Masticatory Functional Load Increases the mRNA Expression Levels of ACTN2 and ACTN3 and the Protein Expression of α-Actinin-2 in Rat Masseter Muscle
{{output}}
Objectives: α-actinins play structural and regulatory roles in cytoskeletal organization. They form a lattice structure that secures actin in thin filaments, which generate and transmit muscle contractile forces. The morphologic... ...
