📌 Tips for The Role of Antagonist Training 🏋️

Antagonist training focuses on working opposing muscle groups in tandem for example, pairing biceps (elbow flexors) with triceps (elbow extensors) or chest (pectorals) with back (latissimus dorsi).

📈 Balanced Muscle Development

💪 Improved Joint Stability

⚡️ Enhanced Performance

The neuromuscular system is highly plastic in early life. This study shows that brief #swim training in mouse pups accelerated swimming pattern acquisition & altered #motoneuron properties, revealing the sensitivity of the #neuromuscular system during development @PLOSBiology plos.io/3S3eRdp

Top: Schematic representation of the experimental protocol. For each training (1 to 4), trained mice realized five successive swimming sessions (S1 to S5) of 15 seconds separated by 45 second breaks twice a day (9 AM and 5 pm) on post-natal day 1 (P1) and P2. Untrained mice were tested only once either at P1 9 AM or P1 5 pm or P2 9 AM or P2 5 pm during two swimming sessions of 7 seconds each (S1 green box and S2 red box). The greatest number of limbs used during the first 7 seconds of each session was scored (motor score). Bottom left: representative confocal images of transverse tibialis anterior section from a P3 mouse, showing neurofilament (NF), α-bungatoxin (α-BTX,) and laminin labeling. Bottom right: representative image of NMJ detection (upper panel) and 3D reconstruction (lower panel) with Fiji. Calibration bars: 10 μm.

"Here we present an injectable tissue with instantaneous bidirectional electrical conduction in the system. The soft and injectable prosthesis is composed of a biocompatible with unique phenylborate-mediated multiple crosslinking, such as irreversible yet freely rearrangeable biphenyl bonds and reversible coordinate bonds with conductive gold formed in situ by cross-coupling"

Once there was an enby member of the royal family who had disowned the lot for their abusive ways and gone to live in a cave. One day, the muscle relaxer for their #neuromuscular disease interacted with their #ptsd medication and turned them into a zombie who slept 16 hours a day and moaned for brains the rest of the time and they ate everyone who came near the cave from then on, the end.

I need new #meds.

Streetartwall. On the outer wall of a six-story building is sprayed / painted a huge portrait of a woman in gray and dark gray. 20 meters high and 8 meters wide, a magnificent mural with a sad background.
She is depicted sideways, has long hair and her eyes closed. Her hands seem to be praying at first glance, but they are strangely twisted fingers inside each other. A bright yellow sun wreath appears around her head.
JDL: "It is a tribute to a friend who suffers from neuromuscular disease. I want to show that what she is is inside her, it doesn't need hands." (Le Télégramme). A tribute that conveys all the more emotion because it is on one of the walls of the emergency room of the hospital of Morlaix.

My journey with myasthenia gravis: a chronic autoimmune disease

Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease that causes weakness in the skeletal muscles, which are responsible for breathing and moving parts of the body, including the arms and legs.

Heather Finlay-Morreale is a pediatrician.

#disabilityawareness post! 🦓

I am #oneinamillion and if you're interested in #weird, #rare shit, #neurology and #neuroscience , here comes some brain food 🧠

I already did an #introduction post, but here's one introducing my #disability.
I'm the only person (it seems) to have ever mentioned it on Mastodon.

I challenge you to find a worse disease with a more ridiculous name than #stiffpersonsyndrome 😂

Because nobody has heard of this disease, I ask people to imagine #MS, #parkinand #MNDhad a baby. That's what it is like.

It is a #neuromuscular, #autoimmune #disease usually caused by #GAD antibodies which attack the #Gaba protein in the central nervous system.
The antibodies are usually associated with #T1 and #LADA diabetes.

#Symptoms include extreme muscle stiffness, rigidity and painful spasms, tremors, shakes, weakness, and cramps which can generate enough force to fracture bones. Mine are not this bad and I hope they never will be.

Those of us with #SPS have heightened sensitivity to noise, sudden movements, and emotional distress, which can set off #muscle spasms and pain.

I'm only 40 and it's been almost 2 years since I was diagnosed.
I try to stay pretty #positive because I don't see any other choice. I still try to stay #active and so the things I #love, even though the consequence is always pain.

#Movement is key to life.

Use it my #friends. Use it because you never know when you may lose it ❤

Humbled & grateful to be a 2022 @lundbeckfonden@Twitter Ascending Investigator recipient @AarhusUni@Twitter.

Excited to start work on this project that deciphers molecular mechanisms underlying #neuromuscular #disease development linked to E3-ubiquitin ligase dysfunction.
