    Agbulut O, Noirez P, Butler-Browne G, Jockusch H. Specific isomyosin proportions in hyperexcitable and physiologically denervated mouse muscle. FEBS LETTERS. 2004;561(1-3):191-194.We show here, by high resolution sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis, that the proportions of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms of mouse muscles are specifically shifted by hereditary neuromuscular diseases. In wild-type and dystrophic MDX anterior tibial muscle (TA) about 60% of the MyHC is IIB, 30% IIX, at most 10% IIA and < 2% type I (slow). In myotonic fast muscles, hyperexcitability leads to a drastic reduction of MyHC IIB which is compensated by IIA. Slow muscles, like soleus and diaphragm, were only marginally changed by myotonia. The MyHC pattern of TA of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) 'wobbler' mice is shifted to a faster phenotype, with nearly 90% IIB. In the SMA mutant 'muscle deficient', all four adult isomyosins are expressed in the TA. These findings may be relevant for the future diagnosis of neurological disorders both in mouse disease models and in human patients.

    A review of probabilistic analysis in orthopaedic biomechanics

    No full text
    Probabilistic analysis methods are being increasingly applied in the orthopaedics and biomechanics literature to account for uncertainty and variability in subject geometries, properties of various structures, kinematics and joint loading, as well as uncertainty in implantalignment. As a complement to experiments, finite element modelling, and statistical analysis, probabilistic analysis provides a method of characterizing the potential impact of variability in parameters on performance. This paper presents an overview of probabilistic analysis and a review of biomechanics literature utilizing probabilistic methods in structural reliability, kinematics, joint mechanics, musculoskeletal modelling, and patient-specific representations.The aim of this review paper is to demonstrate the wide range of applications of probabilistic methods and to aid researchers and clinicians in better understanding probabilistic analyses

    In vivo Myogenic Potential of Human CD133+ Muscle-derived Stem Cells: A quantitative Study

    No full text
    In recent years, numerous reports have identified in mouse different sources of myogenic cells distinct from satellite cells that exhibited a variable myogenic potential in vivo. Myogenic stem cells have also been described in humans, although their regenerative potential has rarely been quantified. In this study, we have investigated the myogenic potential of human muscle-derived cells based on the expression of the stem cell marker CD133 as compared to bona fide satellite cells already used in clinical trials. The efficiency of these cells to participate in muscle regeneration and contribute to the renewal of the satellite cell pool, when injected intramuscularly, has been evaluated in the Rag2-/- γC-/- C5-/- mouse in which muscle degeneration is induced by cryoinjury. We demonstrate that human muscle-derived CD133+ cells showed a much greater regenerative capacity when compared to human myoblasts. The number of fibers expressing human proteins and the number of human cells in a satellite cell position are all dramatically increased when compared to those observed after injection of human myoblasts. In addition, CD133+/CD34+ cells exhibited a better dispersion in the host muscle when compared to human myoblasts. We propose that muscle-derived CD133+ cells could be an attractive candidate for cellular therapy
