Prolonged mechanical muscle loading increases mechanosensor gene and protein levels and causes a moderate fast-to-slow fiber type switch in mice KU Leuven
Mechanosensing and subsequent mechanotransduction are indispensable for muscle plasticity. Nevertheless, a scarcity of literature exists regarding an all-encompassing understanding of the muscle mechanosensing machinery's response to prolonged loading, especially in conditions that resemble a natural physiological state of skeletal muscle. This study aimed to comprehensively explore the effects of prolonged mechanical loading on mechanosensitive ...
