The Effect of Variations in the Intra- and Extracellular Ion Concentrations upon the Electrical Activity of Normal and Dystrophic Mouse Skeletal Muscle

چکیده

The resting and action potentials of the m. gastrocnemii of normal and dystrophic mice have been measured in vitro, under various conditions of the ionic environment. The observed effects are consistent with the view that, when equilibrium is established between internal and external ionic concentrations, the resting potential is determined very largely, and perhaps entirely, by the gradient of K ions. Action potentials are associated with a greatly increased Na conductance in this as in other excitable tissues. No differences in electrical activity between normal and dystrophic muscle cells could be established.

P-75: The Effect of Hydrostatic Pressure in The Presence of Different Concentrations of Extracellular Calcium, Ethanol and Cytochalasin B on Parthenogenetic Activation of Mouse oocytes

Background: The parthenogenetic of oocytes is important in cloning research, as artificial activation of oocytes is an essential component of nucleus transfer protocols. Hydrostatic pressure can act as a mechanical stimulator that rearranges egg contents. Ethanol promotes a single intracellular Ca2+ increase of greater and longer amplitude than the initial increase observed at fertilization. In...

Zn (II) is an important regulator of caspase-3, as well as an antioxidant, microtubule stabilizer, growth cofactor, and anti-inflammatory agent. Over the past 30 years, many researchers have demonstrated the important role of Zn (II) in a variety of physiological processes, including growth and development, maintenance and priming of the immune system, and in tissue repair and regeneration. In...

Increased metabolic activity in muscle secondary to excessive muscle activity during the uptake phase and shortly before FDG injection is a known phenomenon. We present FDG PET/CT findings in a young male, known case of carcinoma maxilla His scan showed diffuse increased metabolic activity in multiple skeletal muscle groups. There was history of unaccustomed, strenuous sports activity of skiing...
