6. Skeletal muscle fiber types in man : With special reference to anabolic signaling and mitochondrial bioenergetics
Abstract : Human skeletal muscle consists of a mixture of slow-twitch (type I) and fast-twitch (type II) fibers. The type I fibers are endurance-oriented, with a metabolic system and infrastructure that supports aerobic metabolism. READ MORE

7. Energy metabolism in skeletal muscle during ischemia and reperfusion. Experimental and clinical aspects
Abstract : Microsurgical operations, using free vascularised transfer of tissues, induce an obligatory period of ischemia followed by reperfusion. The degree of ischemia and reperfusion injury is dependent on the ischemia time. READ MORE

8. Skeletal muscle plasticity and energy metabolism
Abstract : Skeletal muscle is remarkable in its ability to adjust to our needs. It can change its energy stores and usage, as well as its total mass. Furthermore, skeletal muscle adapts to deactivate reactive oxygen species produced, which in turn can both damage cells and convey signals. READ MORE

9. Skeletal muscle metabolism in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease : A study of carbohydrate and fat metabolism
Abstract : In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) deterioration of skeletal muscle metabolism is reported in both respiratory and non-respiratory muscles. This deterioration may contribute to both the development of respiratory failure and general disability often seen in severe COPD patients. READ MORE

10. Adrenergic signaling in insulin-sensitive tissues
Abstract : Glucose metabolism in insulin-sensitive tissues such as skeletal muscle and adipose tissue is tightly regulated by external stimuli. Metabolic changes in these tissues have direct effects on whole body metabolism. Such metabolic changes can be induced or influenced by adrenergic stimulation. READ MORE
