Biomechanical response of skeletal muscle to eccentric contractions
The forced lengthening of an activated skeletal muscle has been termed an eccentric contraction (EC). This review highlights the mechanically unique nature of the EC and focuses on the specific disruption of proteins within the cell known as cytoskeletal proteins. The major intermediate filament cyt...
