Contractile Activation in Frog Skeletal Muscle
Contractile activation was studied in frog single muscle fibers treated with tetrodotoxin to block action potentials. The membrane potential in a short segment of the fiber was controlled with a two-electrode voltage clamp, and the contractile response of superficial myofibrils in this segment was observed microscopically. The strength-duration relation for contractile activation was similar to...
متن کاملContractile properties of isolated muscle spindles of the frog.
Force and isotonic shortening velocities were studied (0.6-4.0 degrees C) in isolated single muscle spindles from the anterior tibialis muscle of Rana temporaria using techniques that enabled measurements both from the spindle as a whole and from marked segments of the preparation. The force-velocity relationship during tetanic stimulation exhibited the same biphasic shape as previously describ...
متن کاملLocal movement in stimulated frog sartorius muscle
Local movement was recorded in tetanically contracting frog sartorius muscle to estimate the nonuniformity in the distribution of compliance in the muscle preparation and the compliance that resides in the attachments of the preparation to the measuring apparatus. The stimulated muscle was also subjected to rapid length changes, and the local movements and tension responses were recorded. The r...
متن کاملSpectrophotometric studies on the pH of frog skeletal muscle. PH change during and after contractile activity
The spectral characteristics of the pH-sensitive dyes neutral red (NR) and bromcresol purple (BCP) were utilized for studies of the changing intracellular pH (pHi) of sartorius muscles from Rana pipiens, both during the course of an isometric twitch and during recovery metabolism subsequent to a train of twitches. The information from the two dissimilar dyes correlated to confirm the methodolog...
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...
