✦ Synopsis


Insulin binding was measured in rat muscle following denervation. There was a 40% reduction in the number of high-affinity insulin receptors, with no change in the insulin binding Kd. Selected muscles showed a 40%-60% reduction in weight during this period. The downregulation in the number of insulin receptors may contribute to the mechanism of muscle atrophy following denervation.

## Abstract Electron microscopic studies of long‐term denervated rat muscles have identified very small, immature myofibers that are believed to arise from detached satellite cells that have fused to form new fibers within the interstitial space. At present, it is unknown whether and to what extent
