Activated skeletal muscle satellite cells facilitate muscle repair or growth through proliferation, differentiation and fusion into new or existing myotubes. Elevated levels of the proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) impair this...

Anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 fatty acids on murine skeletal muscle cell differentiation (2011)
Thesis
Magee, P. Anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 fatty acids on murine skeletal muscle cell differentiation. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Eicosapentaenoic acid (ERA) is an w-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid
(PUFA) with anti-inflammatory and anti-cachetic properties.
These properties have not previously been investigated
simultaneously with regards to skeletal muscle damage and
regenera... Read More about Anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 fatty acids on murine skeletal muscle cell differentiation.

The omega-3 fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), prevents the damaging effects of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha during murine skeletal muscle cell differentiation (2008)
Journal Article

Background: Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is a -3 polyunsaturated fatty acid with antiinflammatory
and anti-cachetic properties that may have potential benefits with regards to skeletal muscle atrophy conditions where inflammation is present. It is al...

Acute changes in knee-extensors torque, fiber pennation, and tendon characteristics. (2005)
Journal Article
Pearson, S., & Onambele, G. (2005). Acute changes in knee-extensors torque, fiber pennation, and tendon characteristics. Chronobiology International, 22(6), 1013-1027. https://doi.org/10.1080/07420520500397900

The aim of the current study was to examine the relationships between quadriceps torque, vastus lateralis pennation angle (theta), and patella tendon stiffness (K) at 07:45 and 17:45 h. Using short-duration static contractions, simultaneous recording... Read More about Acute changes in knee-extensors torque, fiber pennation, and tendon characteristics..

Automated speckle tracking in ultrasound images of tendon movements
Thesis
Mohamed, A. (in press). Automated speckle tracking in ultrasound images of tendon movements. (Thesis). University of Salford

The central aim of this thesis was to develop new tracking software employing various image tracking algorithms for tracking the speckled movement of the tendon image captured using dynamic B-mode ultrasound imaging. The algorithms were selected base... Read More about Automated speckle tracking in ultrasound images of tendon movements.
