Regulation of Ca2+ handling by phosphorylation status in mouse fast- and slow-twitch skeletal muscle fibers.
The effects of phosphorylation status on Ca2+release and Ca2+ removal were studied in fast-twitch flexor digitorum brevis and slow-twitch soleus skeletal muscle fibers enzymatically isolated from wild-type and phospholamban knockout (PLBko) mice. In all fibers the adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate-dependent protein kinase (PKA) inhibitor H-89 decreased the peak amplitude of the intracellular...
متن کاملSize and Proportions of Slow-Twitch and Fast-Twitch Muscle Fibers in Human Costal Diaphragm
Smaller diaphragmatic motor unit potentials (MUPs) compared to MUPs of limb muscles lead to the hypothesis that diaphragmatic muscle fibers, being the generators of MUPs, might be also smaller. We compared autopsy samples of costal diaphragm and vastus lateralis of healthy men with respect to fibers' size and expression of slow myosin heavy chain isoform (MyHC-1) and fast 2A isoform (MyHC-2A). ...
متن کاملFast and slow twitch units in a human muscle.
A study has been made of the isometric twitches of single motor units in the extensor hallucis brevis (EHB) muscle in man. The twitch contraction times ranged from 35 to 98 msec and the pooled results indicated the presence of at least two types of unit. The recorded twitch tensions also varied considerably (from 2 to 14 g) but were not related to the twitch speeds. The twitch tension developed...
متن کاملIntracellular calcium movements during excitation–contraction coupling in mammalian slow-twitch and fast-twitch muscle fibers
In skeletal muscle fibers, action potentials elicit contractions by releasing calcium ions (Ca(2+)) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Experiments on individual mouse muscle fibers micro-injected with a rapidly responding fluorescent Ca(2+) indicator dye reveal that the amount of Ca(2+) released is three- to fourfold larger in fast-twitch fibers than in slow-twitch fibers, and the proportion of t...
متن کاملChronic hypobaric hypoxia increases isolated rat fast-twitch and slow-twitch limb muscle force and fatigue.
Chronic hypoxia alters respiratory muscle force and fatigue, effects that could be attributed to hypoxia and/or increased activation due to hyperventilation. We hypothesized that chronic hypoxia is associated with phenotypic change in non-respiratory muscles and therefore we tested the hypothesis that chronic hypobaric hypoxia increases limb muscle force and fatigue. Adult male Wistar rats were...
