Bruzina publishes in AJP-Cell Physiology
Dr. Angela Bruzina, recent SoK graduate, has published an article on research showing the protective effect of ovarian hormones on skeletal muscle after injury.
Angela Bruzina, PhD, a recent graduate of the School of Kinesiology and member of the Skeletal Muscle Plasticity and Regeneration Laboratory (SMPRL), directed by Sarah M. Greising, PhD, published an article “Loss of ovarian hormones modulates sex-specific metabolic adaptations to volumetric muscle loss” in the American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology. Co-authors of the article include lab members and colleagues William Juckett, PhD, Faezeh Mozafari (University of Georgia) Carlee Freeman, and Jarrod Call, PhD (University of Georgia), and Greising. The goal of this paper was to understand how ovarian hormones play a protective role in females during the sequelae of traumatic skeletal muscle injury.
