal muscle did not cause nemaline myopathy.…”

“…The average speed of protein synthesis from basal fractional muscle, tendon, bone, cartilage, ligament and menisci ranges between 0.02 and 0.13% per hour in vivo in humans [29]. The portion of myofibrillar protein represents up to 85% of muscle fiber volume [30,31].…”
