~2.5 yrs ago @HornbergerLab asked me a simple question, “do I think fast fibers atrophy with age because the myofibrils get smaller or are lost?” My response, “I don’t know, but we could find out with your new FIM-ID approach.” 👇 is what we discovered! #myotwitter

1/ Why do muscles atrophy with aging and disuse? Is it because each tiny little myofibril gets smaller… or is it because we lose myofibrils? In our new study, we addressed this in humans and mice. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… Full breakdown of the findings in this thread 👇

Beautiful sequence of studies by @HornbergerLab that continues to redefine our understanding of how muscle grows in response to mechanical stimuli! The data on fiber lengthening also have very important ramifications for how we interpret IHC data. Congratulations all! #myotwitter

Thrilled to share our new @ScienceAdvances paper where we provide evidence that mechanical stimuli drive skeletal muscle growth through TWO distinct mechanisms—and use BONCAT to visualize where the growth occurs. Take a look: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Congratulations to @Zepeda_CS for completing the first big study of his dissertation. Some thought provoking results on the role of #myonuclei in fiber type-specific #atrophy with #aging! #myotwitter
Carlos Zepeda@Zepeda_CS

Excited to share that the first study of my dissertation is now available on bioRxiv! Huge thank you to @CWSundberg, collaborators @KevinMurachPhD @CoryDungan, and everyone else involved for their help with the project! biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Thrilled to have officially moved my lab to @UWMadison! Looking forward to collaborating with amazing colleagues in #aging, #skeletalmuscle, and #metabolism research, and to being part of the RISE-THRIVE initiative's focus on improving human healthspan.
University of Wisconsin Department of Medicine@uw_medicine

Recruited through the WI RISE-THRIVE Initiative, which focuses on the study of healthspan, Dr. Christopher Sundberg is investigating links between muscle fatigue, mobility and healthy aging. Read a Q&A with him: medicine.wisc.edu/news/01092026-…

Very excited to share that the Integrative Muscle Physiology & Energetics (IMPE) lab is moving to the University of Wisconsin (@UWMadison)! My lab team thinks we should change to the WIMPE lab, studying #aging #muscle at #Wisconsin. What do you think? #myotwitter

@HornbergerLab @UWMadison Excited to be only 5 minutes away from you and your lab, Troy. Reeling in those catfish on Mendota might make me feel WIMPE!

@CWSundberg @UWMadison Can’t wait to see you and the new lab in Madison. Not sure if WIMPE is right though. Anyone that has ever met you knows that you ain’t WIMPE.
