Properties of the fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum from fast twitch and slow twitch muscles.
Skeletal muscle of guinea pigs is composed of at least three types of fibers which are distinguishable by their kinetic and histochemical properties. Fast twitch muscles may be histochemically red or white; fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum (FSR) prepared from both types of fast twitch muscles has identical calcium-accumulating capacity (maximal calcium uptake) and calcium-concentrating ability...
متن کاملAnalysis of the rabbit cardiac/slow twitch muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA2) gene promoter.
The rabbit cardiac/slow twitch muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA2) gene encodes a Ca2+ transport pump whose expression is regulated during skeletal/cardiac muscle development and by different pathophysiological states of the heart. This study was designed to delineate cis-acting regulatory elements involved in SERCA2 gene expression. A series of unidirectionally deleted frag...
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 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 کاملExercise Myopathy: Changes in Myofibrils of Fast-twitch Muscle Fibres
The purpose of the present study was to determine the relationships between the changes of myofibrils in fast-twitch oxidative-glycolytic (type IIA) fibres and fast-twitch glycolytic (type IIB) muscle fibres, protein synthesis and degradation rate in exercise-induced myopathic skeletal muscle. Exhaustive exercise was used to induce myopathy in Wistar rats. Intensity of glycogenolysis in muscle ...
