Creatine kinase MB in cases of skeletal muscle trauma.
Fifty-eight patients admitted through our emergency room with severe skeletal muscle injury but no obvious cardiac contusions were evaluated for creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK-MB). When such patients show an above-normal value for total CK, it is a question of whether or not myocardial injury has been sustained along with skeletal muscle injury when (a) there are no obvious chest contusions o...
متن کاملA Simplified Immunohistochemical Classification of Skeletal Muscle Fibres in Mouse
The classification of muscle fibres is of particular interest for the study of the skeletal muscle properties in a wide range of scientific fields, especially animal phenotyping. It is therefore important to define a reliable method for classifying fibre types. The aim of this study was to establish a simplified method for the immunohistochemical classification of fibres in mouse. To carry it o...
متن کاملOxidative modification and aggregation of creatine kinase from aged mouse skeletal muscle
Creatine kinase catalyzes the reversible transfer of the gamma phosphate from ATP to creatine forming the high energy compound creatine phosphate. Muscle creatine kinase (CKm) activity maintains energetic homeostasis as variations in energy requirements dictate that ATP be readily available. Recent studies suggest that CKm activity is altered during aging. Proteomic analyses have shown that CKm...
متن کاملOptogenetic control of contractile function in skeletal muscle
Optogenetic stimulation allows activation of cells with high spatial and temporal precision. Here we show direct optogenetic stimulation of skeletal muscle from transgenic mice expressing the light-sensitive channel Channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2). Largest tetanic contractions are observed with 5-ms light pulses at 30 Hz, resulting in 84% of the maximal force induced by electrical stimulation. We dem...
متن کاملChanges in contractile activation characteristics of rat fast and slow skeletal muscle fibres during regeneration.
Damaged skeletal muscle fibres are replaced with new contractile units via muscle regeneration. Regenerating muscle fibres synthesize functionally distinct isoforms of contractile and regulatory proteins but little is known of their functional properties during the regeneration process. An advantage of utilizing single muscle fibre preparations is that assessment of their function is based on t...
