Neural agrin induces ectopic postsynaptic specializations in innervated muscle fibers.
Neural agrin, in the absence of a nerve terminal, can induce the activity-resistant expression of acetylcholine receptor (AChR) subunit genes and the clustering of synapse-specific adult-type AChR channels in nonsynaptic regions of adult skeletal muscle fibers. Here we show that, when expression plasmids for neural agrin are injected into the extrasynaptic region of innervated muscle fibers, th...
متن کاملExtrajunctional acetylcholine receptors on myogenously de=innervated muscle fibers.
EXTRAJUNCTIONAL ACETYLCHOLINE RECEPTORS ON MYOGENOUSLY DE-INNERVATED MUSCLE FIBERS Di ffuse extrajunct ional acetylcholine receptor (AChR) throughout the sarcolemma has been demon-strable in denervated (neurogenously de-innervated) skeletal muscle fibers pharmacologically by acetyl-choline sensitivity (1, 8) and morphologically by the binding of a-bungarotoxin (aBT) (5, 7, 9), in contrast to th...
متن کاملExpression of muscle-gene-specific isozymes of phosphorylase and creatine kinase in innervated cultured human muscle
Isozymes of creatine kinase and glycogen phosphorylase are excellent markers of skeletal muscle maturation. In adult innervated muscle only the muscle-gene-specific isozymes are present, whereas aneurally cultured human muscle has predominantly the fetal pattern of isozymes. We have studied the isozyme pattern of human muscle cultured in monolayer and innervated by rat embryo spinal cord explan...
متن کاملElectrophysiological study of human heart muscle.
• Attempts to record membrane potentials from the human heart exposed during surgery have been reported by Woodbury et al. and Bromberger-Barnea et al. In these studies, rather large variation in the amplitude and time course of the potentials was observed, perhaps related to the circumstances of working with flexibly mounted micro-electrodes on an exposed, contracting heart. The present experi...
متن کاملEnzyme patterns in single human muscle fibers.
Individual muscle fibers from the biceps of five individuals were analyzed for 10 different enzymes. For each person, lactic dehydrogenase and adenylokinase were first measured in 50 to 100 fibers. From each large group, 20 or more fibers, representing the full range of enzyme activity, were analyzed in duplicate for the other eight enzymes (glycogen phosphorylase, P-fructokinase, pyruvate kina...
