Heat produced by rabbit papillary muscle during anoxia and reoxygenation.
Resting heat rate was measured in superfused rabbit papillary muscles at 20 degrees C during 40 minutes of anoxia and subsequent reoxygenation. To reveal the nature of the reactions underlying energy output under such conditions, the data obtained were compared with values predicted from data on chemical change. Before and after the anoxic period, muscles were stimulated at 0.2 Hz, during which...
متن کاملHeat released during relaxation equals force-length area in isometric contractions of rabbit papillary muscle.
It has been claimed that the mechanical performance and the related energy turnover of the left ventricle can be reliably predicted on the basis of its time-varying elastance behavior. In its most elementary form, this behavior can be mathematically described by E(t) = P(t)/[V(t)-Vd], where E is ventricular elastance, t is time, P is ventricular pressure, V is ventricular volume, and Vd is the ...
متن کاملEffects of calcium and sodium on cardiac contractility and heat production in rabbit papillary muscle.
The effects of altering the concentrations of sodium (Na) and calcium (Ca + ) ions on the isometric energy output of rabbit papillary muscle at room temperature were examined by a myothermic technique. The well-known inotropic changes resulting from these alterations were not correlated with parallel changes in the magnitude of the tension-independent heat. Instead, the magnitude of the tension...
متن کاملSarcomere length-tension relations in living rat papillary muscle.
Small papillary muscles about 2 mm long and 0.2 mm thick were dissected from the right ventricles of 16-19 day-old rats. Resting (between twitches) and active (at twitch peaks) striation patterns were photographed in living muscles using a light microscope. External muscle length was varied from Lmax, the length at which peak twitch tension was maximum, to 0.75Lmax, the length at which peak twi...
متن کاملAdjustable passive length-tension curve in rabbit detrusor smooth muscle.
Until the 1990s, the passive and active length-tension (L-T) relationships of smooth muscle were believed to be static, with a single passive force value and a single maximum active force value for each muscle length. However, recent studies have demonstrated that the active L-T relationship in airway smooth muscle is dynamic and adapts to length changes over a period of time. Furthermore, our ...
