Induction of functional tissue-engineered skeletal muscle constructs by defined electrical stimulation
Electrical impulses are necessary for proper in vivo skeletal muscle development. To fabricate functional skeletal muscle tissues in vitro, recapitulation of the in vivo niche, including physical stimuli, is crucial. Here, we report a technique to engineer skeletal muscle tissues in vitro by electrical pulse stimulation (EPS). Electrically excitable tissue-engineered skeletal muscle constructs ...
متن کاملA ribonuclease from human skeletal muscle.
1. A ribonuclease has been prepared from human muscle by ammonium sulphate fractionation, heat treatment and ion-exchange chromatography. 2. The enzyme degrades polycytidylic acid and polyuridylic acid to the nucleoside 3'-phosphates, with nucleoside 2':3'-cyclic phosphates as intermediates. Polyadenylic acid and polyguanylic acid are not attacked. 3. The enzyme has maximal activity at pH8.5. T...
متن کاملSkeletal muscle tissue engineering: strategies for volumetric constructs
Skeletal muscle tissue is characterized by high metabolic requirements, defined structure and high regenerative potential. As such, it constitutes an appealing platform for tissue engineering to address volumetric defects, as proven by recent works in this field. Several issues common to all engineered constructs constrain the variety of tissues that can be realized in vitro, principal among th...
متن کاملEffect of implantation on engineered skeletal muscle constructs.
The development of engineered skeletal muscle would provide a viable tissue for replacement and repair of muscle damaged by disease or injury. Our current tissue-engineering methods result in three-dimensional (3D) muscle constructs that generate tension but do not advance phenotypically beyond neonatal characteristics. To develop to an adult phenotype, innervation and vascularization of the co...
متن کاملPersistence of functional sympatholysis post-exercise in human skeletal muscle
Blunting of sympathetic vasoconstriction in exercising muscle is well-established. Whether it persists during the early post-exercise period is unknown. This study tested the hypothesis that it persists in human skeletal muscle during the first 10 min of recovery from exercise. Eight healthy young males (21.4 ± 0.8 yrs, SE) performed 7 min of forearm rhythmic isometric handgrip exercise at 15% ...
