For muscle devotees, here is an old book on the history of muscle physiology, spanning from the 6th Cent. BC to the mid 1700s. It's a dry, but interesting, read on the history and philosophy of medicine with an emphasis on muscle and movement. Not sure if still available.
Autophagy gene expression in skeletal muscle of older individuals is associated with physical performance, muscle volume and mitochondrial function in the study of muscle, mobility and aging (SOMMA)
This new pre-print from Clara Franzini-Armstrong is an amazing resource (download the suppl. files for images):

paper on the understudied polyamine pathway in skeletal muscle, expanding the potential mTORC1-regulated network that supports overload-induced protein synthesis and growth, with interesting regulation in denervation-induced atrophy.
Age-related changes in human skeletal muscle transcriptome and proteome are more affected by chronic inflammation and physical inactivity than primary aging
See our new MCP paper that is the first to combine quantitative proteomics and ubiquitinomics with overexpression of an E3 ligase that leads to muscle atrophy (Asb2b). There are some fascinating changes to protein ubiquitination (see titin in graph below)
Interesting new mTOR/muscle paper:
