Instead of turkey, our protein purification team worked hard to get some heart proteins baked! 🫀🧫
Happy Thanksgiving from the Solis Lab! 🦃 #Biophysics #MyoTwitter

Special Issue: Cardiac, skeletal muscle and neuromuscular plasticity in disuse and inactivity: The Journal of Physiology: Vol 603, No 13 <em>The Journal of Physiology</em> publishes research in all areas of physiology and pathophysiology that illustrates new physiological principles or mechanisms.

Our Special Issue is live in J Physiology! w/ @mvfranchi.bsky.social & Prof. Paul Greenhaff “Cardiac, skeletal muscle and neuromuscular plasticity in disuse and inactivity”. So many great contributions! Add it to your reading list #myotwitter physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/14697793...

The CMR recognises #WorldSarcopeniaDay.
Interrogating ways to preserve muscle function as we age is a major theme of study in the CMR & our researchers continue to make contributions to the field.

We’re thrilled to announce that Stephen Tapscott, MD, PhD of @fredhutch.bsky.social will be delivering a Keynote Presentation, “Cell State Conversion in Development and Disease,” on October 6th! Learn more about Dr. Tapscott’s research in his bio below: tinyurl.com/MyogenesisSt... #myotwitter

SAVE THE DATE: "Frontiers in Myogenesis: Innovations in Myogenesis, From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Interventions" conference will be held October 6-11th 2025 in Sunriver, Oregon, USA at the Sunriver Resort. Registration & abstract submission is NOW OPEN! #myotwitter

It’s always such a pleasure to see @crand22.bsky.social from @aurorascientific.bsky.social this time at the Skeletal Muscle Biology Meeting at University of Florida! #Myotwitter #MyoBlue #Myology #Myofilament #Sarcomere

We had a great time at the UF Myology Meeting. We took this meeting by storm with 2 posters presented by Dr. Tigro and 1 poster by Rhiannon! 😎💪 #GoNoles #MyoTwitter #MyoBlue #Myofilament #Sarcomere

So it begins. We are at the Advances in Skeletal Muscle Biology meeting in Gainesville FL. Opening by UF Myology Institute director Lee Sweeney #MyoTwitter #MyoBlue

Large MAF Transcription Factors Reawaken Evolutionarily Dormant Fast-Glycolytic Type IIb Myofibers in Human Skeletal Muscle Small mammals rely on type IIb myofibers, expressing the fastest myosin IIb (encoded by MYH4 ), for rapid muscle contraction. In contrast, larger mammals, including humans, show reduced or absent MYH4...

Building upon our previous study published in Cell Rep (10.1016/j.celrep.2023.112289), which identified large Mafs as essential regulators of type IIb myofiber specification in mice, this work extends our understanding to humans. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

any suggestions for speakers on the topic of #n=1 trials in #neuromusculardisease #myopathy #myotwitter

here we go, move almost completed.

First things first: since I invented the #MyoTwitter, how about we start here a #MyoBlue?

👋 @bsky.app and #MyoBlue, so now I am here too, mostly due to FOMO in case the whole of the #MyoTwitter community had migrated without me😅 Looking forward to keeping in touch with #sciencefriends around the world!

I'll keep both going for a while but don't know if I can be bothered starting again. #MYOTWITTER is legendary!
