| Abstract |
Skeletal muscle is a dynamic tissue with remarkable plasticity. Skeletal muscle growth and regeneration are highly organized processes thus it is not surprising that a high degree of complexity exists in the regulation of these processes. Recent discovery of non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs) has prompted extensive research in understanding the roles of these molecules in skeletal muscle. Research so far shows that miRNAs play a very significant role at every aspect of muscle biology. Besides muscle growth, development, and regeneration miRNAs are also involved in the pathology of muscle diseases and metabolism. In this review, recent advancements in miRNA function during myogenesis, exercise, atrophy, aging, and dystrophy are discussed. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 August 2017.
All research outputs
#6,272,272
of 22,757,541 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Physiology
#2,946
of 13,560 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#74,248
of 305,255 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Physiology
#27
of 106 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,757,541 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,560 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 305,255 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 106 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% of its contemporaries.
