## Abstract Titin, an elastic and giant myofibrillar protein, is responsible for generating passive tension and maintaining sarcomere structure in striated muscles. Several studies have reported attenuation of passive tension and disorganization of sarcomere in atrophic muscles, but the changes of

There are several differences between red and white muscles submitted to different experimental conditions, especially following denervation: a) denervation atrophy is more pronounced in red than white muscles; b) the size of the fibers in the red muscles does not vary between different parts of the
## Abstract Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) is a good method to investigate tissue microcirculation, but it has many standardization and measuring problems. To exclude these effects, we performed a test using LDF on rat skeletal muscle. In 12 CD outbred anesthetized rats, bilateral femoral vessels an
The dental pulp has the capacity to initiate and maintain repair after trauma. The purpose of the present study was to quantitatively analyze the role of the peripheral nervous system in regulation of pulpal cell proliferation in response to wounding. Six groups of ten rats were used in these studie
