Influence of performance on gene expression in skeletal muscle: effects of forced inactivityJoint immobilization and hindlimb suspension are used to examine muscle protein expression and mRNA quantities in rats. A decrease in protein synthesis was not associated with alteration in alpha-actin mRNA, cytochrome c mRNA, or beta-myosin heavy chain mRNA early in treatment. Percentage declines after seven days are compared with early treatment quantities to determine acute and chronic response to muscular atrophy.
