Abstract
Skeletal muscle is a hierarchical structure composed of multiple organizational scales. A major challenge in the biomechanical evaluation of muscle relates to the difficulty in evaluating the experimental mechanical properties at the different organizational levels of the same tissue. Indeed, the ability to integrate mechanical properties evaluated at various levels will allow for improved assessment of the entire tissue, leading to a better understanding of how changes at each level evolve over time and/or impact tissue function, especially in the case of muscle diseases. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyze a genetically engineered mouse model (Klf10 KO: Krüppel-Like Factor 10 knockout) with known skeletal muscle defects to compare the mechanical properties with wild-type (WT) controls at the three main muscle scales: the macroscopic (whole muscle), microscopic (fiber) and submicron (myofibril) levels. Passive mechanical tests (ramp, relaxation) were performed on two types of skeletal muscle (soleus and extensor digitorum longus (EDL)). Results of the present study revealed muscle-type specific behaviors in both genotypes only at the microscopic scale. Interestingly, loss of Klf10 expression resulted in increased passive properties in the soleus but decreased passive properties in the EDL compared to WT controls. At the submicron scale, no changes were observed between WT and Klf10 KO myofibrils for either muscle; these results demonstrate that the passive property differences observed at the microscopic scale (fiber) are not caused by sarcomere intrinsic alterations but instead must originate outside the sarcomeres, likely in the collagen-based extracellular matrix. The macroscopic scale revealed similar passive mechanical properties between WT and Klf10 KO hindlimb muscles. The present study has allowed for a better understanding of the role of Klf10 on the passive mechanical properties of skeletal muscle and has provided reference data to the literature which could be used by the community for muscle multiscale modeling.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of freezing time on the functional behavior of mouse muscle fibers. Passive mechanical tests were performed on single soleus muscle fibers from fresh (0 month) and preserved (stored at -20°C for 3, 6, 9 and 12 months) 3 month old mice. The Young's modulus and the dynamic and the static stresses were measured. A viscoelastic Hill model of 3rd order was used to fit the experimental relaxation test data. The statistical analysis corresponding to the elastic modulus of single muscle fibers did not differ when comparing fresh and stored samples for 3 and 6 months at -20 °C. From 9 months, fibers were less resistant and the mechanical properties were damaged. The primary goal of this study was to complete the gold standard process of muscle fiber preservation for subsequent mechanical property studies. We have demonstrated that muscle fibers can be stored at -20°C for up to 6 months without altering their mechanical properties.

Abstract
TGFbeta inducible early gene-1 (TIEG) was originally cloned from human osteoblasts (OB) and has been shown to play an important role in TGFbeta/Smad signaling, regulation of gene expression and OB growth and differentiation. To better understand the biological role of TIEG in the skeleton, we have generated congenic TIEG-null (TIEG(-/-)) mice in a pure C57BL/6 background. Through the use of DXA and pQCT analysis, we have demonstrated that the femurs and tibias of two-month-old female TIEG(-/-) mice display significant decreases in total bone mineral content, density, and area relative to wild-type (WT) littermates. However, no differences were observed for any of these bone parameters in male mice. Further characterization of the bone phenotype of female TIEG(-/-) mice involved mechanical 3-point bending tests, micro-CT, and histomorphometric analyses of bone. The 3-point bending tests revealed that the femurs of female TIEG(-/-) mice have reduced strength with increased flexibility compared to WT littermates. Micro-CT analysis of femurs of two-month-old female TIEG(-/-) mice revealed significant decreases in cortical bone parameters compared to WT littermates. Histomorphometric evaluation of the distal femur revealed that female TIEG(-/-) mice also display a 31% decrease in cancellous bone area, which is primarily due to a decrease in trabecular number. At the cellular level, female TIEG(-/-) mice exhibit a 42% reduction in bone formation rate which is almost entirely due to a reduction in double labeled perimeter. Differences in mineral apposition rate were not detected between WT and TIEG(-/-) mice. Taken together, these findings suggest that female TIEG(-/-) mice are osteopenic mainly due to a decrease in the total number of functional/mature OBs.
