Exploring mechanisms of disuse atrophy and optimal rehabilitation strategies for the restoration of muscle mass, structure & function

Disuse atrophy (DA) occurs during situations of unloading and is characterised by a loss of muscle mass and function. These reductions may be observed as early as 5 days into a period of unloading. While the reduction of muscle size is well studied, the reduction in muscle function is less well char...
