Very nice figure showing the fiber type composition of hindlimb muscles in mice. Notice the very high proportion of type IIb fibers in most muscles, a fiber type that does not exist in humans.

Excited to share that our preprint characterizing a novel protracted model of lung cancer cachexia is now live 👀 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Novel preclinical model of human lung cancer cachexia: evidence for early adipose tissue wasting

Background Cancer cachexia (CC), a syndrome characterized by skeletal muscle and adipose tissue wasting, reduces responsiveness to therapies and increases morbidity and mortality. Lung cancer is the...

Beautiful mitochondria aplenty!!! Interesting that ambient O2 had no effect - when your mito density is so high, maybe no room for more?

It’s #EMmonday and we’re looking at moth flight muscle by TEM. @sarawilmsen and Edward Dzialowski find no major differences in morphometrics of flight muscle of M. sexta raised in hypoxia, normoxia or hyperoxia. 📖@J_Exp_Biol journals.biologists.com/jeb/… journals.biologists.com/jeb/…
