Acute disuse muscle atrophy in health and disease: an investigation of the timecourse, functional effects and a potential treatment strategy

Purpose Maintenance of skeletal muscle mass and function is essential for a healthy, long life. Episodes of reduced mobility may be associated with significant disuse muscle atrophy (DMA) and loss of function. It is increasingly suggested that the cumulative effect of these episodes through later...
