Metabolic and contractile protein expression in developing rat diaphragm muscle.
Progressive changes in myosin isozyme expression and in energy-generating enzyme activities were followed in the diaphragm and, for comparison, in axial and appendicular muscles of rats from 18 d gestation to maturity. Native myosins were characterized by pyrophosphate gel electrophoresis. Myosin heavy-chain (MHC) isozymes were measured with ELISA using monoclonal antibodies and were localized ...
متن کاملIsotonic contractile and fatigue properties of developing rat diaphragm muscle.
Postnatal transitions in myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoform expression were found to be associated with changes in both isometric and isotonic contractile properties of rat diaphragm muscle (Diam). Expression of MHCneo predominated in neonatal Diam fibers but was usually coexpressed with MHCslow or MHC2A isoforms. Expression of MHCneo disappeared by day 28. Expression of MHC2X and MHC2B emerged a...
متن کاملMyofibrillar protein oxidation and contractile dysfunction in hyperthyroid rat diaphragm.
The purpose of the present study was to test the hypothesis that administration of thyroid hormone [3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T(3))] could result in oxidation of myofibrillar proteins and, in turn, induce alterations in respiratory muscle function. Daily injection of T(3) for 21 days depressed isometric forces of diaphragm fiber bundles across a range of stimulus frequencies (1, 10, 20, 40, 7...
متن کاملCorticosteroid effects on isotonic contractile properties of rat diaphragm muscle.
The effects of corticosteroids (CS) on diaphragm muscle (Diam) fiber morphology and contractile properties were evaluated in three groups of rats: controls (Ctl), surgical sham and weight-matched controls (Sham), and CS-treated (6 mg . kg-1 . day-1 prednisolone at 2.5 ml/h for 3 wk). In the CS-treated Diam, there was a selective atrophy of type IIx and IIb fibers, compared with a generalized at...
متن کاملSalbutamol enhances isotonic contractile properties of rat diaphragm muscle.
The effects of the beta2-adrenoceptor agonist salbutamol (Slb) on isometric and isotonic contractile properties of the rat diaphragm muscle (Diamus) were examined. A loading dose of 25 microg/kg Slb was administered intracardially before Diamus excision to ensure adequate diffusion. Studies were then performed with 0.05 microM Slb in the in vitro tissue chamber. cAMP levels were determined by r...
