Muscle, Skeletal
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Muscle, Skeletal'A subtype of striated muscle, attached by TENDONS to the SKELETON. Skeletal muscles are innervated and their movement can be consciously controlled. They are also called voluntary muscles.

The role of CACNA1S in predisposition to malignant hyperthermia.
11 Oct 2009 
BACKGROUND: Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is an inherited pharmacogenetic disorder of skeletal muscle, characterised by an elevated calcium release from the skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. The dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) plays an essential ... Read more...
Ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 signaling regulates mammalian life span.
30 Sep 2009 Caloric restriction (CR) protects against aging and disease, but the mechanisms by which this affects mammalian life span are unclear. We show in mice that deletion of ribosomal S6 protein kinase 1 (S6K1), a component of the nutrient-responsive mTOR ... Read more...
Stance width and angle at sea: effects of sea state and body orientation.
29 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: On land, the distance and angle between the feet in side-by-side stance tend to have characteristic values. Ship motion mandates changes in the control of stance, but there have been no direct assessments of how stance width and angle ... Read more...
