AMP Deaminase 3 in Skeletal Muscle Atrophy: Regulation of Protein Degradation and Contractile Performance
(East Carolina University, 2015-11-23)
Skeletal muscle atrophy is characterized by depressed cellular energetics, increased rates of protein degradation, contractile deficits and loss of muscle mass. A potential regulator of these impairments is the metabolic ...
