1. 1. Mechanochemical Modeling of Smooth Muscle Activation

   Författare :Sae-Il Murtada; Gerhard A. Holzapfel; Robert McMeeking; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biomechanics; Muscle contraction; Smooth muscle; Contractile unit; Filament overlap; Intracellular calcium; Carotid artery; Mathematical model;

   Sammanfattning : Smooth muscle has an important role in several physiological processes, where it regulates the wall tension and the size of hollow organs. In blood vessels, the contraction and relaxation of smooth muscle contribute to the mechanical stability of the vessel wall and determines the diameter. LÄS MER

3. 2. Regulation of carbohydrate metabolism in skeletal muscle during and after contraction

   Författare :Marie Sandström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Skeletal muscle; glucose transport; contraction; ROS; AMPK; glycogen phosphorylase; glycogen synthase;

   Sammanfattning : It is well known that exercise increases glucose transport into skeletal muscles. The regulation of this transport, however, is poorly understood. LÄS MER
