Skeletal Muscle

R. D. Griffiths; T. Bongers; A. McArdle

Skeletal muscle is a significant player in MOF, showing marked metabolic and structural changes and contributing to the metabolic and inflammatory fluxes in the body. Muscle function is severely compromised, but muscle is a resilient organ and shows an excellent ability to recovery. As a highly plastic organ, muscle shows marked adaptation to activity levels and immobility, and in situations of whole body stress provides a major store of amino acids through controlled degradation. However, muscle provision of certain, conditionally essential amino acids can become limiting. The opportunity for specific nutritional interventions is encouraging.
