Effects of Functional Electrical Stimulation on Denervated Laryngeal Muscle in a Large Animal Model (2015)
Journal Article
Cheetham, J., Perkins, J. D. M., Jarvis, J. C., Cercone, M., Maw, M., Hermanson, J. W., …Ducharme, N. G. (2015). Effects of Functional Electrical Stimulation on Denervated Laryngeal Muscle in a Large Animal Model. Artificial Organs, 39(10), 876-885. https://doi.org/10.1111/aor.12624

Bilateral vocal fold paralysis (BVCP) is a life‐threatening condition that follows injury to the Recurrent Laryngeal nerve (RLn) and denervation of the intrinsic laryngeal musculature. Functional electrical stimulation (FES) enables restoration and c... Read More about Effects of Functional Electrical Stimulation on Denervated Laryngeal Muscle in a Large Animal Model.

HACD1, a regulator of membrane composition and fluidity, promotes myoblast fusion and skeletal muscle growth (2015)
Journal Article
Blondelle, J., Ohno, Y., Gache, V., Guyot, S., Storck, S., Blanchard-Gutton, N., …Pilot-Storck, F. (2015). HACD1, a regulator of membrane composition and fluidity, promotes myoblast fusion and skeletal muscle growth. Journal of Molecular Cell Biology, 7(5), 429-440. https://doi.org/10.1093/jmcb/mjv049

The reduced diameter of skeletal myofibres is a hallmark of several congenital myopathies, yet the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, we investigate the role of HACD1/PTPLA, which is involved in the elongation...
