Mechanical Stretch and Electrical Stimulation in Mouse Skeletal Muscle in Vivo: Initiation of Hypertrophic Signaling

Skeletal muscle has an integral role in many activities. Although mechanical stretch and active force generation are known to be required for the maintenance of healthy muscle function, the mechanism by which those signals mediate muscle growth is unknown. This project was based on the hypothesis...
