Plasticity changes in iron homeostasis in hibernating Daurian ground squirrels (Spermophilus dauricus) may counteract chronically inactive skeletal muscle atrophy
Disuse-induced muscular atrophy is frequently accompanied by iron overload. Hibernating animals are a natural animal model for resistance to disuse muscle atrophy. In this paper, we explored changes in skeleta...
