Could cytoskeletal muscle damage have a higher PKC-alfa expression comparred to more myofibrillar muscle damage?

01 January 1970 0 9K Report

Could PKC-alfa be expressed more in relation to muscle damage to the wide muscle skeleton, rather than more central myofibrillar damage. Are there potential markers of specific muscle damage?
