CaMKII Protein Expression and Phosphorylation in Mouse Skeletal Muscle Following Atrophy and Hypertrophy
(East Carolina University, 2012)The maintenance of skeletal muscle mass is vital for life, and elucidation of the molecular mechanisms that control this process is a critical first step towards the development of pharmaceutical treatments for muscle ... -
Does AMP-Activated Protein Kinase Negatively Mediate Aged Fast-Twitch Skeletal Muscle Mass?
(East Carolina University, 2008-10)The activity of 5'-adenosine monophosphate–activated protein kinase, a negative regulator of cell size, is up-regulated with age in resting and overloaded fast-twitch skeletal muscle but not slowtwitch muscle. Here, we ... -
Impact of Muscle Material Properties on the Hypertrophic Response of Aged Women to Resistance Exercise
(East Carolina University, 2016-07-21)All of the reports that comprise this dissertation center around the overarching hypothesis that the attenuated response to resistance exercise observed in older adults is caused by an impaired ability of the muscle to ...
