Abstract:
Skeletal muscle mass, muscle fibre numbers per muscle, muscle fibre size, strength and the trainability of these factors all vary greatly in the general population. Twin studies suggest that probably more than 50% of this variation is explained by genetics. Genome-wide association studies in humans and gene manipulation experiments in mice have identified gene variants that affect muscle mass or function. In mice, the gain or loss-of-function of at least 47 genes significantly increase muscle ma...     »
