Effects of passive stretching on muscle injury and HSP expression during recovery after immobilization in rats.
OBJECTIVE Stretching exercise is known to induce muscle hypertrophy and is implicated in the modulation of muscle fiber behavior. We aim to determine whether stretching exercise is protective against reloading-induced muscle damage in immobilized rat soleus muscle. METHODS Rat hindlimbs in 54 eight-week-old male Wistar rats were immobilized by cast for 4 weeks, followed by reloading alone thr...
متن کاملExtracellular matrix: Composition and Remodelling
Introduction The extracellular matrix is a network of proteins and carbohydrates that supports and surrounds the cells in connective tissues. In addition to their structural-mechanical functions ECM molecules regulate diverse cellular functions, and play a significant role in several physiological and pathological processes, such as embryonic development, inflammation and wound healing, hemosta...
متن کاملAltered reflex sensitivity after repeated and prolonged passive muscle stretching.
Experiments were carried out to test the effect of prolonged and repeated passive stretching (RPS) of the triceps surae muscle on reflex sensitivity. The results demonstrated a clear deterioration of muscle function immediately after RPS. Maximal voluntary contraction, average electromyographic activity of the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles, and zero crossing rate of the soleus muscle (record...
متن کاملExtracellular Matrix Remodelling in Copd
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory disease that involves major remodelling of cells and tissue in the lung. There has been much focus on the inflammatory response, while less attention has been paid to structural changes and alterations of the extracellular matrix (ECM). In this review we revisit some of the latest findings on what is currently known about EC...
متن کاملEarly passive motion versus immobilization after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
PURPOSE To provide a synthesis of the highest-quality literature available comparing early passive motion (EPM) with strict sling immobilization during the first 4 to 6 weeks after surgery. METHODS The Medline, Cochrane, and Embase databases were searched for eligible studies. We reviewed 886 citations, and 5 randomized clinical trials (RCTs) (Level II) met the inclusion criteria for meta-ana...
