Comparative effects of aging on pharyngeal and diaphragm muscles

We hypothesized that aging is associated with alterations in pharyngeal muscle structural and contractile properties. Sternohyoid and geniohyoid muscles from young (3–4 months) and old (20–21 months) Fischer 344 rats were compared with diaphragm muscle. The pharyngeal muscles had significantly lower...
