Globally, traditional and herbal teas are a prominent dietary source of polyphenols, and
represent a class of bioactive molecules that are closely associated with a variety of health …

The contractile performance of mammalian fast twitch skeletal muscle is history dependent.
The effect of previous or ongoing contractile activity to potentiate force, ie increase isometric …

Background: In Canada, more than 2 million people live with osteoporosis, a disease that
increases the risk for fractures, which result in excess mortality and morbidity, decreased …

The increase in isometric twitch force observed in fast-twitch rodent muscles during or after
activity, known universally as potentiation, is normally associated with myosin regulatory light …

Contraction-induced activation of a skeletal muscle specific Ca 2+ and calmodulin dependent
myosin light chain kinase (skMLCK) catalyzes phosphorylation of the myosin regulatory …

The influence of moderately elevated extracellular potassium concentration ([K + ]) on muscle
force has marked similarities to that of posttetanic potentiation (PTP) in that twitch force …

The intent of this study was to determine if the stimulation-induced increase or “potentiation”
of dynamic function of mouse extensor digitorum longus muscle (in vitro 25C) during work …

Scope The effects of a long‐term high fat and sucrose diet (HFS) superimposed with aging
on bone and muscle structure and/or function. Methods and results Male C57BL/6J mice (20 …

The activity dependent potentiation of peak isometric force associated with phosphorylation
of the myosin regulatory light chain (RLC) is generally restricted to low activation frequencies…

Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) plays an important role in regulating carbohydrate oxidation
in skeletal muscle. PDH is deactivated by a set of PDH kinases (PDK1, PDK2, PDK3, PDK4)…
