It is possible to increase skeletal muscle fibre number in utero.

چکیده
The administration of porcine somatotropin (pST) to pregnant sows during early gestation (day 10 to 24) induced the formation of significantly more muscle fibres in the semitendinosus muscle of the fetuses, representing a higher growth capacity of skeletal muscle. The pST-treatment during late pregnancy (day 80 to 94) accelerated the development of the fetus resulting in higher body weights and advanced stage of maturity at birth.

Hyperplasia in Exercise-Induced Muscle Growth?
Compensatory growth in response to exercise is an important adaptation mechanism of skeletal muscles, as they become in this way able to move heavier mechanical loads. The increase of muscle mass is primarily the result of the increase of muscle fibre size (fibre hypertrophy). Whether increase of fibre number (hyperplasia) also contributes to compensatory growth is still matter of debate. This ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Resistance Training and Endothelial Stem Cell Injection on Βeta-Actin, Phosphorylated and Total AKT of Skeletal Muscle in Type 1 Diabetic Rats
Background: Type 1 diabetes is associated with decreased skeletal muscle capillary and improper regulation of angiogenesis pathways in skeletal muscle. This research intended to study the effect of resistance training and endothelial stem cell injection on βeta-actin, phosphorylated and total AKT of skeletal muscle in type 1 diabetic rats. Methods: In this experimental study, 36 male Wistar ra...
متن کاملEnvironmental and Genetic Factors as Sources of Variation in Skeletal Muscle Fibre Number
The understanding of skeletal muscle growth is an important goal in animal science and in human medicine. The purpose of this review is to demonstrate the importance of muscle fibre number for muscle growth and the influence of selected genetic and environmental factors on muscle fibre number. The total number of muscle fibres is mainly determined prenatally when multinucleated myofibres form f...
متن کاملEvaluation of Canonical Correlations between Masticatory Muscle Orientation and Craniodentofacial Morphology in 10-17 Year_Olds
Objectives: Different theories have been suggested to define factors involved in skeletal and craniofacial morphology. Many of these theories explain that the bone morphology is the result of the bone tissue capability to adapt in response to biomechanical forces exerted during growth. Also, it seems logical to hypothesize that there is a relationship between biomechanical connections of muscle...
متن کاملThe effect of obidoxime on reversal or prevention of paraoxon-induced changes in the function of Chicken biventer cervices nerve-muscle preparation
Paralysis of skeletal muscles, which can lead to paralysis of respiratory muscles and death, is one of the most toxic effects of organophosphates (OPs), and oximes are the only available antidotes that can reverse or prevent such toxic effects. In the present study, the possible reversal or preventive effect of different concentrations of obidoxime (toxogonin) on changes induced by paraoxon (as...
