A process by which muscle adapts, with consequent modifications to structural and/or functional phenotypes, in response to a stimulus. Stimuli include contractile activity, loading conditions, substrate supply, and environmental factors. These adaptive events occur in both muscle fibers and associated structures (motoneurons and capillaries), and they involve alterations in regulatory mechanisms, contractile properties and metabolic capacities. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of muscle adaptation. A process, occurring in the muscle, that is characterized by a decrease in protein content, fiber diameter, force production and fatigue resistance in response to different conditions such as starvation, aging and disuse. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a muscle system process, a multicellular organismal process carried out by any of the organs or tissues in a muscle system. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of muscle atrophy. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of muscle atrophy. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of muscle atrophy.
