Abstract:

In the human muscular system, each muscle can regulate its compliance, all of the muscles act in opposition to each other, and certain muscles act on several joints. This mechanism serves for skillful human motions. To realize an improved manipulator, we implemented this mechanism into our manipulator which has a musculo-skeletal mechanism similar to a human forearm. The manipulator is driven by the tendon-driven system where the actions of the tendon-driven system are similar to those of the human muscular system. The manipulator has 2 D.O.F and is driven by three contending wires. In additio

Abstract:

There were studied working conditions and the state of the muscular-skeletal system in employees of the oil industry. Working conditions of employees of basic occupations are referred to the hazard Class 3.1 - 3.3. Significant physical exertion with the predominant load on the lumbar-sacral area, constrained posture, the exposure to the general vibration and adverse weather conditions contribute to the development of diseases of the muscular-skeletal and peripheral nervous system. The most perspective trend in solving problems of diseases of the muscular-skeletal system is the implementation o

Abstract:

The muscular dystrophies or muscle-wasting diseases include a diverse group of genetic disorders, which result in progressive degeneration of skeletal muscles, progressive muscle weakness, and comorbid multi-system involvement. Duchenne muscle dystrophy is the most common type of muscular dystrophy with a reported incidence of 1 in every 3500–6000 male live births in the United States. Given the progressive nature of these disorders, skeletal muscle weakness frequently progresses to loss of the ability to ambulate and perform functions of daily life.

Abstract:

Musculoskeletal system is a complex assembly of tissues which acts as scaffold for the body and enables locomotion. It is often overlooked that different components of this system may biomechanically interact and affect each other. Skeletal dysplasias are diseases predominantly affecting the development of the osseous skeleton. However, in some cases skeletal dysplasia patients are referred to neuromuscular clinics prior to the correct skeletal diagnosis. The muscular complications seen in these cases are usually mild and may stem directly from the muscle defect and/or from the altered interac

Growing evidence demonstrates the crosstalk between the immune system and the skeletal muscle in inflammatory muscle diseases and dystrophic conditions such as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), as well as during normal muscle regeneration. The rising of inflammation and the consequent activation of the immune system are hallmarks of DMD: several efforts identified the immune cells that invade skeletal muscle as CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, Tregs, macrophages, eosinophils and natural killer T cells.

Abstract:

Chronic non-infectious diseases are the leading cause of premature death according to the WHO data. This review considers the evolution of studying and modern views of domestic and foreign authors on the role of skeletal muscles in maintaining health and preventing chronic non-infectious diseases. An idea regarding the nervous and reflex influence from the working muscles on both individual organs and the body as a whole is presented. The role of myokines, specific proteins produced by skeletal muscles, capable of influencing the state of many organs and systems, is described.

ZEB1 is a transcription factor best known for its role in cancer progression and metastasis. It is also expressed during embryonic development of different tissues although its function and mechanism of action have not always been elucidated. In this dissertation I show that ZEB1 is involved in muscle differentiation during embryonic development and it is also required for muscle response after injury and regeneration. We found that, in the nucleus of myoblasts, ZEB1 represses muscle differentiation genes through direct binding to G/C-centered E-boxes present in the regulatory regions of mu

Physical interaction with tools is ubiquitous in functional activities of daily living. While tool use is considered a hallmark of human behavior, how humans control such physical interactions is still poorly understood. When humans perform a motor task, it is commonly suggested that the central nervous system coordinates the musculo-skeletal system to minimize muscle effort. In this paper, we tested if this notion holds true for motor tasks that involve physical interaction. Specifically, we investigated whether humans minimize muscle forces to control physical interaction with a circular kin
