Muscle-specific Expression of Erry in the Myostatin Null Background Leads to the Development of Hypertrophied Oxidative Muscle

A fundamental concept of skeletal muscle proposes an inverse relation between oxidative metabolic potential of muscle fiber and its cross-sectional area (CSA). The dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) play a vital role in transducing the contractile force of myofibrils as well as mitigating contraction-induced damage. Aims: Investigate the relationships between muscle fibersize and oxidative capacity, and muscle fiber-phenotype with DGC....
