January 2021 in “Current Research in Physiology” This study found that high levels of μ-crystallin in skeletal muscle are associated with greater fat metabolism and a shift in gene expression towards slower muscle function.
January 2002 in “中国人民解放军军医大学学报：英文版” This study found that real-time 2-D Doppler echo of intracardiac blood flow helps evaluate myocardial infarction severity, with persistent late systolic inflow indicating worse left ventricular function.

May 2013 in “American Journal of Physiology-endocrinology and Metabolism” This study found that mice lacking myelin protein zero-like 3 (Mpzl3) had reduced body weight and adiposity despite increased food intake, which was linked to higher energy expenditure and improved glycemic control.
This study found that Smad4 is crucial for satellite cell amplification during skeletal muscle regeneration, with aged cells exhibiting less Smad4 and reduced regenerative capability in mice.
