1/ Ever wondered how lifting weights makes muscles grow? 💪Our latest study reveals that mTORC1 doesn’t always hold the key. Full breakdown + preprint in this thread 👇 https://t.co/WqkBT4Cvwj

1/10 Excited to write this thread summarizing our new paper in @NatMetabolism, which identifies a potentially critical part of the signaling pathway that drives skeletal muscle growth in response to resistance exercise! Free link https://t.co/JWca6dVU2a #Myotwitter @NIH_NIAMS

Our new preprint is out "Identification of a Resistance Exercise-Specific Signaling Pathway that Drives Skeletal Muscle Growth". Collaborative project with @Coon_Labs and @mackinprof that took 8 years to finish. Hopefully you think it was worth the wait

Interested in the mechanisms that regulate myogenesis? If so, I think that you will enjoy our recent study in which we explore why the expression of TRIM28 in satellite cells is required for regeneration. The KO phenotype is simply stunning 1/ https://t.co/jIoPUvQK9V

Really happy to see this paper finally out in the world! Satellite cell-derived TRIM28 is pivotal for mechanical load- and injury-induced myogenesis | EMBO reports

I’m very excited to share our new method for the imaging and automated analysis of myofibrils (FIM-ID). With the use of common lab equipment and open-source software, we discovered that mechanically induced hypertrophy is largely mediated by myofibrillogenesis #myotwitter #muscle

I'm very excited to share the 2.5 min long video abstract and preprint link to our manuscript that describes a highly translatable mouse model of progressive resistance exercise https://t.co/E0zhiMtLfo

Just watched #Icarus on Netflix. Absolutely incredible. Draws into question the validity of testing for doping in sport
