Synthesis and degradation of muscle collagen during immobilization, glucocorticoid treatment and in neuromuscular diseases

Abstract To investigate the turnover of type IV collagen in skeletal muscle in conditions where muscle function is impaired, type IV collagen and proteins regulating its degradation were studied during 1, 3 and 7 days of immobilization, 3- and 10-day glucocorticoid treatment and in neuromuscular di...
