Tomohiro Yasuda, William F. Brechue, Taku Fujita, Yoshiaki Sato, Takashi Abe. (2008) Muscle Activation During Low-Intensity Muscle Contractions With Varying Levels of External Limb Compression.

The control of muscle contraction is usually described in terms of excitation–contraction coupling or muscle activation. Muscle relaxation has received much less attention, although its control is ...

Time under contraction is not directly measured in a typical weight training program. Most people really don't even think about the number of seconds a given muscle is forced to work. Indirectly, ...

Researchers capture the first 3-D images of the structure of a key muscle receptor, setting the stage for possible future treatments for muscular disorders The connections between the nervous system ...

Take a look at your bicep and picture it as a sponge filled with water. When you flex, the sponge contracts, squeezing out water. This simple analogy captures an intriguing new understanding of how ...

The flow of water within a muscle fiber may dictate how quickly muscle can contract, according to a new study. The flow of water within a muscle fiber may dictate how quickly muscle can contract, ...

During the peer-review process the editor and reviewers write an eLife assessment that summarises the significance of the findings reported in the article (on a scale ranging from landmark to useful) ...

Introduction: Skeletal muscle is responsible for multiple functions for maintaining energy homeostasis and daily activities. Muscle contraction is activated by nerve signals, causing calcium release ...
