We examined the expression and function of a gene we previously cloned from its downregulation in a muscle atrophy model. The encoded protein was named myodulin because of sequence homologies with the cartilage-specific chondromodulin-I (ChM-I) protein, its restricted expression in skeletal muscle tissue, and its modulating properties on...

Muscle regeneration with intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) accumulation is modulated by simulated microgravity. 36. Annual Meeting of the International Society for Gravitational Physiology

Muscle regeneration with intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) accumulation is modulated by mechanical constraints. 11. Journée de l'École Doctorale en Sciences du Mouvement Humain « SANTE ET PERFORMANCE»

Sports trauma are able to induce muscle injury with fibrosis and accumulation of intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT), which affect muscle function. This study was designed to investigate whether hypoactivity would influence IMAT accumulation in regenerating mouse skeletal muscle using the glycerol model of muscle regeneration. The animals were...

OBJECTIVE: Obesity and diabetes are characterized by the incapacity to use fat as fuel. We hypothesized that this reduced fat oxidation is secondary to a sedentary lifestyle. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We investigated the effect of a 2-month bed rest on the dietary oleate and palmitate trafficking in lean women (control group, n = 8) and the...
