SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Skeletal muscle is the most abundant tissue of our body. Apart from its essential role in locomotion, it is also the body??'s main store of carbohydrate and protein as well as being one of the principal generators of heat. Its proper maintenance and function are, therefore, essential. A severe acute loss of muscle function is potentially lethal and the debilitating effects of chronic decline in mobility are commonplace experience, so repair and maintenance of the tissue must by both rapid and effective. Since the middle of the last century we have progressively built up a comprehensive descrip.
