Title: Studies on atrophic change of soleus muscle and its countermeasures in suspended rat. Author: Zhuang XC, Sun YZ, Cui J, Zhu JM, Jiang C, Xiang QL, Li CS. Journal: J Gravit Physiol; 1994 May; 1(1):P61-3. PubMed ID: 11538765. Abstract: In the environment of microgravity, the disused atrophy of skeletal muscle, especially leg's muscle, would occur. The three purposes of this study were: 1. To observe the dynamic changes of disused atrophy of skeletal muscle under simulated weightlessness; 2. To approach the mechanism of disused atrophy of muscle; 3. To approach the countermeasures for reducing the degree of atrophy of muscle.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
