Steep increase in myonuclear domain size during infancy.
We investigated whether myonuclear number increases in proportion to the increase in fiber size during maturational growth of skeletal muscle. Thoraco-abdominal muscle tissue was obtained from twenty 6-day to 15-year-old boys and girls during cardiothoracic surgery. Cross-sections were stained by anti-laminin for the basal lamina and by DAPI to identify nuclei. Basal lamina was traced on digita...
متن کاملIs the myonuclear domain size fixed?
It has been suggested that the number of myonuclei in a muscle fibre changes in proportion to the change in fibre size, resulting in a constant myonuclear domain size, defined as the cytoplasmic volume per myonucleus. The myonuclear domain size varies, however, between fibre types and is inversely related with the oxidative capacity of a fibre. Overall, the observations of an increase in myonuc...
متن کاملDevelopmental effects on myonuclear domain size of rat diaphragm fibers.
During early postnatal development in rat diaphragm muscle (Diam), significant fiber growth and transitions in myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoform expression occur. Similar to other skeletal muscles, Diam fibers are multinucleated, and each myonucleus regulates the gene products within a finite volume: the myonuclear domain (MND). We hypothesized that postnatal changes in fiber cross-sectional are...
متن کاملDenervation effects on myonuclear domain size of rat diaphragm fibers.
Denervation (DNV) of rat diaphragm muscle (DIAm) leads to selective atrophy of type IIx and IIb fibers, whereas the cross-sectional area of type I and IIa fibers remains unchanged or slightly hypertrophied. DIAm DNV also increases satellite cell mitotic activity and myonuclear apoptosis. Similar to other skeletal muscles, DIAm fibers are multinucleated, and each myonucleus regulates the gene pr...
متن کاملInfluence of corticosteroids on myonuclear domain size in the rat diaphragm muscle.
Skeletal muscle fibers are multinucleated. Each myonucleus regulates gene products and protein expression in only a restricted portion of the muscle fiber, the myonuclear domain (MND). In the rat diaphragm muscle (DIAm), corticosteroid (CoS) treatment causes atrophy of fibers containing myosin heavy chain (MHC): MHC2X and/or MHC2B. We hypothesized that DIAm fiber MND size is maintained during C...
