... Abstract There is mounting evidence suggesting a genetic contribution to the susceptibility of sustaining a musculoskeletal soft-tissue injury. To date, more than 70 loci have been implicated in several injury profiles. The genes implicated through these loci encode a broad spectrum of matrix...

... Abstract Genetic factors have been shown to associate with various exercise-related phenotypes, including exercise performance, adaptation to training and sports injuries. The genes implicated in the pathogenesis of musculoskeletal soft-tissue injuries all code for either structural components...

... Abstract Acute and overuse musculoskeletal soft tissues injuries are common as a result of participating in specific physical or workplace activities. Multiple risk factors, including genetic factors, are implicated in the aetiology of these injuries. Common musculoskeletal soft tissue injuries...

... Abstract Skin, musculoskeletal system and all organs of the body are supplied by nerve fibers ofthe somatic and autonomic nervous system, each of the systems with its specific nerve fibertypes, fiber composition, fiber density and targets. Experimental data support the hypothesisthat tumor...
