Myotendinous junction: a microenvironment favorable for short-term adaptations to resistance training following gastrocnemius muscle atrophy

The myotendinous junction (MTJ) is an interface region between the skeletal muscle fibers and the tendon, specialized in force transmission, and has a wide capacity to adapt to different stimuli. Disuse muscle atrophy is a deleterious effect of joint immobilization, which is used as a conservative t...
