This study compared the force output produced by variable frequency, short-duration trains (VFTs) of electrical pulses with the forces produced by constant frequency, short-duration trains (CFTs). Human quadriceps femoris muscle was stimulated with a 300-msec train of pulses once every second for 18

Variable-frequency trains that exploit the catchlike property of skeletal muscle can augment force production in fatigued skeletal muscle. The present study is the first to examine the effect of such trains during recovery. The quadriceps femoris muscles of 12 healthy individuals were fatigued using
## Abstract We found leptin to be strongly expressed in undifferentiated human myoblasts derived from biopsies of the thigh (Musculus vastus lateralis). Both mRNA expression and secretion of leptin were reduced during in vitro differentiation into primary myotubes. However, the expression of the le
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives There are some indications that lowβlevel laser therapy (LLLT) may delay the development of skeletal muscle fatigue during highβintensity exercise. There have also been claims that LED cluster probes may be effective for this application however there are d
The value of quantitative MR methods as potential biomarkers in neuromuscular disease is being increasingly recognized. Previous studies of the magnetization transfer ratio have demonstrated sensitivity to muscle disease. The aim of this work was to investigate quantitative magnetization transfer im
