This book provides a comprehensive
overview of skeletal muscle structure, function, and regulation at the
cellular and molecular levels. In addition, the book covers various
topics, such as muscle contraction, energy metabolism, fatigue,
adaptation, and plasticity. This book discusses skeletal muscle anatomy
and histology and then covers muscle contraction's molecular and
cellular mechanisms. Also, it includes an in-depth discussion of the
sarcomere, the basic unit of muscle contraction, and the role of
calcium in the process of muscle contraction.
This
book also explores the energy metabolism of skeletal muscle, including
the role of ATP, glycogen, and fatty acids in providing energy for
muscle contraction. Additionally, the book covers the mechanisms of
fatigue, including peripheral and central factors contributing to
muscle fatigue.
Other topics covered
include muscle adaptation to exercise, the molecular and cellular
mechanisms of muscle hypertrophy and atrophy, andthe influence of age,
sex, and disease on skeletal muscle function.
Overall,
Skeletal Muscle Physiology: An Update to Anatomy and Function
thoroughly explores the structure and function of skeletal muscle,
making it an essential resource for students and professionals in
exercise science, sports medicine, and physiology.
The
auto-summaries have been generated by a recursive clustering algorithm
via the Dimensions Auto-summarizer by Digital Science handled by
Subject Matter Experts and the external editor. The editor of this book
selected which SN content should be auto-summarized and decided its
order of appearance. Please be aware that the auto-summaries consist of
original sentences, but are not representative of its original paper,
since we do not show the full length of the publication. Please note
that only published SN content is represented here, and that
machine-generated books are still at an experimental stage.
