Introduction: Crotamine is a basic, low‐molecular‐weight peptide that, at low concentrations, improves neurotransmission in isolated neuromuscular preparations by modulating sodium channels. In this study, we compared the effects of crotamine and neostigmine on neuromuscular transmission in myasthenic rats. Methods: We used a conventional electromyographic technique in in‐situ neuromuscular preparations...
Introduction: The ability to view individual myofibers is possible with many histological techniques, but not yet with standard in vivo imaging. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an emerging technology that can generate high resolution 1–10 μm cross‐sectional imaging of tissue in vivo and in real time. Methods: We used OCT to determine architectural differences of tibialis anterior muscles in situ...
Introduction: Skeletal muscle regeneration following damage relies on proliferation and differentiation of muscle precursor cells (MPCs). We recently observed increased NF‐kB activity in vascular‐associated muscle resident pericytes following muscle damage in humans. We determined how altered NF‐kB activity in human primary pericytes (HPPs) affects their myogenic differentiation (cell‐autonomous effects),...
