Introduction: Age‐related decreases in tongue muscle mass and strength have been reported. It may be possible to prevent age‐related tongue muscle changes using neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES). Our hypothesis was that alterations in muscle contractile properties and myosin heavy chain composition would be found after NMES. Methods: Fifty‐four young, middle‐aged, and old 344/Brown Norway...
Alterations in neuromuscular junction (NMJ) structure in cranial muscles may contribute to age‐related deficits in critical sensorimotor actions such as swallowing. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is used in swallowing therapy, but it is unclear how NMJ structure is affected or if NMJ morphology is best measured in two or three dimensions. Two‐ and three‐dimensional measurements of NMJ...
